OMG look at the jump on this !!

Hmmm thats why I plan on going to the next Z auctions....

But i'll have to sit on my hands. I've already got one horse with a Z stamped on its bum.
 
someone posted something similar to this in NL a few weeks ago....

Cant think its doing its joints much good, and i wouldnt want to be jumping it if it gives its fences that much room with a rider on board! (altho quite often they dont jump the same under saddle)
 
I posted about this earlier , wondering if its just got masses and masses and masses of scope or theres been some sinister goings on in this horses training

But either way WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW

ETA if you look at other vids of this horse well i thinks its this horse it under saddle , and even loose it doesn't jump that high

I wouldn't want to be sitting on that when it jumps!! Have bought a horse from the Z auctions before and he was disappointing once he was in training

Made money on him though!!!!
 
Sorry, but seriously think that horse has been rapped. Its not natural to jump like that. Wouldnt want it, would be too easy for it to jack it all in if it is indeed natuarlly that careful, occasionally I expect to get it wrong and wouldnt want a horse that looses the plot when i do!!
 
This vid has been posted on numerous occasions before....the horse is never gonna win a speed class lets face it....the opposition will be half way round the course while this one's still jumping the first fence

I think it's awesome. Even if thats the best jump it'll ever produce in its life, look at how athletic it is and how balanced it lands.

I'll have it please!
 
i'm sorry to be the dissenter, but that's not good or natural at all. it'll wreck its joints and back, and i bet it won't have 1/4 that jump under saddle. it's jumping waaay higher than it needs to, freakishly so, poor thing, makes me wonder why..?
 
I would agree that it does look odd... FWIW, my sj trainer says that horses who overjump tend to back off & throw in the towel when the jumps go up cos they're so ultra careful that they don't want to touch anything, whereas the horses who just do what they need to tend to be braver.
 
I think its a bit of a snap judgement to say its been rapped. I've personally ridden a horse that has a huge jump because she is green (nowhere near that big of course!) and came out of my schooling round and overheard someone saying "that horse has clearly been rapped". Of course I put them straight, the mare was just young and green and liked to give a LOT of room between herself and the jump (would frequently be about a good few inches over the top of the wings for a 2'6" jump.
ETS she has now calmed down, thank god!
 
That is green babyness G_I and the person that commented on rapping obviously wasnt familiar with babies going "OMG" at fences. However, this horse is unnaturally going higher and higher over the fence and almost contorting itself. That is NOT natural, specially when you consider it WOULD have been loose jumped over similar fences before that video in prep.

I agree, Who knows what they do to those horses to produce them for the sales. They either blow their brains or you have soundness issues later. I remember seeing a video of Quidam's Rubin who was very impressive loose jumping but wasn't trainable enough to compete.
I am more interested in what they do under saddle personally.
 
thats a massive jump and a little high for my liking!!! has ne body clicked on the link with the title 'im too sexy'(stallion and round bale) is to the right of the horse jumping!! made me chuckle and oooh what fun a round bale is!!!!!!
