i have no idea what its doing if not bucking?!

classy ad eh? one pic of a horse 'not bucking or rearing' and another of it being ridden on a road with someone wearing no hat and talking on her mobile...
 
What awful pictures, who in their right mind would put a picture of someone riding out with no hat AND on the phone?!

So what is it doing in that picture?

And it takes no time at all to spell check your adverts (sorry that's the teacher in me). Wouldn't go near them with a barge pole.
 
Nevermind the rearing, I do believe she is riding on the road without a hat and talking on her mobile at the same time!
 
oh, i agree about the spelling, though even if it was perfect the rest would put me off, horse actually looks nice in the last one.

And wearing trainers without stirrups with cages. All their adverts are very similar - and the "spillin is dreedfall"

Even without looking at the ad, I had a feeling it would be Ms Barksway Horses (no hat, general incredulity at photos). Oh, what it is to be right. I doubt that horse is anything he is described as, except possibly black. Even then. you'd be well advised to check for the presence of Cherry Blossom Parade Gloss...

it's not rearing or bucking... it's about to buck. so, she's not exactly lying...

maybe he's just having fun... not the pic i'd have chosen to use, i'll admit it.
and she's riding in jeans. absolute pet hate of mine. yeuk. wrecks saddles, rubs legs.

Maybe they are trying to prove that the horse may be ok on the roads, showing 'look i can ride him perfectly with no hat, stirrups, whilst on the phone and trundeling down a main road' I think that is such a bad advert, the last picture is the only decent one. Tempted to ask what he actually was doing in that first picture!
 
Well, if anyone dares to find out what exactly that manoeuvre is called if not "on the verge of bucking" please do post the answer because I am also intrigued.
 
I was so intrigued after reading all the replies - I want to see it :wails:
