Everytime I listen to you Barry I hear a lifetime of expertise and wisdom, not to to mention the sheer delight of being virtually on board.

Thank you, Baz and Rhi! For another great video full of great information for all of us to learn from. Wishing you all at HDP a safe weekend full of good weather for driving!! Your friend, the Retired Paramedic and Horse Trainer in Ontario, Canada, Jenn 💖 🇨🇦

Beautiful scenery and great transfer of knowledge. I grew up a mile from the Bonnie Lee Morgan Farm. The family, Bonham's, were founders in the Morgan Horse Registry over a hundred years ago. I never got to spend enough time there. Your great number of miles over various terrains and great arena work was something they would do except for all the lovely hedges and thatched roofs. Thanks for the drive down memory lane.

It’s always a pleasure to watch your work X

Nothing is as dangerous as frightened ponies. Preparing for all situations makes for safe and secure driving

Love the little cob at the front..that lorry seemed to rev up a lot going by.

[@bevattiyat6217]

I like the little white one in the front. Head down face forward, and off we go. Doing the job 😅😅

She is a brilliant horse, just very inexperienced

[@bevattiyat6217]

@@mrtweak8653meh. The experience will come, in time.

I've had the thought (if the conveyance already doesn't have them) that some rear view mirrors would be useful, so you could see what's coming up from behind perhaps? 7:17

Permission to gallop is good. An expression of health, liveliness and joy. They love it. But on asphalt I just allowed it up to 600m. When does the horse show itself at its best? In play and in gallop.

I was sad when you lost Roley. Some are just something special. Never for gotten.

[@erika7674]

What happened at the end?!

[@phubblewubbphubblewubb]

An old horseman told me in the 70's....to cure a bolter, ride or drive it at speed until it's begging to stop.

[@Timberns]

Lots of old horsemen were very wrong in their understanding of the horse.

[@Mitmacher]

A very experienced coachman, Andreas Nehmitz, said that the worst experiences for him were when horses bolted without him seeing any reason. I wrote to him that the horses that survive best in the wild are those who are awake and train a lot to escape, i.e. at top speed. If there is no reason for this and you don't give them the opportunity, they see and suddenly start running.

[@Mitmacher]

I did not understand everything. But not letting the hoof wall get too hard could help. Thanks. It is too soft if it is wavy on the outside and you can press it in at the bottom with your fingernail. is my experience. Horses have very different hooves. They carry 66% of their weight at the front, You could perhaps use horseshoes or hoof shoes made of plastic with hard metal spikes. Some say that hooves should slide a few cm with every step. Can be. I don`t know.
