Superb. Beautifully and sensitively ridden. The mare a little too 'fine' but great gaits. The rider is...world class.

Note the smoothness. I was checking the blood lines, and found I know the owner of the dam and have met the owner of the sire.

Makes me long for my horse -

I love this video. Good horses, well ridden. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aO_ODNUFRBU

I have ridden at this ranch - BC Canada. The ranch owners, Ben and Dori Sawatzky, are terrif people. Was offered - to purchase - a fab mare, 'Maria', but would not have done her justice. She went on to make many wins in the show ring. Ben is seen here riding his stallion 'Capital'. The rider at his side is his ranch manager. The rider in the indoor ring (at Ben's ranch) is his Peruvian trainer. (Both are new to the ones I knew when I was visiting over there.) The end of the video shows Ben winning at a PP show - prob the Canadian Nationals. The lass at his side 'might' be his daughter, Chantelle. Oh And the music, is the 'Triumph' music always played for the parade of the winners at the end of each PP show. Oh Happy Days.
