Thankyou for the inspiration .I live in England Dorset.Listening to Montys voice is in itself “therapy” its so soothing no wonder everyone wants to hug him and if I was a horse id be following him around all day! I think with jumping there are horses for courses and just like us they prefer one sport to another .Theyll do it try but its not their thing,Beyond the obvious physical limitations , and experience, coupled with what Monty said.Also there are occassions Ive watched showjumpers at county shows looking like zombies their eyes portray it all .Jaded and in need of a change, for a while at least.Incorporating an element of fun and reward even jumping alongside another horse or with the rider on foot over small poles maybe just letting the horse jump freely no pressure -leading over ditches and logs on different terrains . I think watching Lastic and Nick Skelton jump the record GB jump is well worth a look .Kind Regards Best Wishes Jane[ Fielder]
Thank you Jane for the nice response to the episode with Monty. He appreciates it!
