From Long-Reining to Backing: A Three-Year-Old Mare’s Progress

In this video, Brendan Gallagher shares an update on a three-year-old mare’s training progress. Now in week three, the focus has been on long-reining out in the fields to build balance, confidence, and responsiveness in straight lines and transitions. Back at the yard, Brendan begins the mare’s backing process, ensuring she’s comfortable and trusting with the introduction of a rider. This phase is crucial for her development, as she will take a year off afterward to grow and mature before resuming her training as a four-year-old.
