Clear round jumping..... for invalids :)

[merlinsquest]

Merlin with the hoppy leg, decided that on the vets ok, he would like to go clear round jumping....

He isnt lame, before anyone says anything

He just has a bit of arthritis.... in one fetlock.... and its all ok now

First Zoe had a go

Then Lozz_x...

Then as they survived, I decided to have a go myself

We all got a nice rosette and merlin was a good boy... he sped up considerably by the time it was my go

But was still a hunny

Bless him..................next time go when I'm not working, so I can bring Sparks to the party!!!!

Loz's face

!

 

[Mudsplasher]

He's such a sweety and did so well this morning . Laura had a great time and her smile was nearly as wide as yours ! Thankyou for letting her jump him

 

[Gorgeous George]

yeah, looks like you had loads of fun, one day I will be brave enough to do that!

 

[merlinsquest]

I was a gibbering wreck....Mudsplasher will confirm that....

Firstly because Zoe (daughter) has never jumped more than one jump at a time on him..... never a course

Then coz Loz-x isnt mine and was grinning so much I thought she would faint!!!!

And then coz it was my turn

And they made me do the bigger ones (all of 2'3") at the most!!!

But we all survived

 

[Mudsplasher]

Just to confirm..... yes she was a gibbering wreck but then she gibbers alot anyway !!

And her grin was bigger than Lauras when she finished !

 

[merlinsquest]

How am I supposed to maintain my image of being cool, calm and collected now????

 

[Tia]

He looks like he is having fun - so do the riders!

 

[merlinsquest]

Yeah.... he had a lovely time.... got keener each round.. unlucky for me who rode last

Not bad for a horse destined for a tin two years ago!!!!

 

[Mudsplasher]

Cool calm and what ? ha ha ha ha ... That's funny

 

[merlinsquest]

Oh yeah.... forget the collected bit.... he doesnt do collected anything.

Except canter when everyone else is walking

 

[jellyshake]

pmsl sounds and looks like you all had fun and theres no sign of gibbering anywhere

 

[pixiebee]

he looks so much like my boy!!!!!!

 

[merlinsquest]

But yours is brown

Or do you mean in build.... if so what breeding is yours???

 

[Firewell]

ah he looks lovely, well done 2 u all!
