Blue bog pony does JAS

[KatB]

He looks fab hon, really game and as you say forward. I wouldnt worry re. the arrowheads, once he gets them he will never have a problem again I reckon

Hope the knee feels better soon...

Thanks guys

He's easily confused - not many brain cells in his big head!!!!!! Luckily once he gets something it sticks though so sure we'll be fine long term.

Knee is a lovely colour this morning

MH - ouch!!!!! HOw on earth did you manage that?!?!?!?

Well done for doing it with a knee that sore! He looks lovely, a little sticky in places, but if he hasn't seen anything like it, it was fab! I would have been very happy with that and like you say, very educational for him, thanks for sharing and hope the knee is on the mend soon!

I do like Blue Bog Pony: as well as being as willing and honest as he shows in your vid (must have been thinking, "what a strange setup is this??!"), he's really, really pretty to look at. I like the cone+poles idea suggested earlier for the arrowhead problem; sounds like a cheap yet practical solution.

 

[AutumnRose]

Thanks sw

spookypony - he is a bit gorgeous but obviously i'm biased

. It comes i useful for him when he's naughty though, gets away with murder

Well done Laura

sounds like you guys did super. Don't worry about arrowhead things - they are silly! I can't see the video at work

How is your knee? Ouch, sounds painful. Hope you are well on the way to recovery. What's your first event of the season? Hope to see you about

It's a lovely colour this morning and very painful still

. Dodging and hopping over puddles and rivers in very unsensible work shoes really hasn't helped today.

I'm starting at Tweseldown, then Munstead - will i see you at either of those two? Hope your boy is ready to get started?!

Oh no, your poor knee.

Hope it feels better soon. Only one blip doesn't sound horrendous on a green young horse, I'll bet there were older/more experienced horses having as much, if not more, trouble also. It is a lot of fences in a small space for them to take in.

Roll on "proper" BE, you've not long to wait at least!

 

[Firewell]

You both look fab!! After reading the lucinda green article about really sitting up into the fences I noticed how much you sit up in your vid

Bet your really excited about the coming season, you should do really well

Im not really sure, I think I must have been asleep still!

 

[AutumnRose]

Thanks Figjam - not long to go now!!!

Firewell - funnily enough was reading that article the night before JAS!!!!!! I did sit up BUT was also not soft enough through my arms which is not helpful for him at all on way into fences!!! Work in progress me thinks

 

[Firewell]

Ah well, looked good to me. I was dead impressed lol!
