It's awesome to see a "grand prix" of sorts for the hunters. All too often, the hunters seem to come after jumpers and equitation in importance, especially past the junior level. This rider is excellently matched with the horse and took just the right amount of risks in the handy hunter round.
I did not say that it should not be done, just simply personally, as a horse person, it is an annoyance. But, yes I understand that for non-horse people it is beneficial.
I was at this derby- the reason they were doing this is because the crowd was 90% non- horse people, so they wouldn't have truly understood what was going on otherwise. I was such a lovely course.
wow i've never seen a grass hunter course all the ones i've seen have been in sand rings but these jumps are beautiful great riding and what is ur horses name and breed
wow, i have been to naples atleast 10 times and have never seen such a cooll barn. and i wish all jumps were like these ones! (as in the jumps themselves)
I totally agree!,
