Pao asked:


I’m putting together a Draft horse Fun show with under saddle classes and need some suggestions about jump classes. (yes some people want a jump course!) Should I just offer very simple courses with 4-5 jumps, no in-and out difficulty? love to hear some thoughts.

    I would make it plain and simple since draft horses aren’t usually your best jumpers. Personally I would just do like 6-8 strides between jumps for the horses to land and be able to pick up some momentum again.

    Also, you might want to offer different jump levels: Maybe a 2ft, 2′6″ and 2′9″ class.
