Fab photos :D

Missed the end of last week, so glad you got to jump! :D
And it's a decent sized jump to me too, i wouldn't like to jump what the others were doing if they put that down for you?!

Hehe, thanks :D

How big is that cross pole?! :eek:

Take a look at the other pics in juniors, I thought they looked HUGE!

Anything B jumps looks bigger than it actually is, cos she always gets right in close to a jump then launches herself and her rider over! xx

They're all fab photos :)

I'm working on your certificate-I'm absuing my highlighter supplies at work but will have to scan at home because work doesn't have a colour scanner anywhere! :(

Looks like you had a ball :)

Why do the RS not give you a neck strap? All novices should ride with a neck strap, in fact everyone should ride with a neck strap. It would really help you when jumping :)

Is that you in pic 1 - if so it looks like your jumping has really improved - I would say you just really need to relax some more - jumps that height are not going to eat you I promise!

Well done you x

Do it, there is no shame in using a neckstrap, most sensible people do (if they haven't got a martingale). Pippa Funnell and William Fox-Pitt are both huge advocates of using one, so don't feel as tho only novices use them :)

And a quote from Laura Collett...

"She's different to my other horses, as I've produced the others from scratch," she said. "She's very nice in the dressage, but she's strong cross-country — I just aim at the fences and hold the neckstrap!"
