Badminton Horse Trials 2016 - Cross Country

Badminton Horse Trials 2016 Cross Country Action From Saturday

[@Alistair.Althea]

The riders did amazing! That yelpy yap yap dog in the background though.....

[@taylorkenzie6361]

Another frickin dog barking! People, do NOT bring your dog to a horse show! It distracts the horses and the Riders.

[@deba2405]

Well said,just said that to my husband!!!

[@NicoleHawkforest]

Why do people let their dogs keep barking!! It's distracting when your trying to enjoy cross country

[@amberbemelmans4281]

Dogs bark live with it

[@taroseren]

Amber Bemelmans yeah dogs bark but people could choose to not bring them for the safety of the horses and riders 🙄 it’s just selfish tbh and ur selfish for saying that leave them at home it’s not that hard horses get scared live with it

[@anniedeklerk8858]

love the power of these stunning horses, you can even hear it in the thudding of their hooves. also, please DON'T take your dogs to X-country or horse shows in general.

[@catherinemceachern1164]

Great video, I love cross country.

[@noscopenohope3880]

May I use these clips in a music video im editing? Ill give credit in description.

[@susanbilodeau7793]

The reason horses fall so many times in the deeper water, is because they never fill in the holes where they land, year after year, so there are holes made by other horses. They should maintain these places, and pack new clay and small gravel there.

[@urscraniseregh8605]

Yes they do. It’s all marked out at a maximum of 8 inches. All the time

[@missskyline340]

very nice video!

[@ckaey]

+Miss Skyline Thankyou ☺

[@texaspoontapper2508]

These courses seem absolutely massive

[@RoguePhoenix6]

Thank you for the video. Question, did Zara get disqualified for that jump or what since it seemed like it was in question.? Thanks

[@ckaey]

+RoguePhoenix6 Thankyou :) No she didnt get Disqualified

[@michaelborch2432]

How do the riders still have knee caps left after this? Is it just the way I'm seeing it or do they put a lot stress on their joints?

[@breannakeel2274]

Just a question for all the equestrians out there,is counting the strides for galloping the same as counting them for cantering? Do you have to start counting earlier with gallop?

[@ptbracing6578]

breanna keel well obviously the stride numbers are different as in 3 for canter and 4 for gallops but mainly the same gallops is a bit harder to feel as you are up of the horses back and they tend to "float" more in gallop

[@tendaimakamure4988]

Yes it's the same you start counting when you feel the horse take the first step

[@HawkinaBox]

I wish I could do that with my horse. But he can't go over that many jumps due to Arthritis , but he would do EXTREMELY well running for a long time if I got him back into shape.

[@heathersweeney3628]

Great riders, annoying yapping dog tho

[@carolinegray6326]

would you mind if I used these clips for a video edit for instagram?

[@ckaey]

+Caroline Gray aslong as you credit me that will be fine

+AdamBlakePhotography of course, thank you!

[@sofiakonta6340]

does somebody know what are the most used breeds of horses for cross country? ??

[@ptbracing6578]

Sofia Konta thoroughbred X Irish sport/Irish draught I think as the tb brings the speed and long stride and the ish/id includes good nature tolerance and hardiness also a little bit of Connemara for the jumping aspect

[@Nightraven-gg6nm]

Anything with a high percentage of thoroughbred blood. It used to be almost all thoroughbreds, then people started adding in warmbloods because they’re good on the flat, but then they couldn’t hold up to cross country. I think the ideal cross sought after now a days is a ‘three quarter bred’ meaning 3/4 thoroughbred and usually warmblood/sporthorse for the other 1/4.

[@urscraniseregh8605]

Thoroughbred. Irish sports horse. Warmblood

[@marcosirtori3863]

[@rinkanator]

That rider at 6:30 deffo got inside the flag

[@riteasrain]

That ditch jump should be banned, it's over-the-top and dangerous. A few close calls of broken legs there. Not at all pleasant to watch a horse nearly go lame.

[@jumping_the_highland2774]

I agree it does scare me

[@urscraniseregh8605]

riteasrain what a stupid thing to say. It has to push horses to work hard It’s very rare that a horse actually hurts itseld

[@cosmiccosplay1962]

Where is the badminton horse trials???

[@ffionlewis9781]

[@urscraniseregh8605]

Albania

[@e.o752]

I have no idea how they stay balanced

[@charlotte1100]

it’s easy

[@karlijnbellemans8964]

practising

[@justsimplyliviehere1307]

Wow those horses are sweaty I hope they washed them real good to get all the nasty sweat off and that dog is so annoying

[@ptbracing6578]

star stable with alivia the white stuff on the legs is eventing oil/grease It is used so the horse slides over fences instead of getting stuck and the horses are treated like royalty

[@freyachantal4571]

The horses are literally treated like royalty! I go every year and you wouldn’t believe how they treat them!
