One....fantastic video!! Two, It's a grey horse to whoever said it was white. Three, I see the horse's problem as a training issues and the horse like many probably knows when the rider won't correct them...a.k.a. the show ring. The warm-up ring was completely different. Which is why the horse was better. Once corrected, I think the horse would have been honest for the remaining class. IMO.
Not the best rider on that white horse having trouble, I could tell by her stiffness and her hands she was really mad and her horse was feeding off it. And for a guick second she softened up and so did her horse but then he did it again and she got mad again.
@Mustangify100 I see where you're coming from, but I'm afraid I'd have to disagree with you. Admittedly her hands are stiff and she's showing tension (and no doubt Ladina B did feed off of that), but we saw a video of her in the warm up arena before she came in to do her first round, and Ladina B was absolutely fine, totally relaxed and happy. Ellen appeared to be riding her exactly the same way in the warm up arena as she was in the ring.
@Mustangify100 I never said that you didn't know what you were talking about? I'm not denying that good riders make mistakes either. I've seen it plenty of times too. But what I'm saying is, for a horse who is fine everywhere except in the ring, it might show that she doesn't like the atmosphere. We'll never know for sure anyway, it's just speculation. Without knowing the horse and rider personally, I don't see how any of us can make judgments about them.
@Mustangify100 I'd say it's far more likely that Ladina B was picking up off of the atmosphere in the ring and it was making her nervous. If Ellen had felt her tense up beforehand, that could have been the reason why she stiffened her hands in anticipation. But you could be right- I know my sensitive share pony feeds off even the slightest tension in my hands. x
@Mustangify100 In all fairness you say you know what your talking about yet you called Ladina B a white horse (yeah it's called grey) and didn't even know who the rider was at first.........it's Ellen Whitaker, how can you not know? o.O
@LittleRedx3 Haha yeah I totally agree! I watched them again on Friday night at Olympia and Ladina B was rearing two strides out from the triple bar, and then she jumped it about a foot bigger than it actually was!! Such a little show off that horse :') x
I know right! That was Robert Whitaker...I'm not surprised the horse refused the next time around! If the horse had a soft mouth before...it definitely doesn't now!!!
And yeahh she was incredible...really sympathetic towards Ladina B...I never realized what a good rider she was.x
Yeah I think you're probably right! She rode both horses brilliantly...I never realized she was such a sympathetic rider! There's one point where Ladina B was bucking and she patted her to reassure her...
merci beaucoup pour le montage, je suis super contente de voir Johnny Boy en si bonne forme, et je pense que Jean- Marie martin le cavalier habituel est moins stressé (tu vois JM il est fort ton JB)
Yeah it is! And I LOVE the atmosphere! The horses are so beautiful and talented...incredible. Also the riders are wonderful. I don't think i've ever seen Ellen Whitaker ride so well, she's really improved over this last year.
hey, do you have raws of this for people to use?? :D
