The afternoon was for the jumping lesson with Luukas. He explained me a few things, but the goal of today was to find more confidence. We worked mainly on the ground with poles and jumped tiny obstacles. Dev was prett agitated at first, so we had to calm him to get to work.

After a few exercices on the ground, Luukas gave me tips to help Dev focusing and me being in control. Dev is a young stallion, so I should adapt my riding to him.

After the work, we got back to the stable. I was preparing Dev for the pasture, so I could ask him a few questions.

"Are there other horses on the property ?"
"Other than Devil's name and Rosemonde ? Yes. A mare named Barbezyeux. She's in the big pasture, where Rosemonde is."
"She's your horse ?"
He smiled.
"No she's not mine. I ... currently have no horses that is mine. Barbezyeux is the mare of my niece."
I see. This family spread their stories all around here. I wouldn't be surprised if I learnt that Jacob was something like the uncle or the son of Lucas !

After I brushed Dev, Luukas broke the silent.
"If you want, we can take Dev to the big stallion pasture. It's next to Barbezyeux's; so you can see her."
"It would be a pleasure !"
