If you could do it all over again, what would you change?
(Preview)
If I could go back in time, regarding my riding, I would have done a lot of research before buying my first horse and I would have found a superb trainer. My first horse was the kindest thing imaginable, but I didn't have the knowledge or the trainer to do him (or me) justice. I can say the same about a number...

Saddle Width?

Hi guys! I'm a little confused about the sizing of saddles and was wondering if someone could explain it. Okay, so when I see a saddle that says "32cm" or "30cm" is that the WIDTH of the saddle, or the LENGTH of the tree? I thought the seat size, like 18' was the length, and the width w...

Richard Davison to use Robbie Williams songs in freestyle!

British dressage star to use Robbie Williams songs! I think this is too funny! I am a slight fan of Robbie Williams, and to see that Mr. Davison will be using his music as re-composed classical pieces in a kur is truly amusing. It reminds me of Ashley Holzer's kur with Pop Art at the Royal (seen here). I lov...
