" Lets start by warming her up." Faith stood by the outside rail watching as Shane struggled to control the high-spirited horse. "Easy Cat!" He spoke calmly. The mare was side-stepping, half-rearing, and trying to bolt. Her ears flicked back and forth. "Easy." Cat's black coat shone, and her mouth foamed from pulling at the bit. "Gallop her to the pole, then back so I can see how she moves." Faith watched as they cantered away. When they returned, the young mare had settled down a bit, but she was ready to go. "Alright, breeze her." When they were finished, the mare was breathing hard, but she was still able to keep running. " She's very fit. Perhaps she will be ready for her race next week." Cat nodded her head as if in agreement.
