RIDER RESPONSIBILITIES

A poem by Amanda Holloway

On entering the stable or field

A simple “Hello” is best to yield

A return greeting you’ll be pleased to receive 

As you check overall is as should be perceived.

A plan for the day in which you’ll share

Your hopes and dreams as much as you dare

For a place on the podium is the best aim

And your Partner sharing in this plan for you to train.

How you both get there is to be defined

As hills and mountains to be climbed

For learning together is so much fun 

And a mighty achievement when this is done.

For a sound System must be in place

All Equestrians know this to be the case 

A Partnership must be the aim

Brilliant riding and training as ever the name of the game.
