Story:

The night was full of anything but sleep. Since they arrived back late that night. Amber was busy getting Glory settled in, and all his stuff put away and organized. Not to mention his neediness for his breakfast, and all the attention in the world.
With a slouch, Amber drags her feet over to his stall. Still half asleep, she calls his name and peeks into his stall.
Letting out a sigh at the sight, she shakes her head. The stallion was spread out over his stall floor, dead asleep. Picking up his halter and lead, she shakes it making sure it makes some kind of noise. The stallion makes no effort to move. Another horse down the aisle lets out a whinny.
"At Least somebody gets it," she says under her breath.

Not to many others are up at this time, so the barns was relatively quiet. Amber didn't have to be up this early either, but since it was a new place, she had the idea to ride him around the grounds to get him used to the new setting.

"Glooorry!" She sings out, "my Gloorry!" He flicks an ear towards her,

With another sigh, she reaches into her pocket and pulls out a carrot.
Taking a bite out of it, making sure it has the snapping sound.

Faster then normal, the lazy horse that was once sound asleep was now up and sniffing through the bars.

"Only you, Glory, only you" she says breaking into a smile, giving him the carrot through the bars.

The warm up ring wasn't as busy as other shows, but that was an okay thing. More room to work with.

The earlier ride was pointless as the stallion didn't look twice at anything. Almost like he was sleep walking.

But now Amber could feel the excitement in him. For being so big and powerful, he was responding easily with everything she asked.

Going over the warm up fence a few times, she felt he was ready for anything.

"Lets do this"
