I feel like there are so many mares this year! 🤩Or maybe the mares are just really standing out.
Karma is a great example!
I have a gelding currently, but now I’m thinking I may need a mare as my next.
Do you ride a gelding or mare?

I'm also cheering on Allison Springer! 💥She's one of our fantastic NF+ instructors featured in our Guided Rides. If you haven't heard about them, our Guided Rides are audio lessons you can listen to while you ride!
