SJ Lesson with Richard Barton

[chelljacobs]

We we're very lucky on Friday to have Richard Barton come down to do a jump clinic, he was there all day with groups of 2. So my sister and I had a lesson on our ponies! J was very good, and only had a couple of stops/slow leaps at some scary fillers he hadn't seen before. Not so many of Ricky, as camera lady was on phone. We had a great day, and Richard has agreed to come and do it all again! Yey!

Will upload some piccies of the BSPA champs from the weekend soon to, he was a star! Two 3rds and a 4th!

We also jumped on Sunday, he was sooooo naughty!!! Lol. But jumped everything at great speed and anger (i'd won our lil arguement of going into the ring... he's been trying to stay with Ricky).... was the best he's ever jumped and was a great day, had a pole down, but being so quick we got 2nd! Excellents!

Now onto the piccies

Hi

Richard & Janet Barton are my instructors and live in the next village on from me in Wilsden, West Yorkshire. They are brilliant!! I have regular lessons with them. Glad you had such a good time with Richard, I shall take this round to them tonight so they can see how pleased you were, it will really make them happy.

Jen, I'm sure they will remember you, I'll pass on your regards.

Alison their daughter is part of the GB Show jumping squad and is jumping JA, so it's a proper full on horsey family!

How lucky am I to have such great instructors on my doorstep??
