Union Station

 This is Leon this past summer.
Union Station, or Leon, as we call him, was my latest horse. I say was because I don't have him anymore because he is more hard to handle than Sammie and I stress fractured my back riding him, then soccer made it worse. He is still at my barn because a lady at my barn got him for pleasure riding. I still ride him but I can't jump him because he gets excited and pulls on me and it hurts my back. Leon is also a Thoroughbred and an ex-racehorse like Sammie. He is 16.1 hands and is also bay, but a lighter bay than Sammie. I never got to show Leon because last December right after I got him he got kicked by another horse and fractured his leg. I was supposed to show him at 3 foot, but now he can only jump 2 foot and gets really excited and starts running fast which could hurt his leg again. After my back got better, which was like 2 weeks ago, I rode him and just haven't been jumping. Last night, though I rode Sammie and jumped for the first time since August which was awesome.
