Phoebe walked down the stable aisle until she found one that had a stunning, yong thoroughbred in it.''Hello there Ember.''She said cheerfully. A happy neigh came from inside the box stall. Ember poke her head out and nuzzled Phoebe.''Ready for a nice workout?''She got her hooked up in the crossties and brushed her over with a stiff brush. Then, she grabbed her saddle and bridle from the tack room. She lifted the saddle and blanket onto her dark bay back. Ember side stepped.''Easy, babe.''Said Phoebe calmly. The outgoing mare soon felf her serenity and settled down as well.''Good girlie.''
Once Ember was tacked up Phoebe lead her out next large practice track. She mounted up and walked onto the dirt track that was sloppy from the rain. They walked for wahile, then trot, then canter. Now, they were ready for some real traininig.''Alright, babe!''Said Phoebe happily as she let Ember free. She was amazed at how much she wanted to run.''You've got some real potential, Ember.''
When she felt that Ember was going a bit to fast Phoebe reined her back a tiny bit. This wasn't easy. When they finally got into a nice pace she praised her.''Perfect.''She gave her a pat as they slowed back to a walk.''You're just a little fire ball, huh?''They did one more gallope before heading back to the barn and untacking.
''Looks like you need a nice washing.''Phoebe walked Ember over to the wash stall. She grabbed the hose and turned it on. First, she did it on her legs, so it wouldn't scare her as much. At first it was a little strange her her, but she got used to it after while. After getting all of the mud off of Ember's coat Phoebe Ember off with a sweat scraper and walked her back to her stall.
