Either it’s the angle in the rising 6 middle pic or he was bum high and has now grown, though he looks more filled out there than he does now. Is it that or has he actually got less muscle!? I suppose he will have been doing more schooling in the middle photo than the recent one. I’d love to put a stick on him to see re height. Excuse the way he is stood on the recent photo, just manage to snap one before needing to move out of the way for some horses. I have a feeling he will look more different at rising 8! Decided not to scope re ulcers in the end as he just feels fantastic and spring is around the corner for some grass, I did swap the alphabeet for grass nuts but no different. He is fit as a racehorse and nearly jumped his rider out of the saddle schooling today (and did actually eject her into that brush where he misread the question first time!).
Any suggestions for specific pole work exercises to improve that weak back end? He’s hunted most of the winter and has done very, very little flat schooling but I’m getting more committed to it now and no more charging around the countryside, first event this weekend at Swalcliffe!
