Can anyone give me some advice please, I ride a very talented mare who loves to jump. She does lack some confidence but her eagerness makes up for it :0)
She always gives the jumps plenty of room however she does not evenly tuck both knees up together over the fence, the left fetlock is always lower and she's quite stiff in the air, she doesn't naturally bascule over the fences. So apart from lots of big crosspoles in a grid to help her stay central and lift in front what do you suggest I do to help correct her and generally help her improve. She is able to stretch over the fence as I give her plenty of rein to do so :0)
