Wow that's some jump. Imagine sitting on it, i can visualize it now me totally flying through the air not being able to hang on , make a good puissance horse.

What the ***???? Who can sit that??? The horse massively overjumps the jumps...

Might not be too good in a tournament situation though... you'll lose in the time stakes.. lol!
 
You think they used weird training techniques??? Like sensitizing the legs or that sort of jump that goes up after the horse has already left the ground so that it will always knock down the top pole - don't know what it's called but it's been abolished in a few countries?
 
is that where they have a person each side of the top pole and as the horse jumps it they raise it up so the horse hits its legs on it?
no wonder its been abolished, its so cruel!
 
I don't think he's been rapped..... legs are still a little untidy infront and just looks like he's enjoying himself. Wouldn't surprise me if he ends up over jumped and doesn't do anything like that in a year or two

Yes, that's it... hope they didn't do that to this horse. If they didn't, it must really want to get over those jumps.

I'd say that its probably a youngster which is why it has jumped it sooooo big. My youngster does it, obviously not that BIG but she'll learn its a waste of energy when there's no need.
 
well i just think he has a wikid jump and he looks like hes happy to me so i dont see a problem.. their obviously profesinals

I agree, he'll soon learn to save his energy, I certainly don't think he'll jump like that with a rider on

:) Impressive stuff though, hope they don't over do it with him.
