Destiny ignored Marie.

Obviously she HAD named the horse if she had called it Renaldo. Besides, nothing was wrong with that name. It was a very noble name for a very noble..wooden horse. Instead of answering her friend, she kept her eyes on the race track, and only when Professor Carlton came hovering on an umbrella did she move her gaze. Hehe, an umbrella would probably be more fun to ride, but you can not name an umbrella Renaldo.

Listening to the directions, Destiny occasionally nodded her head when she felt like she should.

And then they could start!

Pulling out her wand, she gave a swish and flick, "Wingardium Leviosa." she said, watching as the horse started to rise. When the end of the stick was at eye level, she gave a small tap with her wand. "Fixate!" Using the reins, she pulled herself onto the horse. Meh, there should be a seat-belt or something..perhaps instead of a cowboy hat, she should have gotten a helmet. Knee pads, too. "Locomotor horse..thing." Hopefully that worked..

..and it did!

"Ride like the wind..Renaldo."
