The working horse

glenatronI'm sitting on Zorro near the end of the arena, waiting for a moment while another horse is passing behind us. My hands are resting on the saddle horn, he is standing foursquare and relaxed. The other horse gone I pick my hand up off the saddle horn and it feels as if Zorro wakes up, putting himself in balance up ready to move. As I turn my body he's already following that feel, bringing himself around and back in the direction I'm planning to go.
