Who said that Thoroughbreds can’t jump? If you look at the jumper ring today, most of the horses you’ll see are warmbloods. When I was growing up, almost all the jumpers were Thoroughbreds. It just so happens that the horse that set inside Puissance record (back in 1983) was Sweet ‘n Low, a 17.1 hand Thoroughbred ridden by Anthony d’Ambrosio. The pair cleared 7’7 1/2″. I can’t even imagine riding down to a wall like that and having a horse that would consider it a jump! The record still stands.
