Given his huge size Sam is remarkably together and helpful, which is just as well as Louise is so tiny! Starting with trotting poles, Louise moves on to a crosspole. Sam obliges but doesn't make much effort. Only when faced with a small upright does he break out of a trot to jump! Encouraged by this, Louise introduces him to his first double, where where he shows some talent for a future in eventing! Louise explains the importance of a progressive approach to allow time to absorb the learning and says keep sessions short as youngsters tire easily.
