Not sure if anyone is actually interested but hey Its my day off and im bored
At start at 2013 me and jcberry (she doesnt come on hho anymore, but she still has pepsi if anyone remembers her!) hired the indoor arena at sol to do some jumping. I absolutely hate jumping and horse has a bit of an iffy left hock so only do it very very rarely if not at all. He was brilliant as always and hadnt jumped since aug/sep so really enjoyed it
Im obviously way out of practise with the whole jumping position
We then both again went to a paul friday clinic at moreton morrell. Neither of us had been before but it was something to do and we both really enjoyed it. Mostly worked on straightness, travers (sp?), and leg yield in and out of circle, absolutely dead by the end, havent worked that hard in a while!
Trying to create a bigger movement and stretching over back
Just have to post this pic as he looks so sexy
He has never ever looked so well in the nearly 5 years i've had him. This time last year he went awfully lame behind and didnt think id ever be able to ride him again. Vets actually put it down to saddle in the end as could not find anything else wrong with him, so had a beautiful new one fitted by the best saddle fitter ever and a few sessions of physio by the best physio ever and he now looks amazing (obviously a very slow process, didnt just throw saddle on a ride again!)
But this is what he looked like in march/april time last year, dont even want to show anyone he looked that awful
Thats all in the past now anyway
Last week he took the little kiddy that rides him to a sj rally at moreton again. Because the saddle is made for me her little legs only just come past the flap so he enjoys choosing too ignore her he just took the pi$$ the whole time and flirting with all the other horses. No pics of this one, busy eating sausage baguette
Had another physio session and she said he is much much improved and should be proud of ourselves He is coming on leaps and bounds at the moment and is such a pleasure to ride. Just did a little bit of tweaking with his left side of pelvis and right shoulder but other than that he was all good Unfortunately havent ridden since then because of the snow etc but took a few pics of him today messing about
Please excuse vet wrap on feet, keeps snow from balling up Hopefully it'll go asap as have my first area 5 comp on 3rd feb and need to practise and not get bronked off!
He is such a fantastic little warmblood ( )
Hope you didnt get too bored! and hope you all notice how much different he looks now, if not I may cry
