The Coblet Points his toes At Keysoe's U25 High Profile

[HunTheBun]

I'm shamelessly trying to up my view count on YouTube. If you have a spare couple of minutes please have a peek at my latest video. Any comments welcome...but I can't promise they'll be taken on board

We came fourth in the restricted section of Elementary 57. It was our first show in a double bridle - only had it just over a week and I've only every used one once before so it was a big step up for us. Very pleased with Mr. Coblet's attitude and the way the test went, apart from the walk but that's never going to set the world alight!

[HunTheBun]

Thank you for your lovely comments - he means the world to me!

I'm small I'm a wee bit over 5ft.

He's 14.1hh...but hes an odd shape... Full size bridle, XW saddle, XL over-reachboots, trimmed pony-size bandage pads cause they were too big!

all i could watch was his tail, so long and flowing. lovely boy!

 

[BeanyG]

just lovely
N&F

 

[HollyWoozle]

Well that's lovely! I don't know much about dressage but you and that handsome cob are a pleasure to watch. I seem to see a lot of horses these days with their heads hauled underneath them and it's nice to see your lovely contact with horse moving so nicely.

 

[Mongoose11]

Looks beaut. Wish I had known, I would have popped down, I stable about five miles from Keysoe!

 

[Bubbles]

He is super!! Loved the handbrake going on in the final halt what % did you get?

Me too!! Beautiful!!! It was only the second time around i did make myself watch the actual content too and thought it was a lovely sight!!

 

[Cortez]

What a lovely, willing, forward chap. Well done; cobs rule! (well ridden ones do, at any rate....).

Thank you very, very much - I'm very much for letting the horse pop his nose in when the time is right. I'm not very competitive so treat every show more as a schooling session.

What a shame! I'll bear that in mind

Haha thanks - we got carried away! And 63.something% - his walk is really quite awful He gets too excited about the next movement and gets a bit bouncy!

Thanks - just be grateful you don't have to wash it!

 

[Perfect_Pirouette]

You ride him absolutely briliantly, you should be incredibly proud of yourself. I gave up with my old cob once we were schooling Ele/Medium at home as I thought we wouldn't be able to compete with all the flashy WBs. Bitterly regret it now as you and I (at the time) had something that a lot of people don't- fantastic rhythmic and balanced paces.

I wish you all the best for the future with him. x

 

[FfionWinnie]

I want him and I want to ride like you. What a cracking pair you are!

 

[Holly Hocks]

Fab -I wish I could ride as well as you do!

 

[Sunshine]

Loved it, what a fabulous cobcob! He moves nicely, relaxed with a good rhythm and looks so settled and happy in his work - and you ride him superbly.

I'd love one like that for me but I'd baulk at the work needed to keep him so clean ;-)

 

[ester]

still love him

I'm off to tell Frank what his reinback should look like

 

[Tiarella]

Love love love him like someone said earlier quite a lot of cobs/native types do so well because of their rhythm and balance unlike the bouncy gangly warmbloods this has made me want to progress with my boy so much more now

 

[coffeeandabagel]

I really enjoyed that. You and him seem perfect together. Wish I could do a sitting trot like that.

 

[Bills]

Wow he is just ace!! Well done on your score too

 

[Kallibear]

I feel inspired to go and do some dressage with my coblet everything I watch you video! : D Love your little man.

I have an identikit (but brown and white) replacement for you when you boy retires.....

 

[Lolo]

Al's subbed you on youtube now- think you do our area events, as you were definitely at the PC area dressage last summer in all that mud! We admired from afar then, he's gorgeous

(she's somethingsup55/ Alice Graham if you wouldn't mind subbing back?)

 

[olop]

You both look fabulous very well done, love seeing the coblets strutting there stuff

 

[HunTheBun]

Thanks once again guys - nice to know I'm doing something right!

Gosh that was an awful day! The mud was ridiculous! I thought my medium trot was going to slide right out of the arena

Subbed back btw

 

[OldNag]

Fabulous stuff. What a great partnership you are.

(Have you posted this on the "Why do some people want to own cobs" thread?

 

[Rachellouise1]

Loved the test, harmony and relaxation!!! Very good riding, keep it going xxx

 

[Tilda]

Gorgeous horse, beautifully ridden and he goes so nicely you make it all look so easy and I know it most definitely isn't! Well done on your percentage I did my one and only competitive dressage test at Keysoe never again lol!

 

[AbFab]

Doing it for the cobs! And doing it damn well! Loved watching that. I'm living for the day when my mini cob gets that kind of jump to her paces
