Video of Becky and Sudi at Coombe Park- sorry it has been so long coming!!

[Heather]

Here is a clip of Beck and Sudi at their first ever demo away from home. He is far more established now than there, in May, and will try to get some more video when I am back from Scotland/Cheshire, and update it. That's Max on Jo in the last couple of frames, btw!

[Heather]

hehehehehe!!  Yes she DOES!!  I would be knackered 

[pebblesgirl]

aww that brought tears to my eyes..... :'( in a good way obviously 
he looks so relaxed,considering its his first time away etc,look at his lovely floppy ears, really concentrating.
and well done Becky too, you must be very very fit 

[Heather]

Sudi has made up a great deal since that was taken, and is more relaxed too. He is getting confident enough even to argue if he is asked to do something different! Its like 'Excuse me, we do it THIS way'!!

Wonderful video!!!! :  I just have to wait I have a brake at work to see it all!

[Baymair]

Wow, beautiful and inspiring! I'm really looking forward to the next couple of days on Becky's course  Not sure I'll be able to keep up with her though!

It's pretty impressive that it was his first demo too.

Those long reins are good - are they a bit shorter? Better than having yards of rope in the hands.

[Julea]

Wow , certainly something to aspire to ! Very nice

[Heather]

He is much better than that now- the passage is really established, the piaffe much more so, and he is now doing travers/half pass in long reins too.

Those are the Portuguese classical long reins- you can buy them from Maria, and Damian at Equigear is doing them also- pm him, he is equigear here too.

fantastic- well done all 

[margarita]

Looks great.....Love to see him doing all this in ridden work.......have you any footage

[Wendy]

Ahh what a sweetheart he is. 

Lovely vid, thanks Heather.

[Heather]

He is only just back under saddle Margarita, but I had taught him all the lateral work before we took him back to just work in long reins, to try to gain his confidence. He has already given me passage under saddle- it is huge!

When he is back in full work under saddle, will post some more clips- with me dashing off so much atm, it has been better to just continue the work in hand and long reins, until we can give him more continuity which he needs.

What a good boy for his first demo - he isn't much fazed by much even when the audience clap, and has his ear pinned on Becky!

He looks fab and well done for Becky keeping up with him - and she doesn't even break pace!
