CDJ withdrawn from paris

Here are some quite astonishing oral (and other) conflict behaviours very recently from a horse that's clearly struggling on multiple fronts. At the beginning, the mouth is gaping even when the reins are given entirely for significant periods. Strikes me as a complete rejection by this poor horse of what he's being expected to do.

I am more sad to see that it's Ingrid Klimke in that clip than actually seeing that clip .

I'm sadly used to seeing that sort of thing from dressage these days - but to see it from her... So very disappointing.

To me, Vayron's mouth is just silently saying 'Aaaaaaaaaarrrggghhh' .

It's been said often enough that if horses vocalised like dogs none of this stuff would be happening to them.

Interesting interview from 1995

In that klimke video the weymouth bradoon is very high

I never liked klimke when he was at his height, something was not quite right about it

Years after i read another interview he did, when challenged that certain things were not quite performed as they should be, correctly, he actually said. ' i like to win, i do what it takes to win'

Was just about to say the same thing, I had hoped she was better than that whether it be eventing or pure dressage. When I got my ex racer as a teenager and had to pretty much restart her from scratch Reiner Klimkes book was my absolute bible, it preached and preached about long and low soft and supple so also very disappointed to read Tristars comment above about him. The whole world and everyone in it, it seems just sucks

I read something on a forum/board somewhere that was extremely off-putting about Reiner Klimke I think at the LA Olympics specifically, but my memory of what, where and who said it is so hazy that I don't want to speculate. But it left a bad taste along these lines.
