description: Showing how best to tackle a range of fences selected from actual cross-country events, this book follows rider Leslie Law and his horses through a range of events at novice, intermediate and advanced levels. Every course asks different questions of the horses and riders who tackle it, and every course designer has a different aim in mind when planning a course. Some concentrate on speed and boldness, others on an increased degree of accuracy, and the competitors' technical ability is continually tested by new fences and combinations. The book examines how Law deals with each of the fences featured, and sequence photography records his experiences on different horses. The problems which he and other competitors encountered, and how his performance might have been improved, are considered, and there is an insight into the world of the course designer, with first-hand explanations of the object of particular fences and how each one relates to the course as a whole.
