Maybe those are the smart ones!

I was blessed with a calm 3 yr old paint mare that was ground broke but had never been ridden. The first time I got on her I was expecting a blow up but it never happened. I’ve been training her since last summer and I have yet to fall off (knock on wood). I think the main reason why she hasn’t bucked is because she’s lazy and doesn’t want to make the effort to expend any extra energy. I’m thankful for my lazy horse because my old bones couldn’t take the fall!
