Practical Showjumping (Ward Lock Riding School Series)
by: Draper, Judith

and the right temperament, in both the horse and rider, are just as important
in creating a partnership which really works. Judith Draper shows how
that parnership is produced, by selecting the right horse and following
a thorough training programme. She explains: how the horse is taught to
jump; basic schooling; the use of simple practice fences; how to ride
a course; show procedure; and travelling with the horse. She also gives
advice on equipment and clothing for horse and rider, and on caring for
the horse both at home and away. B/W & Color photos. 112 pgs.
