Cool

I don't really get the horse events. Obviously they have to be fairly fit, but the horse is doing basically everything. Is it about the training?

[@stephaniefrances7447]

specialpatrolgroup92 basically the rider has to tell the horse what to do. Like to lengthen or shorten a stride. It is very difficult to ride a horse as well. To stay in the saddle and fight inertia is also very difficult. The horse and rider do equal amounts of work. To the untrained eye it just seems like the horse is doing the work

[@specialpatrolgroup92]

@@stephaniefrances7447 well thank you for replying, because I really was a bit mystified :)

[@skyequestrian]

As someone else said, the rider is guiding the horse every step of the way. Yes, the horses are highly trained and extremely well bred, but it's still the rider's job to set them up to each jump, balance, correct, and guide them. It takes YEARS of training for both horse and rider.

why is she screaming? 1:34

Apparently it's to encourage the horse to get up in the air a bit more
