Cross Country Schooling

Cross country jumping was the highlight of the clinic for me and Cecil.  All that trailriding in his youth paid off - he's brave about everything!  As I rode this gymnastic David, the clinician, was heard to say to the other riders, "see that?  it takes GOOD riding to get that kind of footwork."  We were jumping a vertical, then 3 strides to up the bank, then 2 strides to another vertical.  Then we did the same thing in the other direction.




Cecil grew up to be a great eventing horse!
