Pocket rocket.
Jetset George is well named! He was called Jet after the black gemstone of course, but now it suits him in both ways - he's fast now he's fit! We went for a some interval training and I finished a third run on a full gallop and boy did he go for it. We had a lovely hack too, though he jogged on the way out he was pretty darned relaxed on the way back. I'm getting far too fond of the little chap :-)
I had enough time left to try some lengthened strides with Jazz. He is getting the idea slowly and I am being careful not to upset him mentally or unbalance him physically by asking for too much of a movement that he is not naturally built to produce with ease. I think when they happen they are going to be spectacularly powerful, and the seeds are definitely there now.
Our competitions today were rained off and it looks like more tonight!

I am glad I do not live in teh Uk anymore. I like my summer hot ^-^
Still dry here but rain on the way. Sorry about your outings, but it seems you had fun with George anyhow.
Quite a special fellow that George. Every time you ride him you find a new reason to love him.
Good move with Jazz. A little at a time goes far.

Wettest August for 100 years Muriel. Not good!
After a quarter mile uphill gallop I had to pull up quite hard to stop him jumping the wall at the top of the field Jean :-)
He's got to go one day Nicola - either that or one of the other two ...
