I cantered him around the arena, before making him go back to the trot, and over the course. It felt good to jump Xanthos, he was SO much better than the schoolies I used to ride.

Xanthos gave a little buck, and I tapped him with my crop, which had been in my hand, waiting for him.

Xanthos put threw his head a little bit, but stopped the little bucking spree. I hated it when he bucks, but being so young....he does it all the time. Xanthos threw his head again, and I lightly played the slow-twist bit in his mouth.

I nodded and did as I was told.....she was not a trainer, but good enough. Xanthos circled and then I set him in a straight line, he canted perfectly. "Thanks." I called out.

I patted Xanthos a couple times, and Xanthos snorted, pricking his ears forward. I collected him and let him take the jumps.

Xanthos did perfectly, giving a wave of his tail at the end, but behaved. "Good, boy Xanthos." I smield and patted his neck. (pro: Zan-th-O-s)

haha, LOL, it was one of the horses names in Clockwork Prince (based in 1878) and they had two horses Xanthos and Ziel
I slowly put pressure on Xanthos's rein, and making him trot. I posted easily.

I sat the trot a few strides and told him to canter, using light leg aids. Xanthos cantered easily, and I went into light seat.
