Prepping for Sesenta Anos

Well after the radial fracture in April, nearly 6 months off, then a mild mishap with a hoof through the fence about 3 weeks ago - about the residual swelling from that the vet says - if he's sound the more work the better, so that is what we are doing. And Ozzie is in good form.

Went on a fabulous ride yesterday, for a good sweat out, and right at the start of our ride saw a gorgeous young bobcat sprint across the trail maybe about 50 feet in front of us, and go hide up a tree. We approached slowly and were able to see the amazing creature hanging out up in the tree, looking down at us. We said a little thanks for letting us see him, and off we went.

At first Ozzie was a bit sluggish, but part way in he seemed to remember his job. That he can drop manure while trotting, walk at a proper pace, and deal with his itchy face.

We are a go folks, looking good. He gets just turn out today after our ride yesterday, oh and a little spa day, of clipping his neck and belly.

See you next weekend out on the trail. Cheers.

After our great ride yesterday, after his wet, mash bucket and after a roll and a bath.
