Likes: Smiling on command for carrots. His own company. Wandering around slowly eating all day.
Dislikes: Rugs and being asked to smile on command when there are no carrots involved! Also hates
water (puddles & water jumps) but loves the water at the beach!
Personality/Quirks: Has an enormous jump with the ability to go far, however is an extremely sensitive
typical thoroughbred, who is very easily tipped over the edge if you ask too much of him. He has so much
spring and is very careful, however he tends to balloon over his fences jumping much higher than needed
and dangling his front legs. He is now quite laid back, however that wasn't always the case!
Currently: Getting fit ready to commence the '08 showjumping season
Aims: By the end of 2008 I would like to have henry back competing confidently at a height he is
comfortable with.
