Story:
"So... You could speak with Ray after all. Could he give you any new advice on how to do dressage better?"

"Good. Thanks for pointing it out. Now, let's see if I can remember all of these. But if I don't, Smokes will." the man added, jumped up to the saddle and led the stallion towards the starting point...
