  Jumping Lane    
             
    This is an oval loose jumping school where the horses jump their first ever obstacles. It consists of a telegraph pole threaded through tyres, which can be on the ground or raised up to a height of 4 feet. The horses are attached by a long rope and start by being led over the tyres. When they are confident about jumping they are let loose and go around on their own.    
         
       
         
       
         
       
         
       
               
    One of the best parts of a trainers day is watching a horse enjoying his first jumping lesson and doing it naturally. Some take longer to learn than others, but they grow to love it very quickly.
