Will start with the recent pictures and a little story, At GYS i was having problems with Troy, he was explosive and i would have withdrawn if the gallop experience down that ring wasn't as good as it was, anyway he just about kept a lid on it all with a few overspills but i had a lovely gallop, in the end we came 32nd or something, which we are still moving on up, just deffinatley deserved to be last from what it felt like, anyway we had the vet out to him to check him over, and we all came to the conclusion that because he is just that fit, he's VERY fresh with it, so i have been working him hard every day, *touch wood* we are on a roll and he's coming ALOT better. Here are the boys with there ice lollies and a little picture of my A at the local show, he's really coming on now, still has baby moments but I'm proud of him, he came 2nd in his inhand and both ridden classes, and 6th in his working hunter! I know my stirrups are a teeny bit too short and my leathers are too long but these are pinched from Troys saddle Last night we had a jumping lesson with Joe Whitaker, i went in my little snaffle and braved it and he worked miracles with us, by the end i was cantering round popping jumps on a loose rein, and he sneakily put the jump up to a whopping 1.20! and one of him jumping down the biggest drop at xc, he's so bold! Anyway, i need opinions on my little A, what do you prefer him in? Halter or bridle, he's a 7 year old gelding if that helps

Both your boys are looking amazing, especially the GYS pics although he does look a bit strong in the first pic!! Personally I prefer your section A in the white halter for in hand. Were you at the Leg Up show at Doncaster at the beginning of June with your A? I thought I spotted you in the results?
Good luck for the rest of the season and with your jumping x
