Hey! 
Me and Imran did our 1st XC course at the weekend.
It wasn't competitive, but we had a good play around!
Here are a few pictures for you, though i've got about 150 so I just picked a few.
Hope you like them 
Thought i'd send him over 'on line' 1st
 One of our 1st jumps of the day
 Safer on the ground I though for this one!!
Loads of pics, sorry....got loads more too!!!!

Wow what a beautiful horse, I think you're very brave and you look great together, you obviously have a wonderful partnership How do you find riding in a halter? Have you always ridden your baby this way, or have you had them in a bit before?

Wow Jessica, those pics are wonderful! Well done
So nice to see you ride in the halter and 12ft line. Was it a Parelli Course you were on?

Just love these pics Jessica!
I used to ride my boys in halters with a long line for reins, and out jumping always got sneered at by the "gadget/martingale/strap-everything-down crew" on their big warmbloods.
Nice to see that its becoming more common now for people to enjoy their horses this way! They have so much more fun without the metal! You can just see your boy smiling
Well done you!!

Jessica..Crystal would be having FAR too much fun hooning about if I didn't have a bit in....she likes going fast...just the stopping we have trouble with (last time we went to the beach took us the best part of 2 MILES to pull up....silly mare)
Also might have probs with the jumpy bit...she's usually going far too fast to bother bout jumping, and poor mum ends up hanging round her neck...well I used to, one thing she has taught me above anything...how to stay put when your horse goes sideways at about 100mph!!!!! Crystal is still the only horse I know who can do Half Pass at the gallop!

| Fabulous photos who says arabs cant jump! He's a lovely looking boy and i'm so impressed with all these people that ride in the halters - I might have to invest in one. |
