OMG they made it look soo easy (which I know it isnt lol). It just seemed like the horse was automatically doing it all & the rider was just sitting enjoying it, they both must have an amazing bond together to make it look this easy. Brilliant!
knhorsegirl - I have the on my DVD and yes he is really dark bay, but it was night time here and no sun, he always looks black during indoor or night time compeitions.
For those who say this 'was not an honest win' or Anky is 'cruel to her horse' that horses ears were forward throughout that entire performance. As A strong dressage enthusiast i feel that this performance was perfect. i do not find it an unfair win, she stuck to the guidelines of the competition, didn't she? well there then. I've made my point, as for Andreas, Brilliant mare, and good bond between the two! but i also think anky has this with Salinero. Well done for both of them!
This is a really nice freestyle performance, but since Anky is so dedicated to hyperflexiontraining I can't really give her this. It's not an honest way of training your horse. I thought Andreas should have won, he rode a 9 year old mare that hasn't been hyperflexed and that has less physichal benefits for dressage than Salinero who's got far better gates and physique than Andreas mare. To me, Andreas and Matiné won this one.
This is just so perfectly gorgeous. I mean how perfect is this ride!?!?

Wow, this is just insane! I prefer Salinaro's performance to Matine's. It just feels more professional.

No, she just gets all up in their faces...
