Packed with exercises for finessing your technique and insightful solutions to classic jumping difficulties, Better Jumping is a wonderfully practical and inspiring book that will set you on the path to jumping success, whatever your level.

However competent or experienced you are, you will always want to improve - to jump better. From being a complete beginner to competing at the highest level, there is always more to be done, and gridwork is the key, the building blocks of a winning partnership. Jumping trainer Carol Mailer, believes that these and many more problems can be overcome with the help of the grid: *My horse is nappy and bad tempered; is there any chance of him ever competing? *How can I help my horse jump straight? *My new horse was perfect when I bought him. Now he's stopping, running out or charging off with me. Why is he doing it? *I'm an inexperienced rider with a new horse. How can I form a good partnership when we start jumping? *Why does my horse keep putting extra strides in? *Is there a way to calm my horse down and make him listen to me? *I'm having a job stopping my horse cutting corners. Any ideas? Packed with exercises for finessing your technique and insightful solutions to classic jumping difficulties, Better Jumping is a wonderfully practical and inspiring book that will set you on the path to success, whatever your level.

Carol Mailer began riding at 8-years-old and always wanted to jump. She was fortunate to be trained by the late Margaret Clarke who introduced her to grid work. Margaret Millward continued the progress, and with such a sound basic understanding from both experts, Carol devised and developed her own methods which she shares with you in Better Jumping. She is a regular contributor on jumping and grid work to Your Horse magazine, and is one of the experts in the Q & A features. She has successfully trained riders and horses of all standards for the last 30 years, from complete beginners to Advanced Eventers and HOYS winners. She still occasionally competes, and wins, on her beloved Jolson.
