So is your horse really tolerant? If it is, that would make it easier. How does he/she react to those little white fences?
Do you only jump or are you interested in eventing? I tried dressage, but my mare kept gaping- she didn't like the constant pressure.
Thanks for commenting on my blog (Cruz')!

Well, if I'm correct, this looks like a cross country jump. To me, it looks like the horse had to jump over one jump to fall into a ditch filled with water (judged by the splashes) and jump over a log on the ground above. (such as it needed to jump out of the ditch so techincally it had to jump up and foward.) So unless you want to dig a ditch in your backyard, fill it with water, and put a log with flowers at each end, I'm not really sure how you can make it otherwise.

wow you know so much just about the splashes....how dis u learn so much?

well, I can also tell from the splashes that it is a narrow ditch filled with water, maybe 3 feet deep, with a lrage log at either end. If in were you, I would start with a dry ditch, then move onto a water filled one.

Hi! Iv'e got an unrelated question. Is the book Wilderness Champion written by Joseph Wharton Lippincott? Some of his books are my favorites, including this one. By the way, a must to any horse-lover is the Black Stallion series by Walter Farley. The three movies made from them are great too!
