Today's dressage

For the novelty of it, I will disagree with Judy Harvey - Alf's piaffe was nowhere near as good as Uthopia's or Rubi's.

But a fun comparison with a Rolls Royce: big, expensive, difficult to steer. ;-)

I was going to pull her up on that and say I thought Rubi's was better, but I fear I sound like a broken record atm!


OK I have to pull her up on this though :eek:

"This horse really is on a trampoline".

Er, no, love, he really isn't

Imagine what a horse on a trampoline would be like though...

...I'm imagining a very big vet bill!!!!
 
Did she fluff the changes? I only caught the last bit but they didn't look too good to my (uneducated) eye. I did like his piaffe
 
Danish horse, nice passage, mediocre piaffe, decent two times, nothing to write home about imo, little BTV at times and seems quite forced...
 
true, it was the commentator I objected to - the judging at this level is very fair, even if I don't agree with their priorities or decisions!

Sorry, I wasn't having a go at you, should have added something along the lines of "but whether they will notice/do anything....."
 
I love Donnperignon (almost as much as his very, very handsome former owner/rider, Christoph Koschel).

Sad to see that perpetually open mouth in an otherwise quite nice ride.

OOh, and there was the Danish queen, too!

it's ok, I thought a slightly barbed comment might be justified towards me there, whether you meant it or not! :D
