Perfect Horse Video

[personal profile] green_knight just gave us a fabulous dog-dressage video. Here's a perfect horse one:

It is an amazing ride but the mare is wringing her tail at almost every step in some places. Is she nervous or is she picking up her rider's nerves? Or is it something else? I always thought that tail wringing was a fault in dressage- though this is strictly speaking not a classical dressage test. Regardless, it's an amazing ride and it makes me miss dressage like crazy. Not that I ever rode any where near this well!

I don't think she's nervous. She couldn't turn in a performance like that - neither of them could - whilst suffering from nerves to that extent. I think she's just full of beans.

I have to agree with you- it's hard to put in that kind of perfect performance when anxious about stuff. I just wonder, though... Whatever, it's an amazing video and the first three times I saw it it made me cry. Plus, I love grey horses...
