Not quite sure what standing on a horse shows. At least she is wearing a hat.

ooo Dear...

Is that a nikki sixx piccy in your avatar? Love him

 

[hellsdarkrose]

It is Nikki Sixx I love him too!!

He is my favourite member of Motley Crue.

hehe, love motley crüe too. Doesn't achieve anything by standing on a horse. Oh well what ever floats her boat i guess..

200% on flatwork but not novice ride??????

 

[hellsdarkrose]

It also says it's safe and not forward going so why not novice ride.

Very odd.

Horse doesn't look very comfortable with her standing on it all her weight channeled on one spot. I suppose it is her way of proving how good he is.

How to damage a saddle and a horse's back in one simple manoeuvre...

 

[Gorgeous George]

does seem a very odd thing to do, and not particularly safe no matter how good the horse.

Every time I've been to our local horse dealer to look at horses with friends he's stood on their backs. We've even told him not to bother because it doesn't prove anything, but he still does it, every time.

There's a black cob on horsequest where someone is doing this too!

If it's such a good horse then why has she got such a long schooling whip in her hand? And if it's safe and not forward going then why a Dutch gag?

Another thing, liver chestnut highland ponies have silver manes and tails, doesn't look too much like a highland pony to me but I could be wrong.

I don't think there is anything wrong with standing on a horses back, using the proper equipment as you will probably break your saddle, but I don't think putting it in an ad for your horse will impress potential buyers....
