Another Jumper

Today, we gained another jumper in the family, with Sophie taking her first ever fence with 'Jaguar'. The first one wasn't amazing, but got the job done, while the second and third jumps were quite pleasing. That was the point where we decided to quit while we were ahead, but Sophie was smiling from ear to ear and 'Jaguar' was obviously happy to do it - he'd have just stopped and threw Sophie over his head if he wasn't, as he's that way inclined! It's been a real pleasure watching these two grow up together, and the Gymkhana GP is their next target. Interestingly, Jaguar may well be moving up in the dressage categories, too, as Louis will be practicing the L1 class with him - he may well even take Orion's place in the All-Japan Championships at this rate...
