Self indulgent - brilliant lesson last night

[Vix1978]

I know - a little self indulgent, but the big grey one was a superstar in our lesson yesterday. Working through grids of parellels to help him figure out how to jump them without launching into orbit each time.
Finished off with quite a meaty grid - the last fence at 115cm.
For a horse that is still relatively green with his jumping, I was so pleased with the way he is now starting to focus on his fences and is really starting to try for me.
Had the biggest grin on my fence afterwards as I can feel it is all starting to come together. Lets just hope we jump this well over the weekend at WL!

Excellent, I had a lesson last week for the first time in ages and it was like a revelation! My horse was fab and it gave me so much confidence, we went to a show the following day and jumped round the BN!

MKEC 2 is the next one entered. Then I think I'll give Ascott under Wychwood a try. Toying with doing the PN for the latter as the description states that it is good for first timers at that level.

thought I'd just take him in the 2'9" and 3' to work on our ring craft.
I don't know what Jess is doing though
