My heart and soul still rested where the place I had come from. The dreams that had became true on that farm. Why was I here instead of there. The thoughts flooding my head. I was brought out of my thoughts by the chestnut thoroughbred that I was leading. Looking up at the colt I smiled. The thoroughbred was named Manny, but his registered name hadnt came yet. How do you like the name Man Oh Man I said looknig at the colt. He shook his head. Ok then, How bout Mr.Trouble I said. The colt just looked at me through his brown eyes. Mr.Trouble it is then I said. Stopping I lifted myself into the saddle. The colt was fresh to the track but today wasnt a track day but the old dirt road seemed like a good start.
Warming up slowly I let the colt stretch out some. The dirt road was about a mile to two miles long. Going to the end of one side of the road I turned the colt. His ears pricked forward as I turned him. ready? I said before letting the colt slip into a steady gallop. Going down the road quickly the first little bit past us. I lowered in the saddle and became one with the horse. Go boy I said letting him have the bit. We flew down the road. Letting him get a good stretch out I rose in the saddle pulling back slowly. Letting the colt understand the commands. We were slowed to a walk by the time we were near the end of the road. Turning him back I let him walk cooling him off.
