Everything going really well with Cyrus, didn't get in as much riding as would have liked last couple weeks but today did a jumping session and a couple friends were helping, encouraging me and setting up jumps.
He did fantastic, we even jumped an 80cm skinny, a month ago had real aversion to them and he'd almost always try to run out at skinnies. Did this one three times an no run outs whatsever, he felt like he totally was with me and wanted to jump it :bounce:
My friend, who doesn't have horse of her own, hopped up on him too and he jumped lovely for her. Hopefully doing competition in couple weeks and as she is more experienced than me have asked her (and she is happy to) jump him in the midis (70-80cm approx) and I will jump him in minis (60-70s).
To finish off session took him to the indoor and my other friend's daughter who is a lovely little rider had a little walk and some lovely trots on him. She is 7 but very good confident rider and my boy totally looked after her too, he really is one special horse and a complete sweetheart :wub:
