When you have them raised, you will want to start out with them a body length apart so he does one at a time, then bring one up close to the other one, where he'll have to go step step over them, then just add maybe up to four in a row, then a walking break before doing them again.

My pony is a disaster with them like that, if I put up poles or cavaletti right close together, she'll try to jump the whole show no matter how wide ;~D It confuses her and she just likes to jump.

Here's some more examples to look at:

This one below is super cool. I may do this, because I like the variability in heights.

She's got hers turned around low.

These are cool... look like they are mounted to a square instead of a cross, and off-center so you can vary the height.

Thanks. I feel rather a dunce. I really don't know if I "assumed" she meant on the ground, or if she said something that made me think that. I do know for sure she said cavaletti. But having them raised that much makes a whole lot more sense. I could see where 15 minutes of that would be a work out.

Be careful with the wooden standards though becaue they rot, and they can get very very heavy. And they splinter. We had wooden standards for schooling that were just like that and they were SUCH a pain to move around. I'd invest in a set of standards, and then make your jump poles. It's worth it in my opinion. :-)
