One of the great strengths of the double European and Badminton Champion, Pippa Funnell, is her ability to forge successful partnerships with her new horses and she cannot stress strongly enough the importance of developing that unique relationship.

 

In this program Pippa sets out a series of exercises to help assess the new horse and then deal with and work on some of the common problems. Three horses of differing ability and experience are used in the flat work and show jumping exercises with Pippa riding the 4 and 6 year olds and then teaching a pupil on the third more experienced but older horse.

 

This program concludes with an introduction to cross country riding and in particular how to start off your training for this discipline.
