At one of dd's riding lessons she often rides a particular pony who is known for being quite tricky
Dd is the most advanced rider in the group so when this particular pony is in the lesson dd almost always has her.
Dd loves riding her as she's very forward-going and apparently she's good to get in an outline but at the start of the lesson she often bucks a lot - think rodeo-style bucks ... dd's usually glued to the saddle but last week it was the first evening lesson in the outside school and the pony was wildly overexcited. She did a series of enormous bucks and dd came off. She got straight back on again and the pony was apparently well-behaved for the rest of the lesson but dd had jarred her back quite badly and ended up missing two days of school.
WIBU to ask the instructor not to put dd on this particular pony for a while or is it all just part and parcel of learning how to ride?
