just a quick question, i have just started popping over tiny, pathetic x poles, and am managing those alright, but what about contact?? i don't want to put her of by jagging her mouth, but i used to have a bad habit of leaning forwards and throwing the contact away causing her to run out or stop, currentley i am just trotting over the x poles, giving my hands forward over the "jump" and keeping my position fairly upright, but should i be keeping a feel on her mouth the whole way over the jump if that makes sense?? she is the sort of mare that always needs a little re-assurance.
