>>>> Think about this: scenario: in Iceland, way back when, when they were looking for stuff to do in the winter... if the horses were good at jumping, it would have been the thing to do, would have become part of the horse culture,
Why would they have started jumping in the WINTER, in a country where it's icy outside? The hunter-jumper sports originated in countries where people literally hunted (foxes or other animals), and had to jump over fences to get around the countryside. I thought fences were new to Iceland...? I don't follow you. Karen Thomas, NC No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
