Leaving a horse plaited - one weekend to the next?

Just saw that they did a dressage test in a crop top/bra. Seems a bit bizarre? And fallen off again...

I think she was just schooling at home. I kinda admire her confidence in posting the photos whilst also thinking WTAF!!

That horse is a saint. I’m not sure she quite realises how lucky she is and what a rude awakening she is in for when she needs to replace him!

Oh, it was captioned as professional images taken at the dressage 🤔

I find the horse a little bit odd as well, he seems lovely but just has a weird form? Can't explain it.

He’s a complete cut’n’shut for sure. But I have a soft spot for him.

*Mutters* there's nothing wrong with a complete cut’n’shut.....I own one and he's a saint. Although I do sometimes wish that his front end's genes were a tiny bit taller than his back end's genes, rather than the other way around. 😆

He is very sweet but just looks gangly, especially when jumping, bless him! When he holds himself in a nice outline though, he does look lovely.

I'm really surprised that the dressage place allowed that outfit but maybe the rules are different 🤷‍♀️
 
I don't know who you're talking about, but I assume it's an 'influencer'

I imagine she did it to get people to talk about it. She makes money from people's reactions.

Grubby really. Bit like that Sox stallion owner who purposely posts her horse behaving badly to get a reaction.
 
I think even for ‘dress down dressage’ some decorum should be adhered to.
But maybe I’m just old fashioned 😂.
It’s a toss up between her and the woman what owns Sox the stallion for horse numpty owner of the year. Although I think Sox’s owner is more clued up to channelling the rage bait into clicks and likes.

I wouldn't even wear that to go out hacking! 🙈

I’d be even less likely to wear it hacking in case of gravel rash 😳

I have a scar on my back from coming off as a teenager, wearing a top that just had criss cross straps at the back, leaving my lower back mostly bare.

This just reminded me that it's there. I had completely forgot about it. I can't see it you see....it's behind me.

I'd also like to nominate Tara for hnooty. I'd rather be Mr Mo any day than Bella. It was also purely luck that Farouk didn't get hit by a car when he went on an excursion by himself down the road. So many numpties to pick from 😵‍💫.
 
The page name has changed from what was mentioned at the start of the thread, it's antics rather than adventures now. I couldn't find it and was very perplexed as to what I'd done to get blocked by a page I'd never interacted with.

Mo is really lovely though.
 
We got a right rollocking off my boss once for schooling in bikini tops... In the height of summer... In Spain... As a teen. He did get us some smart sleeveless polo tops after that though.

My daughter has a scar from elbow to wrist which you can see when she is tanned as it stays white. She slid along the grass after coming off during XC. She had pushed her long sleeves above the elbow because it was hot.
She says she will never forget the pain caused by the dressing changes as it healed.
 
Leaving a horse plaited for days on end is a very good idea if you want to remove fly protection and have the mane fall out in handfuls never to grow properly again.
 
A girl I worked with many years ago came off when wearing a sleeveless top and had a lot of treatment and scars from gravel. That said I remember back in the 1980s warming up a showjumping competition and one of our top Olympic lady riders was wearing a boob tube whilst warming up and jumping the practice fence - obviously she put a stock and jacket on to go in the room but I was pretty impressed everything stayed in place. It was all pretty relaxed back then.
