Training Milestone: First Independent Ride on a Three-Year-Old Horse

After weeks of groundwork and preparation, this three-year-old has made significant progress. Yesterday marked her first time being ridden away, and today Brendan Gallagher is building on that success. 

Watch as he carefully guides her through her first ride without lunging or long-reining beforehand. From adjusting to the mounting block to walking and trotting under saddle, this video offers insight into the patience and care required to develop a confident, relaxed young horse. Throughout the session, Brendan focuses on maintaining her calm demeanor, encouraging forward movement, and building trust. You'll see how he handles challenges, celebrates small victories, and prepares her for a well-deserved break until she returns as a stronger four-year-old next year.
