Spectacular test. Jung has a better seat, and this horse is more through and correct, than any dressage rider I’ve seen at this level. Textbook “schwung”.

[@lisar9425]

Transition from collected to extended to collected canter gave me goosebumps and a little lump in my throat.

[@lisar9425]

And a correct, old school salute-just drop the hand behind the knee palm forward-instead of the elaborate hand waving now in vogue. Salute is a way of showing lightness and self-carriage, demonstrating that the horse’s obedience and submission aren’t acquired by force.

A beautiful performance! Am I wrong to say I prefer his extended trot to many Grand Prix dressage riders 😳😝 much more active and pushing from the hind end, rather than over fixating on a showy front end

[@lisar9425]

You are NOT wrong. The difference is in the back. Notice how Jung’s horse’s back swings and moves rhythmically. Now compare with London 52.

What a test. What a Horse. What a Rider. Insane. 18!!!! Another level.

No hint of Rollkur here. Horse has never experienced it. Purely beautiful and refreshing.

[@kellytyrrell1253]

Mind readers….such a beautiful partnership ! No argument between horse n rider!

[@cordywitt6400]

I could nearly start crying. Dressage is not boring at all. 😍

[@hazelsmith5628]

His canter is a joy to watch and like flying off the ground !

[@karenjones180]

Horse is happy and willing!

[@bethyoung978]

The physique!

[@elkefaber8873]

Best stretching in the canter 🤩

[@karenjones180]

Also, no double bridle needed for these results!

Lucinda: "There's mum. There's the broodmare." Me: She is no broodmare. She's a Blue Hen!

[@elkefaber8873]

She also mentioned before, that Michael was born with all three skills for eventing.

[@karenjones180]

Better than pure dressage tests. No tension. Just partnership and relaxation. Dressage riders need to take note! More beautiful and natural.

[@elkefaber8873]

Maybe british Fans were not amused that Michael Jung could top their results.

[@christinolivier7362]

Well done 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 👍🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴👍👍♥️💋💋💋💋💋♥️♥️♥️♥️🐴🐴

[@kristinakocila4641]

Why isn't all dressage like this

[@Pstanich]

He moves his hands way too much. No a very elegant performance on his part

[@danielabackstrom]

His hands are super still if you compare to many dressage riders

[@elkefaber8873]

Chipmunk was self carrying not by riders hand as Lucinda said.
