Isn't the worst Rollkur i've see her produce. But still her training methods are cruel and un called forin my opinion.

[jennrummy]

Yes - Rollkur for Anky! She needs to be tortured the same way she tortures her horses! And the judges who reward her need to get an education and grow some balls and shack up the corrupt European system!!

[BetzkiNilzki]

well, as far as i can see its not anky that makes the horse drop his head here. but because of that she trains rollkur the horse has not gotten the right musscles to do what she wants it to do here. you can see that she holds the horse very very hard in the mouth and forces it to do it. you can see that the horses neck has a lack of musscles. so, as far as i can see the horse drops his head to get away fron that terribly sharp thing in its mouth. (i don´t know what its called in english)

Steckenpferd schwingt nicht über den Rücken und flüchtet hinter die Senkrechte.

Ich finde, was das Aufrollen betrifft nimmt sich Anky sehr zurück auf Tunieren. Da sieht man das kaum noch. Das heißt jedoch nicht, dass sie ihre Ansicht zu Trainingsmethoden geändert hat!!! Das Pferd zeigt in dieser kurzen Sequenz wenig bis gar keine Hankenbeugung. Ich finde, Hankenbeugung ist allerwichtigstes Indiz für eine Pferdegerechte Ausbildung, die allerdings kaum ein Pferd aufweist, welches sie reitet... Was man ihr lassen muss, ist ihre ausgesprochen gute Musikwahl! Trotzdem: Stop it!

i feel bad for any horse this bitch rides.

@littletrine es geht generell über ihre Trainingsmethoden und nicht nur über den einen Ritt

[littletrine]

@Flicka090 öööhm. weißt du überhaupt was rollkur ist?

das pferd ist meistens vor der senkrechten und nur ein einziges mal rollt es sich für noch nicht mal eine sekunde ein weil es stolpert. also bitte..

@XLiseuh just so you are aware all the hyperflexion happens behind the scenes not in front of a judge. This video shows that she has used hyperflexion on this horse in the warm-up ring. Its not trying to say that she used the rolkur method in the ring, it is explaining that rolkur is the cause. It isn't just that she lost her balance when the horse "came too deep". the horse lost its footing due to the method of training which inhibits the horse from seeing correctly in front of it.

[Flicka090]

Das arme Pferd!!! Kann Anky eigendlich noch was anderes außer Rollkur?!

[XLiseuh]

WTF is wrong with this video! The horse comes too deep for like 1 sec! You she that Anky is out of balance when the horse did that so she didn't ask that...!
