There is no point in teaching your horse to take off on a perfect stride every time. While it is never a bad thing to be able to see a stride, there will always be times when we approach a fence on the “wrong” stride, or perhaps not be able to find one at all.

If you have only trained your horse to jump out of a perfect stride, he will not know how to safely navigate the fence in these situations, and you may well end up in trouble.

Instead, we must let the horse learn how to think for himself, and how to safely navigate obstacles from any stride, without being told exactly where to take off every time.

This way, if things do go a little wrong, and you find yourself approaching a jump without being able to see the correct stride, then you know that your horse will be able to use his own brain, and get you both out of trouble, and safely over the jump.

Sunsprite Warmbloods – The Best is Still to Come!

by Cheryl Erpelding

Breeding superior warmbloods has been Pamela Duffy’s lifelong work. Pam states, “I have been fortunate enough to have had horses in my life for fifty-five years at this point and the responsibilities and joys of partnering with so many equine friends have been life-changing. As soon as I could walk, the experience that I craved was sitting on an equine’s back.” Her first competition, in Mexico, was in Show Jumping. As a young rider, with her mounts Chula and Naranjal, she entered multiple competitions and faced many challenges. It was a very competitive field and at the same time, a fun and amicable experience.
