This person is wanting to sell the horse I presume.......then why oh why is the maker of the video throwing every special effect at it. Changing colour, flashing, repeating, jerkiness etc etc. Just post a straight forward video that can be watched by people & they can see how the horse moves without the constant irritating interuptions!

Video irritated the hell out of me as well!
I liked the horse though.

I was just about to post something of the same lol! Gave up watching it in the end....was doing my head in lol.
Ditto the annoying video. Looks likes it's been made by a hyperactive teenager (the same one riding , i suspect)
Looks like a lovely, honest, genuine horse. GO SEE HIM!!! He's excetly the type of horse I'd be interested in!
He does look stiff and stilted in the flatwork clips but like others said I'm guess it's from the rider sawing him into an outline and doing nothing with his hindend. He looks so much more fluent and forwards in the XC videos when the rider's forgotten to interfere
The jumping looks like that's probabaly the limit of his ability -he's having to put effort into it, not least to ignore the riders getting him his way! Mind you, it's not small and if you're not wanting a Grade A jumper, it doesn't matter.
I would highly reccomend getting in properly vetted however, if I do like him, to check the stiffness is just the rider, not any actual lameness.
