The ponies were resting by the path alongside the Tweseldown Racecourse at 10:50 this morning. Pandora and the foal were lying down, but quickly got up when they spotted me. They were all very friendly, approaching one by one to say hello and enjoying plenty of strokes and rubs. All six looked happy, relaxed, and in excellent condition. The foal was especially affectionate today, rarely leaving my side and thoroughly enjoying endless neck, ear, and back rubs. He rewarded me with lovely cuddles, nuzzles, and licks.
I met Nicky at the site, and she applied antibiotic ointment to the bay coloured pony's right eye, which was slightly sticky again this morning. It's likely she caught her eye on a stray bit of gorse, but the treatment should help clear things up.
While Nicky and I chatted, the foal enjoyed being made a fuss of, and the other ponies relaxed close by. We said our goodbyes around noon.
The ponies were all good today.
