[RC] horses that love to jump - Dot Wiggins

Had one years ago that would jump out of a perfectly good pasture, leaving his buddies, just for fun. Jump back if we took the other horses in. The only horse I know that would jump a wire fence, on his own, safely. (He'd walk up till the top wire touched him, then stand back a stride and take off.) If he got bored waiting while tied to the corral fence, he'd jump to the other side. (With less then 3 feet of halter rope he could clear a 4 pole corral without touching a pole or taking the slack out of the halter rope. Incredible athlete)

To make this endurance related--Tevis started while I had this horse, if there had been any way to get there we would have tried it. He was an Arab Saddlebred cross.
