Scary!! On Tuesday night we had a disasterous attempt at loading practice, after him doing it great a couple of weeks ago. Last night I took all of the partitions out and he went in fine, then gradually put them back in, until he was standing calmly with them all in place. So hopefully I will get to my first indoor SJ training night tonight
Am rather nervous, as am not quite sure that we are good enough to be there, or to be on our riding club team....but we will see. We have problems on picking up a right canter lead, with general impulsion, and trying to acheve that illusive bouncy canter. Hopefully the other horses sharing the lesson wont set him bucking off as well. Abd we have no chance jumping any new jumps first time, without some snorting and spooking......oh dear, what have I let myself in for.......Have to rush home to get ready and start possibly long drawn out process of loading. I bet we get stuck there, and have to leave him in a hugely expensive stable!
