Statutory rider and horse equipment
Jumping training
Instructor: The horse is warmed up so I think we can move to riding through poles. I will slightly raise their ends and make cavaletti out of them. Let's start from the side of the door.
Trainee: In a two‑point positiontwo‑point position or risingrising?
I: In the two‑point position. Remember about a straight, long approachapproach and to pay attention to the middle of the poles.
T: My horse was not raising its legs today at all. It's hoof hit almost every pole!
I: Because you forgot about the engaging calfengaging calf. Try again. If that doesn't help, use the whip.
T: Yes, that's much better. I will change the direction and approach from the other side.
I: Great, try to look forward and not to disturb the rhythm. The hand maintains a flexible contact with the horse's mouth.
T: And now?
I: Yes, now it was very well. Pat the horse and move to a walk. After you rest for a little while, we'll jump a few times from trot. Approach those cross railscross rails.
T: Do we landland on the right or the left leg?
I: On the right, then make a circle with canter. On the next jump we will add a flying changeflying change.
T: Through the middle?
I: That will work. The jump was very good but remember to look forward. I'm adding fencesfences, we will turn this into jump‑leapjump‑leap combination. Gymnastic lineGymnastic line will help to loosen up the horse a bit.
T: Can I approach the obstacle in canter in a jumping positionjumping position?
I: Yes but calculate the bouncing moment well.
T: It's difficult to do when the horse is running very fast forward when it sees the obstacle.
I: Try to utilise the half‑halthalf‑halt and back up before the jump. Very well, we will do that a few more times and then I will change the cross rails to the verticalvertical. But first a moment of walk. Take a break. You can loosen the rain, but remember to actively ride forward.

Upcoming race
Ladies and Gentlemen!
It seems that we have a busy week in front of us. It's crowning moment will be the first time mountingmounting a horse for some of you.
Those who participate in the race for the first time on the weekend need to remember to appear in front of the weighing judgeweighing judge at least 30 minutes before the start or even 45 minutes earlier. Take all of your equipment for the weighing including your helmet and vest and excluding the breastplate, bridle, glasses, whip, saddle cloth and legs. Weighing is mandatory also after the race. You leave the track in the saddle and unsaddle the horses by yourselves. The weight before and after the racerace should be the same otherwise you could be facing a disqualificationdisqualification!
Riding students, that is those who haven't won 10 races yet have a four‑kilogram weight reliefweight relief.
I would like to also remind you that the carrying weight for thoroughbredsthoroughbreds in flat racing is for 2 years old horses 53 kg, for 3 years old horses 61 kg, and for 4 years old horses and older 62 kg.
I know that some of you will try to lose weight before the race. Please remember that extremely dehydrated rider is not able to use their full potential. Spending two hours in the sauna before the race is not a good solution! Balanced diet and additional sport is much more effective. I appeal to your common sense in this matter.
Regarding the trainings, we will work on the same thing as usual, that is strengthstrength and shapeshape. We will gradually increase loadincrease load to improve the enduranceendurance and fitnessfitness of the horses.
This week we will move to the working trackworking track and apart from working canterworking canter we will also train regular canterregular canter.
I invite you to a briefing on Friday to discuss the races planraces plan and the tacticstactics for individual races.
Kind regards and I wish you to only finish in paid places,
Instructor Wiśniewski

Adjusting the riding equipment
Well adjustedadjusted equipmentequipment is the basis of the proper training of the horse. Incorrectly adjusted equipment, besides causing abrasions and discomfort can also interfere with the horses proper movement.
Saddle
Well selected saddle distributes the body mass of the rider and absorbs shock. When choosing the saddle we need to determine its purpose above all. Dressage saddles have deep seatseat and long stirrupsstirrups. Jumping saddles are used for two‑point position, therefore their seat is flat and stirrups are shorter. Riders, who haven't decided yet which way their sports career will go, should use all‑purpose saddlesall‑purpose saddles.
When purchasing a saddle we need to remember about adjusting its size to the rider. Both height and weight are important. The taller the rider, the longer the flapsflaps should be (sizes from S to L), and the thicker the rider, the bigger the seat should be (from 16 to 19 inches).
It is important to take into consideration the build of the horse as well. It is necessary to select the right pummelpummel size. For horses with bigger witherswithers and narrow back, the size will be smaller than for horses with small withers and a wide back.
Bridle
Similarly to saddles, there are many types of bridlesbridles on the market. HackamoresHackamores are available with different types of nosebandsnosebands like Hanover, Mexican or combination. It is worth to select one that corresponds to the build of our horse and the riding discipline we participate in. Their size is usually designated as Shetty, Pony, COB and FULL.
Selecting the bitbit is another difficulty. Again there are many possibilities here, starting from simple bitbit to complicated curbs selected by dressage riders. It is important for the bit to be of the same length as the horse's mouth. Its size is the length given in millimeters measured between the rings.
