It's OK Lisa, nothing nasty If this was done kindly then it's great and looks like it would be fantastic fun although I wouldn't be supple enough to even try these days! |

Oh my!! Fab stuff. I remember seeing him at HOYS too. I love the bit where they're cantering through the water. What kind of child am I, still in the story-book stuff...? Thank you Lynda! |

The horses look very relaxed around him....i think it looks like he has a great relationship with them. |

I reckon it's done kindly. The horses appear to be very relaxed (as akitamon said), and they look very willing to comply (without a forced 'outline', etc.). The horses are also showing natural behaviour within a herd!!!
I have also seen him and his horses at HOYS, and watching his 'act' made a very refreshing change as opposed to seeing some of the distressed and unhappy performances from some of the competition horses. JMO!!!

I thought WOW and also winced a bit. So guessed mixed feelings here too. All the horses look happy enough. Hated all that blasting down the beaches. I know too many horses that have put one foot in a soft bit of sand and twanged something or fallen over even. Just my opinion though. |

Amazing, I think I am inclined to believe that the horses are enjoying the experience, they do not appear frightened of him, and listen to all his verbal commands. They are clearly very trusting of him. Therefore, I think these horses have been fairly trained, are clearly loved and certainly do not show any obvious signs of stress, I see he has been given an Arabian Horse by Princess Alia, and he is hoping to have this horse performing next year in Jordan. Watch this space!!! Nicky |

Well if she gave him a horse he MUST be kind, she would NEVER give a horse to someone with cruel methods of training, this I know ! so I also look forwards to that show ! |

I just think it's amazing that the horses speak more french than I do. |
