Well took DA to a local riding school for their unaff jumping last night, decided to play it by ear & see how he coped. So arrived and he was quite nervy as you would expect as there was a lot going on & lots of noisy kids. So warmed up & after about 30 mins he had settled down really well so put a pole on the ground between the wings & he literally cleared it by 4 feet!

So after working over the pole we worked up to jumping the same height as the NovNov (5th hole in the wing I'll have you know!

So decided to take him into the ring & see what he thought. He was a total star we had one refusal as someone dropped something in the gallery & he shot sideways. I can't tell you how thrilled I am with him, he gave every jump about 3 feet clearence!

And a huge well done to my Mum who jumped Gus round the NovNov as she was told 3 years ago that she might not ride again after a really nasty fall
