She was such a star - I never in a million years thought we would jump them :D
I was determined to stick to 2'6! :eek::rolleyes::D

Hehehe it was amazingly good fun! As we rode down there, I was having a classic cant -shant-wont moment, but my friend was having none of it, and when her little mare took off, Ellie followed! I just had to sit tight, but then I loved it so much I went back and had another go on my own :eek::D

Monkeybum13 - yep, twas Rabson! I've just put the rest of the pics in PG - my wonderful brother took hundreds! How big do you reckon they are? I forgot to measure them afterwards! All I know is they have blown my 'I'm never jumping bigger than 2'6 XC' completely out of the water :eek::rolleyes::D
 
Amazing photos!!

you look fab, and you are seriously brave jumping them, they are HUGE!

I rode past them last time I was there and I was like EEK! lol
 
penhwnllys_stardust - the tail up in the air is Ellie's favourite trademark :D

Damnation - oh yes, gotta have the sheepskin! I'm thinking of trying to get a little patch of it to stick onto my grackle :o:D

Flicker - on any other horse I'd not have given it a thought - I would never have attempted them! But Elz is so forward going and keen, I just had to give it a go. She made it feel like nothing! :eek:

cheiro - lol, they are pretty massive, especially width wise! But the striding at Rabson is perfect, and that makes such a difference! I really do love it there :)
