Where are all the SJers??!!

[lucemoose]

As much as I love reading any reports about everyones' competition outings, I have to ask where are the SJers?! I want to read jumping reports dammit! Its like a BSJA drought in here (sorry LadyTara..I read yours!)
My beastie is broken I need to live through someone else...

Hi my name is Tillie,
I agree! i love listening to how people have got on at there shows they have been to! i haven't been to any junior bsja's recently as im waiting for a saddle to arrive! Tell me about you and your horse/horses? What do you do? This is what im on here for .. to hear about others and their horses!! I don't have many questions! I just really want to know about other people and there horses!! x

 

[BuckingHorse]

Me and OH are going to Royal Leisure tomorrow. Will post as long as it is not too horrendous!

 

[ann-jen]

I'm afraid Jenny is getting over a lameness so we're not going anywhere at the moment. However she's looking pretty sound now and so once her shoe is slapped back on we'll be back in action (hopefully beginning of the week). I'm hoping we'll both be ready for Holmside Hall in 3 weeks time.

Hi Tillie, my horse is broken but he was meant to be starting jumping newcomers this indoor season.
What classes are you doing with your pony? Any Pics?

 

[lucemoose]

Ta! Love RL, their jumps make everyother venue look small!

 

[lucemoose]

Wohoo, hooves crossed for a sound, bouncy pony!

 

[lucemoose]

Fank you! I do like your reports, and the mare!

 

[StaceyTanglewood]

my little cusin hows 10 went to norten heath today she won the dic and was also 6th and had a pole on her knew pony wich she needs to get to know we are going to towerland next week

 

[dieseldog]

I can report that I went over a pole on the ground yesterday. This is a lot more exciting than it sounds as you have to leap at least 4 times in front of the pole, clear the pole by 3 ft, and then tank very fast across the arena and refuse to stop. All accompanied by Thomas the Tank Engine noises.

You got one too? Never get bored. Never give in.

To be fair it was the first pole she's seen in 9 months.

mine is 12 had from 4yr old and does that everytime he sees a pole at home!

 

[Rambo]

I'm here !!!

No shows for us this weekend though...we're 'saving' ourselves for the Blue chip qualifiers next weekend at Golden Cross (well, Trike is...Bo isn't eligible for any more unless we want to travel miles and jump stoopid heights

).

After that we're off skiing though so a pretty quiet february for us really...but then build up through March towards Towerlands Internations in April and then the outdoor season again

I have a very mature 13. She is a complete nightmare anywhere near a fence, especially at home or in the collecting ring - she can't stop leaping. But as soon as she gets in the ring a little switch flips in her head and she becomes a total pro. I was terrified the first time I went to a show on her, I survived the warm up, went in the ring and was very surprised I had to kick.

Prize givings though are a bit scary because as soon as she hears the music she is straight into canter, (as it is lap of honour time) and when I stop her she starts violently pawing the ground and rears

She sounds lovely doesn't she

actually yes!

she sounds like my boy! although he will stand still in the line up - until that scary arse bit of ribbon comes towards him!

 

[dieseldog]

She does stand in the line up - especially if they hand out Polos, doesn't mind ribbons, it is just that as soon as she hears the first beat of the music she is straight into canter. She knows that that is what you are supposed to do, and I am so wrong to make her wait. As long as they start the music after the rosettes have been handed out I'm fine. I ended up doing canter pirourettes to Star Wars once.

They never grow up do they?

 

[Vicki_Krystal]

no they really dont!

my 5 and 6yr olds are saner than he is!

 

[MagicMelon]

Well I did BSJA last weekend - won the 1.10m open and got 5th in the Fox. Nothing on this weekend, everything got cancelled due to the weather which sucks! I dont know what to do with myself today Got BSJA next Sunday. Maybe Ill do a report on it

Hope everybody has a good day if you're lucky enough to be competing today!

:stickshandup: Here's one!
(well truthfully I'm an eventer really but its winter so I convert for a while, its either that or dressage. Nuff said).
I don't put reports in here, I'm a bit shy! But took my little one out for her first BSJA couple of weeks ago and she was a superstar so I was happy.

 

[wonkey_donkey]

Hi, We do BSJA but don't usually post a lot because thought it may be boring for the readers!
But if you insist I'm happy to as always proud of my naglets however they perform !!
Have posted our Arena Uk qualifier report from yesterday to kick it off
