ash has started having lessons on her horse as although he is 8 he has the brain of a 4yr old ( and we have been told to treat him as one ), this i was told by the army who he was previously owned by, they dont bother to much with schooling! anyway his main problem is that the world around him is much more exciting then the xc course he is supposed to be jumping! he is more focused in the sj ring as he can see all the jumps etc i guess, but we were at ickworth yesterday and he came down to the water jump which was made up of 4 parts, he totally missed the first jump as all the spectators were more interesting and he didnt see the jump until he was practically on top of it at which point he shot out the side. any tips, exercises she can do to get him listening?
cheers
