  • @jackiibieber I think it's considered a Dapple Grey Horse.

  • what kind of horse is thatt? its really pretty. :)

  • @cartoonnetworklol because when you are in tight place and you cant turn round then you would have to back up.... and sometimes in Dressage the judges ask you to reign back

  • @cartoonnetworklol u do need to back up a horse. In dressage that may be part of your course. And it's not that simple to back up a horse without a little help once in a while.

  • Hey, she looks good to me...nice butt....I would love to go riding with her.

  • Ok, I don't mean to be rude but can ExpertVillage get more professional people to do this? People are starting to watch ExpertVillage for entertainment. There is nothing wrong with that horse or rider but some other videos are pitiful. Good job you in the video!

  • In many different shows some judges ask every on to reign back and half the horses don't even know how so it's the people who have bothered to teach their horses reign back that win!
