He's not too small for her is he? *pic*

[smirnoff_ice]

Would only be for the odd 3DE, mostly ODE's, fun rides (max 70miles!), hunting, hacks, and some Grade A showjumping.

She's not over-horsed is she?

 

[horsegirl]

I think the SJ a bit ambitious but otherwise should be fine!

 

[irishdraught]

Nah - she'll be fine, just make sure that she uses REALLY short stirrups otherwise she might catch the fences!!

 

[pinkcatkin]

You'll probably find that when he is at an event he will "grow" slightly with the adrenalin, so they should be absolutely fine.

 

[loopyloop]

I think they'll make a cracking pair.....!!

Or go under them

 

[lucylemon]

she is too overhorsed! you should get a smaller one

 

[kerilli]

hmm, what's the weight of the horse? and of the rider? i realise that an experienced rider will of course ride "lighter" than a beginner, but i still have slight reservations.

one good thing of course is that she will not need to use reins, and will be able to hold the bit rings with her fingers - which is of course absolutely ideal, avoiding any interference between the rider's hands and the horse's mouth.

 

[amandathepanda]

Kerilli, I have to disagree with your comments about holding the bit rings with her fingers, surely she will want to hold on the ears and ride around jumping courses as if she is on a motorbike?! I think they stand an excellent chance of winning high level SJ & 3DE as obviously they will be developing their limboing (sp) skills

 

[joey1999]

That one looks a bit fiery - I think hard hat and body protector should be worn at all times!!!

 

[eahotson]

He is far too big. She needs something much smaller

 

[Mrs_Wishkabibble]

If I'm honest then think you may struggle in a Puissance but anything else should be fine.
Too many people nowadays over-horsing themselves!

 

[Gorgeous George]

I can't she is on a horse like that without a hat on!!! Really she look for a smaller horse!!

 

[happyhack]

I think he's a bit too big for her.....

ME two. Doesnt look very safe for the rider

 

[MadMacher]

I thought standing in horse pooh made you grow!!!

 

[smirnoff_ice]

PMSL!!!

Thanks guys! Just what we thought!!

Burghley here we come! Might even do Hickstead AND the Grand National!!!

 

[Merlotmonster]

Think the Grand National might be taking it a bit far...after all, you want to give the others a fair chance....

 

[smirnoff_ice]

Too true!! Wouldn’t want to embarrass all of the expensive TB's! This ponio came from Beeston after all - the TB's might become suicidal if they got their asses kicked by a 'commoner'!!

 

[merlinsquest]

Cant see a horse, but me thinks that she needs her bikini line done..................badly!!

 

[smirnoff_ice]

Haha!! LOL!

I'll tell her to get waxing!!!

 

[spider]

Oh for goodness sake. These natives can carry full grown men all day long. people these days just want to wrap horses in cotton wool.
