Hello - I'm new (ish)

[SouthWestWhippet]

absolutely no idea.

I really liked the Stockland Lovel course... I started off really cautious as I feared Polly (my horse) would be crazy, it was our first time XC... but by the end I was jumping most anything on her.

I guess really it just has to be somewhere fairly nearby and with a nice steady course... TBH on Polly I would rather jump height over technicallity because she is more experienced than me, if you know what I mean. I won a day ticket in a competition last summer so I'm going to go on that to see if I like it. Any suggestions?

Stockland Lovall PN rode beautifully, and the Intro looked quite nice. There was one or two questions in the PN, (sharks teeth down a bank to a step up with a two stride distance to a solid arrow head being one) and a few skinnies, but I think the Intro wasnt bad, and the fences are beautifully built!

Cheltenham was the easiest course ever walked, but the ground was appalling! I withdrew after the dressage. Bicton is a lovely one if you can go a bit further, lovely atmosphere....

Other than that, not sure, didnt walk many Intro's unfortunately....

Welcome to the forum, hope your back is not too sore. Sounds like quite a painful injury. 15.2 is not small at all!, my share horse is 15h

Hello and welcome

I'm a fellow Somerset lass (for now anyway) Also event the troublesome 2 that are in my sig- the grey is 15.2ish and the bay is barely 15.1- I'm all for small horses (and its less far to fall

)

[SouthWestWhippet]

I'm about to get a second whippet... my mum breeds them and has a litter ready to go in about 5 weeks. I'm having a brindle and white girl puppy. Still not got a name yet but I come up with about 40new ones every day

Weimaraners are gorgeous but GO ON you know you want another Whippet LOL. Whippets are the best.

 

[SouthWestWhippet]

Your horses are gorgeous. Its nice to see some 'smaller' horses jumping the big fences... there is hope for me and my little mare yet!

I was always a fan of the big boys then somehow I ended up with a little mare and it turned out to be the best decision I made. i love the little ones now!

I like the little ones too!

My boy is 15hh, any bigger and he wouldnt fit in my lorry!!!!!
