This book is a good resource for anyone coaching or riding over fences. Section 1 consists of 25 ground pole exercises, from the basic figure-eight over a pole to not-so-basic figure-eights over poles, to an entire course of poles with pace changes. Later exercises incorporate the ground-pole exercises into grids and work at the canter with lead changes. Far from being the required "boring stuff" that is presented before you get to the actual jumping, the pole work is fresh and challenging and will be a welcome addition to anyone's training schedule.

As the book progresses, exercises get increasingly challenging. There is something for all levels of riders, from 'D' Level Pony Clubbers to those preparing for 4' jumpers. Just as valuable as the exercises are the in-depth explanations and directions. Problem-solving, double-check, and tip boxes are provided for each exercise. Benefits are also clearly explained.
