We had clear round at the yard today so I thought I would let ginger have a little play.
At £5 a round I allowed by myself three rounds and I knew in my head what height I wanted to go for.
So first round 85cm - Took a bad line and missed a dog leg but didn't touch a pole.
Second round 95cm - Same bad line opps and had 1 pole
Third round 95 with three up at 1m - awesome pony got the line but had 1 pole down
I couldn't stop smiling he is such a dude, He got very excited in the middle round and I had to take a circle to re-group before we went for the spread. It was a very tight course.
He is such a good boy but we are at the point where I need to teach him flying changes. Today he landed on the wrong lead but the course was so tight there was no time to change the lead so he took it at counter canter it was not a nice jump but honest as it was not a small jump.
I have so much love for this boy even though he was a monster to bring in one night this week.
