Took the pocket rocket cross schooling today at somerford park on the arena xc first time jumping since he was loon at the beginning of November well safe to say he's back to normal looks like it was the feed. Was on springs, smallest horse in there but the only one to jump the drop fence first time. Unfortunately OH only got a few photos but never mind.

The moment your horse disappears underneath you! His backend though!

Hope everyone else has had a good new years eve so far!
 
Jumping is his thing, he has never stopped even as a baby, he's only 7 now. I'm really not brave at all! But I knew I'd kick myself if I didn't have a go and I know he's capable. He's tiny but has a big heart he will literally jump anything I point him at off any stride as long as he can get over it he will. I think he's trying to tell he'd like to do some eventing next year haha!
@chunky monkey it was pretty big!!! I thought I was coming off!
