Holy crap, wow things have changed soooooooo much

It's interesting to see haw much more natural the jumps look compared to the jumps today...

Those fences look to be about 5 foot. I think that this shows how training has evolved in 30 years. Amazing that these horses went X-C the day before and still have this energy. Must be the TB.

Long live the thoroughbred!! One of the best breeds out there

these horses are 'fighting with their heads' for a reason... absolutely bonkers course thoughh

[CHEVYedsf]

@TheHickstead Seems like they ride faster as well.

It's interesting to see how the horse "type" has changed so much in show jumping from more Thoroughbred-types to big warmbloods.
