Well, thanks to some button pusher last week, I got banned for my photo (which I did actually buy) for a week! :mad:

Anyway, the sun has come to play, a bit too much! Its now too hot to ride, coblet's still got half his winter coat on which now means i have huge white blobs of 'snow' dotted around the field :rolleyes: He's got his mane plaited up because its like a furnace under it all and hes got to put up with his fly rug at night in fear of being eaten to death by midgees.

This weeks show jumping was great, once again he loaded streight in, travelled well andstood like a lamb while i went to book in. We're only doing the 2'9 class at the moment, because he tanks through anything smaller :rolleyes: :D We went in the indoor clear round to warm up, and the lay who runs the indoor has some wierd obsession with gypsy, she goes around telling everyone to come and watch how high he can jump and how cute he is! So we just put the jumps up to abouut 2'3 ish to start with, went clear and got a really cute fluffy horse head thing on a sticker. Oh, and coblets gets special treatment and got a polo ;) We then asked said lady to put them up to the class height, 2'9. If they were 2'9 i will eat that flylly sticker thing, they were over 3ft anyway! I didnt mind, coblet liked it and yes, went clear :D Lady was jumping all over the place, very happy and jolly that a 13.3 cob can really jump :rolleyes:

Roll on 10 minutes and it was our class time, by god he flew :D He ran out at number 3, but most odf the horses were that night :confused: so it wasnt that bad, but the rest of the round he went clear and left every pole up :)

Looking back at the photos, Im not surprised he left every jump up, he cleared them by a foot, on every photo :o

Excuse my position on some, he was litrially flying over them from miles away and i got a bit left behind on some :rolleyes:

He's and awesome pony :cool:

Here's a quick video of a few clips and pictures, 'cause hes special :D:D

As for the button-pusher, some people just don't grow up. Tantrum-tastic ;)
