Puissance WIHS - Horse jumps 7 foot wall!

2009. McLain Ward and Vancouver take top honors in Friday night's Puissance class. Honestly, I was cheering for Darragh Kenny of Ireland and the terrific Gael Force. I was also hoping that the Sweet N Low's 1983 record of 7'7 1/2" would be broken, but no such luck. Still, it was awesome to see in person! Also, viewers please note that this class was McLain's FIRST TIME personally showing winning mount Vancouver. Impressive!

@Horseloversrox When a horse is collected, it's head it brought back under to it is vertical to the ground, or close to. This forces the horse to use it's back end as its powerhouse, instead of it using it's not-as-powerful front legs. For jumpers, horses are allowed to raise their heads right before they jump, because if they don't they don't get a proper look at the jump and most often wont jump it.

what does collect the horse mean?
