Arghhhhh!

Looks like an off day. From what I have seen, that isn’t his normal riding style. While I agree that temper has no place on the horse, I have to admit that we are all guilty of letting our anger show on horseback, I certainly am. I am not proud of it in any way, but it’s happened.

Who knows what this horse does normally anyway. Maybe he was taking off in the warm-up? Generally a reaction like this doesn’t just happen out of the blue.

Here are some other videos.

Did I miss a second video of same rider/same horse? I thought the other video was same rider/different horse.[/QUOTE]

Yes. Post #51

[QUOTE=chicagojumper;8505960]FWIW, there’s another video of this pair from the same week at WEF that is much better. Horse is much more in front of the leg, leaning less on the hand, and generally more rideable. Rider is keeping emotions in check and being effective, they go around nicely albeit with a couple rails. Horse still looks like a tough ride though.
