	What are your favorite exercises or things to do to keep your finished horse in shape and legged up? We do a lot of long trotting in the fields but I'm looking for ways to switch it up. Thanks!

Veteran Posts: 120	I use mine as a turn back horse for some cutting horse trainers near me and that really keeps them in shape! I've also started hauling to some nearby trails with lots of hills to do some hill work which is so good for them! Just try to do as much cross-training as you can to get them as fit as possible.
