what is the title of that music?

[SportPonyMagazine]

I can't remember what the title is, but Anky has her keurs written specially for her - two of the others are Bonfire's Symphony and her James Bond Keur. Anybody know what this one is?

[BlueChild86]

that fence is insane!!! did you actually get to see it jumped or is it just a prop?? by the way, anky and crack c, of ocurse were brilliant even with that tiny spook.

[SportPonyMagazine]

The fences were set up for the Atco six-bar, where they try to see who gets the height record over six jumps. Yes we got to see it - they did the six-bar competition right before Anky!

nice little freak out around 2 minutes:P gotta love the flight factor that comes with the spirit of the horse:)

[DressagexGirl]

Wow..this horse is so beautiful! He takes my breath away! Like he's floating, and it looks completely effortless.

lol i love how when he spooks he like is still going to the beat of the music still

[Fien1994]

Nothing bad about Anky. But I think Edward Gal is better (:

[holiday1177]

I think this is an extremely sensitive horse that goes out of his way to please- if you watch closely you will see that she spured him and he was startled and confused. Too strong a rider might explain why in Holland Krack C is the horse that Anky only rides once a year

[stumbledintolove]

did you say this is an AWFUL ride? uhhh...can you do it? thats freakin ANKY! she doesnt have an AWFUL ride. the horse spooked...if you rode...and/or knew horses youd know thats what they do on occassion.

[chrissyluvhorsey]

ahahaha, niceee freakout

[karlijndb1992]

Heel goed hersteld!

[Sky212]

Well shit happens, this was an awfull ride with very very much faults. Everyone gets a bad day from time to time.

[MaTtErOfFaCtEventerz]

In all fareness, the horse is fantastic, but I think totally wound up. I love the playfull ease from Krak C, thats a quality horse.

[Mrligtfoot]

Very smart to keep on going.

Thank god the part where her horse got spooked that she wasnt in a big competition she did great though controlling him
