Hi
I am currently look for a horse with the capability to bring on to BE and BS at about 1m 10. I tried a 6 year old TB who hasn't done much so is unschooled and green. Would you expect a horse that hasnt jumped for about 18 months and is a blank canvas to be able to clear a crosspole and a small jump about 2'6 cleanly if it was going to have potential to jump well. He had a lovely big walk and canter but when jumped he knocked it down (wasnt just a tap - he took it out with front legs) 6 times out of 7. I could do with some advise on this as never looked for a young horse before - just acquired my previous one and didn't have much choice
Thanks
Emma
