Papatya in training for endurance racing

So Puppy has turned three this season and I'm celebrating with a training pic of her and Pip. Puppy will be undergoing the endurance training course at #HARPG-University's Equine Training Academy in preparation for her 5 yr endurance debut. This is the first stage of conditioning, 0-3 Months of training where she's just getting used to being ridden and pacing herself. Pip is her main rider / trainer, however someone will ride her every day out on Willowglen's surrounding woodland to build up her muscles. Not that anyone's complaining since she's such a darling.

On the image side of things, one of my favourite artists =nds-stock has recently inspired me with her bout of sketchy pictures to try some of my own. Despite having to drag my hand away from cleaning this up and lining it, I like the result and I am actually incredibly proud of this. Because its the first pic I haven't used a single reference for. I didn't glance at anything else, the trotting pose didn't need one, and amazingly I didn't even use one for Pip. You can tell, of course, but at the same time I don't care :dummy:
