just got back, I didn't fall off so that is something lol. I only walked and trotted though, I didn't canter him, definetly didn't jump. He doesn't seem to have any vices except tossing his head and putting it down quite a bit but he doesn't have his own tack apparently since he's for sale so maybe his saddle wasn't fitting right. His trot is verry bouncy, according to the guy a lot of tb types are like that? *shrug* my position is horrendous after 18 months of no riding! my lower leg was so swingy, really annoying, so that probably didn't help matters. he does move well of your leg though, like he'll do circles and move pretty much wherever with just leg and slack reins so I suppose that's a good thing. he's still quite thin and needs a lot of muscle.....I think they bought him from a dealer just to rescue him but they didn't say that, just that they'd bought him from a dealer. (this yard is a reputable yard though, not a dealers! they have a tack shop and everything lol)
