So this is the horse that im leasing for the summer! He’s a 15 hand dutch warmblood, and I’m 5’9 so I make him look like a pony! This was our first show together, and probably my 10 or 12th time riding him!
This was the first fence in the class. He is easier to ride up to the oxers than to wait for deeper distances at the moment. We are working with 10′ poles at home!
Thanks in advance! I will post videos later but i just love this photo!
Also, on a side note. This horse was a dressage horse before he was brought into our program. He only has half a tounge. Were not sure if this is because of an accident on his part, or if it was something that they do in the dressage world? he was imported from the Netherlands.
Could you please downsize your photo to no more than 600 pixels wide? It is too large for our frame and is half covered by the graphics on the side
Your horse looks pretty good. Amazing knees and he took off evenly in the back. You’re leg slipped back pretty far, and your elbows are sticking out. Although I LOVE how you’re looking towards the next jump already. Try flexing your abs and focus on getting your elbows. I find that when I flex my abs over a jump, I want to bring my arms in. Looking great other than that!
