Courses for Horses by Christopher Coldrey

It is a fact that there are more jumping events than there are good course builders. A good course designer is both architect and artist, and he or she must understand not only the mind, body and level of ability of the horse, but also consider the rider, the type of event and the spectator. This is a complete guide to course building, with analysis of how a horse jumps, tests and distances and planning and setting up a course as well as a look at the use of water in courses, indoor jumping and courses for ponies.
Christopher Coldrey has been an international course designer for thirty years and has built courses in twelve countries on five continents. The first edition of this book was published in 1978, the year in which he won the coveted Wills Course Designer of the Year award. He has also competed as a show jumping rider in eight countries.
