Ive heard there not doing it anymore :(

Was absolutly brilliant (was only 11 when i went mind :p)

Beautiful horses, and brilliant for the rest of the non-horsey family :D

So anyone ever been to see it?
 
I have been three times..and hope to go again in october.It is a lovely evening and the horses are fab..i wish my horses were as well schooled as theirs.Hubby fell in love with the palamino.
 
yes we went last year...........it was bloody fantastic, a brilliant night out.
would def go again, as i would for the whole florida experience (been 9 times :] )
love the place and people.
 
Went as a kid about 20 years ago and loved it, went again last year and was very disappointed. Around half the horses were severely lame, you can forgive the odd stifness as I suppose some are fairly old but these were hopping! Very disappointed with the dressage moves as not very well executed and the vaulting was awful. We left before the end as it ruined the night to see beautiful horses being forced to work when they clearly shouldnt be. Think it is probably good for those not in the know who just go to see the horses but I was expecting so much more having seen the travelling horse shows in the Uk. Just my opinion though!

I went about 5 years ago, i couldnt have told you if a horse ws lame unless it was limping lol

I have to admit Spirit of the horse, was amazing :D I saw that 20 mins from where i live :D
 
Went when I was 5 :) (11 years ago now!) It was fabulous, have the photos somewhere & the booklet though it's a bit tatty now :o Would love to go again if we went back to america :)

Also been to Spirit of the Horse & Appassionata - didn't really rate SotH but Appassionata was amazing! Horse ontop of a grand piano isn't something you see every day!! :D
