Amber and Legolas: The Perfect Stretch
Good morning this is Will Faerber from Art2Ride and I am here with Amber, our associate trainer. Amber moved down here to join us about a month ago. This is a horse that I discovered at a clinic and Amber was fortunate enough to buy it.
He is five years old and is beautifully stretching into the contact. Look at how consistently this horse is floating over the ground. Amber will now bring him up and show us his working trot. This horse started out a little broken in the neck, but she has gotten him through now. Notice how there was no change in his gate during the transition. The only thing that changed was his neck coming into a different position. Also notice how the horse’s neck went out and down when going back into the stretch. When we first started with him, he would break and roll down like he was going to put his nose between his knees. We can see now that he is clearly through the back and is able to maintain the same rhythm. What a beautiful stride!
Once again this is Will Faerber from Art2Ride here with my associate trainer Amber, who you will be seeing more of in the future!
