Do you think this is right?

[Ahrena]

When I saw this, I was appalled. But I posted it on a forum and everyone seemed to think it wasn't a big deal.

Opinions?

No problems here, lovely young horse with a good jump and nice paces.

 

[Baggybreeches]

Appalled by what? I see a horse being loose jumped?

[eventersrus]

What were you appalled about?

 

[Shilasdair]

That's from an experienced stud owner in Scotland - I know of them - they used to have a black stallion called Dutch Falco....
Looks fine to me..although as a worry wort I'd probably clear all the excess wings etc out of the way.

[the watcher]

Explain what appalled you about it.

 

[Guinness]

Is it because its only three? Personally I think three is too young to be jumping horses, but I would be more disapproving than appalled?

Oh lord I posted the wrong link! I'm very sorry hang on!!!

VERY SORRY I POSTED THE WRONG LINK. I thought I still had the right on on my copy and paste. No jumping the 3 year old is fine, my bad. This is what I was appalled about. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-YhUVPcKWqk

Make sure you check the age at the start of the vid

 

[jenbleep]

i don't think it's too young if your only loose jumping them ever so often

 

[Shilasdair]

Studs usually loose jump their youngstock like this in Scotland...then if they show talent, they keep them...if they don't....

[jenbleep]

you would only do it to see their scope and how they tackle a fence, see what they got to work with!!

 

[Ahrena]

Posted the right link in a post on the previous page by the way. God I am an idiot -laughs-
