Do you think this is too much?

[Madam_max]

Basically, I seem to all of a sudden have loads on that I want to do.

So this weekend

8 October-SJ outdoor.

Following weekend off (maybe a chance of BD, havn't decided).

21 October- CT- SJ/Dressage
22 October- SJ indoor (prob 3 classes)

28-Jumping Clinic
29 8 mile sponsored ride.

Do you think that this is going to be too much? Horse is fit, worked 6 days a week.

Sorry to ramble. Perhaps I will be more knackered

im sure she will be fine!!! Bloss competed every weekend for 3 months over the summer and sometimes in the week aswell and it hasnt done her any harm!

it will probably do her good

xx

 

[Madam_max]

Yes I know, it's just that it's both days for 2 weekends

 

[Tempi]

give her a day off in the field on monday - she'l be fine!! The sparsholt CT wont wear her out in anyway.....bloss couldve done the whole thing another 3 times over when i did it!

 

[Rambo]

If she's fit and you give her time off in the week then not a problem at all. Only comment I would make is that I never jump more than two classes at a show...

 

[Madam_max]

Ok, I can narrow that down and I guess the sponsored ride is only like a usual weekend hack for her.

 

[Rambo]

Yes....Bo did a x-country on saturday followed by a 13 mile sponsored ride on the sunday a few weeks back, and he was still pulling me along by the end of it

 

[Madam_max]

Yep, I know that feeling.

 

[Kelly1982]

I'm sure she will be fine, if my horse has a heavy few weeks then i usually give her a week to chill in the field or a few days off and then some gentle hacking afterwards.

 

[dieseldog]

Agree with Rambo - we never jump more than 2 classes.

 

[jess_asterix]

she'll be fine if shes fit, and just give her a days rest, but echo rambo, i never do more than 2 classes at a show, they can lose concerntration.
