A little bit of me deciding not to take it so seriously, confirmation that she shuts down with too much physical pressure but loves verbal encouragement, maybe Midge realizing her rider actually makes fairly reasonable demands (ie I'm much easier to please than the "mean" dressage lady! ;), and finally I think in a weird sort of way that horrible experience together made us a stronger team. With everyone pressuring me to find a different prospect, it only made me realize I'm 100% committed to keeping her and riding/training her long term and I'm sure she must feel that. Whatever the case, she's way more willing and agreeable of late!
