Omg whats wrong with people....

pole work could mean walked over a pole in the ground and jumping couod be less than a foot to see how horse reacts.

having a bridle on at two i have no issues with neither with having a small child on its back, not really anything there that will damage the wee horse IMO.

It just depends the context you wish to take the advert in as to whether it is terrible or not ;) :D
 
she's not 2 yet, it says rising 2! walking over poles on the floor I dont have an issue with but jumping any height at that age is not good for the horse and not necessary, whats the rush?? Not all the horses plates will have set, I wouldnt be buying a horse that has done that much all before the age of 2.
 
it says "good attitude towards jumping" which could mean that the pole work is going very well and she is progressing towards jumping, not that she hasn't jumped yet!

Tbh I think you've read the advert wrong. Unfortunately people these days will really say anything to get a horse sold, they may think that because the horse has walked over some poles on the ground and had a few young kids at on its back then it is highly desirable and will show that the horse is going to be easy to train and bombproof.

Are racehorses not being ridden by this age and belted round gallop tracks???
 
Money, money, money - that's why people hurry them all so much. Totally wrong in my view, and glad to say that I don't have to make money out of horses.
 
So sad. Too much to soon basically its a yearlong that apparently will be a great kids pony. Can imagine what numpty will buy it
 
yes racehorses are and I dont agree with that either but thats a whole other story isnt it! Just do not see the point in selling a rising 2 year old in this way?? Purely is the money factor but to me its off putting to read all this about such a young horse. People have no patience anymore.
