Very proud today!

My ex racer that we are currently reschooling has been such a good boy today! We've popped over some trotting poles and a small (tiny) jump but I'm soooooo proud of him! Only for 10 minutes or so, very steadily does it but we've both enjoyed it and have finished on an excellent note! I love him, he is amazing! Bursting with pride. X x

i know how you feel, it's great when you make progress! but i must warn you not to get your hopes up too much, i've just started jumping my ex racer and the first day he was perfect but next day was quite testing. i felt a bit disappointed after having been so happy the day before, i felt like nothing could go wrong. well done though, and stay positive. baby steps, and always end on a good note!

Well done you!
Small steps lead on to bigger things!
It is so refreshing to read about someone who recognises each small progress, instead of the ones who just want to jump five foot without putting in the work.
Good luck with your horse.

Thank you! I honestly don't care how big it is as long as he goes over and is happy doing it, tbh doing trotting poles well is enough for me at the moment. And I'm also totally prepared for him being different again another day, had lots of ups and downs already which is why I appreciate today so much more. Got lots of videos of us to look back on on a bad day, just to remind me we can do it! Good luck with your ex racer and thank you for advice. I'm on such a high, what a clever boy. X x
