Because, the horse that doesn't jump, tonight jumped 1m :D

Not sure if any of you remember but Henry is not easy to jump, he's scared of poles on the ground, have had everything physical checked, other people have tried and before I'd ever jumped him he did the same to a far more experienced RI. He can throw a paddy over walking over a pole on the ground but he learns by repetition and once he realises it's safe he LOVES it.

Had a grid work lesson with my RI this evening and after throwing a wobbler over a less than 2ft X pole at the start of the grid he was AMAZING, RI has said at the moment she doesn't care how fast we come in as long as he doesn't refuse so we picked up a hell of a lot of speed :D.

BUT we ended up with the last part of a treble being 1m high.

I'm on cloud nine! :angel::angel:I haven't jumped that high for a couple of years and I was almost resigned to the fact we'd never get over more than 2ft.

I am the happiest girl in the world this evening :D
