hi all. as i posted above i had a torrid time after ordering a charles Owen Ayr8 hat off them. Not order turning up despite taking my money, no contact off them and no contact details for me to get in touch with them but in the end i opened a dispute with paypal. After doing dome digging i found...

so i thought i would post an update. as i knew i had a dressage comp with him this weekend ive been working on that during the week rather than jumping but what i did do is have some poles out in the middle of the arena to mix in with my flatwork. i had them wide enough to use them as short...

does anyone have any reccomendations for one who might fit the bill in the staffordshire area? im near to Eland Lodge & FieldHouse if that helps??

he is tight/short in his neck - thats part the reason my head gets so close to his when folding! 12 months ago i was using a waterford but from lesson etc i started to use a full cheek snaffle and i used this for his xc schooling and indeed his 1st event at kelsall but felt i needed something...

thanks. my trainer has said that basically he doesnt think he will do what i want him to do. he doesnt think he helps me enough as hes all sort of let me at it coming to a fence & then once he gets there falls in a heap. My instructor is a pro event rider who rode at greenwich for example &...

maybe sluggish would describe it better? no so much hitting them - just no real effort being made. i did a x pole to strat winding it up to the top hole x. after that made it an upright with ground pole, then an ascending spread - nothing more than 85cms i guess.

so i tried loose jumping him for the first time on saturday - he took to it really well and surprised me tbh. i learnt a few things from it too: 1) he didnt speed up at all into the fence 2) he still preferrred to get in close 3) he still carries his head high but not nearly as high as when...

his flatwork is perfectly round but the more he jumps a fence the worse he gets - as soon as he turns his head is so high i can almost see his nose and how i havent hit heads yet when folding i dont know! ive not tried lunging him over jumps yet - im looking for a jump block to replace a...

what are peoples thoughts on using the market haborough for this? any experiences? also i know of people using a hollow metallic pole for sj so if a horse knocks it with a hoof it clangs, encouraging them to pick them up. asnyone heard of this?
