There is a lot of 'anthropomorphism' going on here.... and unfortunately the horse is, like most of the actual top dressage horses, ridden with his poll to low and the nose behind the vertical line.
In the stretching down the neck stays 'curled up', again, with the nose clearly behind the vertical line and there is no real stretching or lengthening of the neck...

This is all well and good, but if you watch a lot of these 'top' horses they seem incapable of ever having their poll as the highest point and their nose in front of the vertical.
To me the neck is not being stretched forward and they very much STAY in the same frame ALL the time ......and tests show that this type of 'stretching' only relaxes the front part of the back and not the rear part !

I just like the way he presents his horse, you can tell that these two had fun together and he accepted who this horse is and worked around it , not trying to brake him or enslave him .... I like this series a lot . thank you for posting
