Had a great ride yesterday

Took Occy out for a ride yesterday evening. Best ride I’ve had on him.  As we have spent a bit of time in the arena it was time for a stress free gallop and a bit of hill work. Took him down the creek track, which meant we had to cross the creek. A stationary water jump is one thing, but we have had arguments about the moving water bit. But today he only very briefly checked to see if I really did want to cross the creek. Then instead of a wild leap across it, it was a quite casual jump J. The gallop after was controllable. The few  Cross Country jumps I have were jumped calmly without backing off. All good signs for Wandin this weekend. Have another session with my coach tomorrow night to sharpen up the showjumping.
