They are not great so don't get too excited, but they will give you the general idea

The 'boys' disappearing over number 4:

Cruising home to the last two:

Isn't he gorgeous

Fantastic photos and I agree, they both just looks SOOO laidback about it all, except HH looks a tiny bit
crazy.gif
to find he has landed in a large yellow puddle - JP just sitting back in his armchair waiting for HH to get with the plot

Shame the angle at No 4 means you can't quite see the pint of Guinness in JP's hand, but I swear I can see a whiff of smoke from a cigar - just don't know which of them it was smoking it

Seriously, great pics of a great horse - and a none-too-shabby jockey

Awww, bless him. I feel quite choked, but that could be the cashew I've just inhaled with my glass of wine.

Thanks for those ISZ, they're fab. I love the water ones: the first one looks like he's just clocked the monster skinny houses on the far side,
shocked.gif
and the second one looks like he's having a quiet word with the mermaid.
shocked.gif
The last one is the best though and - for the benefit of KatB - he doesn't look that big does he?
wink.gif


JP is sickeningly secure and balanced yet so soft in his position; how wobbly and rubbish am I gonna look when i get back on?
frown.gif
 
God he looks real fit now!
Snigger tho, he's treating it like Intro! will this horse ever find anything a challenge??

Loving a bit of JP too
wink.gif
*secret crush*
 
oh he is a sexy pone and agree, so chilled¬!

Baydale you do a sterling job - you wont even notice once you're fixed that u were ever broken!

He's gorgeous and makes it look effortless

I couldn't believe how short JP was riding at Weston last week. He looked like he was going racing!

I know. I ride on the third shortest hole but he had to put a twist in them and then had them on the top hole.

My thighs would go into spasm if I rode that short.

Right you lot. Where's your sense of taste and decency gone?? Please PUT JP DOWN! It's not big and it's not clever. Let's face it, the guy can ride and has a good line in that 'cheeky chappie' mick-taking banter thing, but EEEUUURRRGH
mad.gif

Baydale, if you ever fancy sticking your stirrups up a few holes there's a whole yard full of pointers here would love to meet you. I can guarantee that your thighs would be fine.... after about a fortnight
wink.gif


Lovely pics ISZ, though I think your camera's got that delay thing going on that mine does and makes it nigh-on impossible to take pics of horses jumping. HH is looking decidedly less humungous too, but no less gorgeous!
 
I ride short but that's because I've got short legs! JP had fantastic balance though unlike many we saw. How big is HH? I can't decide whether he's huge or JP is tiny!
 
Gamebird, no thanks to the pointers, I'll stick to swimming to get my thighs back in shape.

Lizzieb he's 17.3-ish but not at all wide, hence why me being 5ft 6in works (kinda
crazy.gif
) on him.
 
OMG he's huge
shocked.gif
I wouldn't even be able to lift his saddle on! My sister's horse is 16.3 and I struggle with him. The best thing I find though is that the jumps look a lot smaller off him than they do off my 15 hand mare which is good because I'm not very brave. Hope you're back on board soon.
 
Great pics, they look v at home together!!

JP also goes higher than the highest hole I use on my leathers when he goes cross country. After a year of working for him and being told (put them up 5 more holes) my thighs were thighs of steel, probably would do me (or at least my figure) good ot go back!!!
