Thanks. I attached rope to the cheek piece's for reins to start off but not that others have made me more aware of specialised bitless bridles, I think I will invest in a dr cook or else put the bit back onto his bridle. As far as the ground work is concerned, I think he is just having a joke...

thanks for all your replies! :) I have been doing some research and I am still not sure which bit-less bridle to use on my horse. I wasn't aware of how many specially designed bitless bridles there are! I have been using my horse's own bridle with the bit taken out but after your suggestions I...

Hi, I have recently just got my first horse, an 8YO 15.hh bay gelding. I have always liked the idea of riding bit-less as I feel it is more comfortable for the horse. I have had experience riding a horse bit-less before and that particular horse was absolutely super and responded really well...

I normally just splat them if I see one!

well ... thanks anyway :( thinking of pulling out of event in case I hurt his mouth. Still on for getting a horse 100%

Nice jokes guys... what's wrong with showing if I can ride? any more advice then? I know I can do it!

I'm definitely going to do this class, think I'll be able to figure it out once I've watched the others before me. I'll just throw the reins at him to get him to jump and lean forward and touch his ears when I go over the jump like we did in exercises in lessons. Thanks for all your help and...

I already have a lot of experience I think.

will the competition not be enough?

why?

I'm not really very sure. medium sized cross pole but it felt massive to me! How do I tell him that it's okay and that I want him to jump it. The last time I jumped, the pony just sped into it and took off itself but my friends horse is slow and I'm worried he wont jump when I ask him to.

I have a rocking horse ... and we have already found the right horse for us, I just need some more experience first :)

Thanks but I have been talking to my friend (the one that owns the horse) and she says if I'm nervous I should do the 70's, which I think I will. It will be really good experience for me and I will be taking lots more lessons before We actually buy the new horse. would really appreciate some...

I'm not joking! Please help! I know how to ride a horse etc, just need advice on more serious jumping. What are your experiences of first shows? I have ridden her horse before in a field and he is very slow. Since I haven't jumped that high before, I'm scared he might refuse and I might fall...

lol, she's already entered me. He is very big and 90cm is small to him. Had some lessons and jumped a cross too. Can you just give me some tips??? what is a troll?
