Practical Showjumping by Judith Draper

Practical Showjumping by Judith Draper

There is more to successful showjumping than the right conformation: enthusiasm 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.

Judith Draper has been a horse and pony enthusiast since she was a little girl, and she is an accomplished writer of books and articles about horses. In 1999, Judith was named Equestrian Writer of the Year by the British Horse Society. She is also the author of Kingfisher's My First Horse and Pony Book.

Matthew Roberts is a highly experienced freelance equestrian photographer, whose work appears in Your Horse, Britain's best-selling equestrian monthly magazine.
