I thought it was about time Remy saw some jumps so we put out some trotting poles for him to go over and then added a little X pole at the end. We have some coloured poles that we've never used so he needed a quick look before deciding they were ok. He didn't know what to make of the little x pole the first time and stopped, huffed and then walked over it, the second time he hopped over it and the third time he jumped it , but not particularly athletically. I brought him round again and he made quite a nice jump so we left it at that. This was just on the left rein, so next time we need to show him he can do it on both reins (hopefully).
A short bridle session with Bonbon asking for relaxation of the jaw and baby flexion. It's coming along well.

well done!
Thanks Claire, just want to add that it was on the lunge not ridden so can't take credit for actually jumping myself - LOL - perhaps one day if I'm feeling particularly energetic!
