Maggie always wears breeches and a helmet...She is interested just runs
out of steam even though she doesn't seem to want to.

I've been wondering if i need to change her tack...she has an AP english
saddle that she uses for pony club, but we've been thinking maybe I need
to find her an endurance saddle for longer rides...but then again, she's
apparently comfy in the AP and so is the pony.

I think she's doing great! I'm only wanting to help her achieve the goals
she's set for herself.
