Comment by Jackie Cochran on July 23, 2011 at 10:38am: I sort of got the feeling that Mr. Peters' horse was not as "over-trained" as Anky's horse.

Did you notice that when Mr. Peters went to full collection that the horse offered the old-style croupade kick? It can be hard to rapidly lighten your aids on an "over-trained" horse. I also notice that at the beginning that Mr. Peters successfully asked the horse to raise its head by widening his hands, though I did not notice this as much later in the ride.

Anky did not seem to have problems with the reining horse, though she did an abrupt halt rather than a sliding halt. The horse did not seemed to be bothered by Anky at all.

It sure looked like fun!
