    Matt: "tell me he doesn't look like a hunter jumper????"
    Jesse:"... I've never seen one"
    Matt: "oh, well they look like this" 🤣

      Probably why Jesse doesn’t say much even tho he has the experience, as even Matt says (yet then doesn’t listen to any suggestions).
      Btw the rider has to commit to each jump as any horse has to do.

    Fun to see the horse gain confidence and can sense that he starts to feel good about himself as he progresses in this lesson. Such a willing and trusting soul in this horse! He wants to work for Matt. Its nice to see him with someone who will take care of his emotional needs and not just get performance out of him. He is a lovely horse....all are actually

  • @pacificgrace12
    @pacificgrace12 ปีที่แล้ว +78

    Coming from a hunter jumper- he looked so great!!! He picked everything up so quickly and was super willing. The trust he has in you is crystal clear. Maybe something you should continue to dabble in sometime in the future! His knees looked great at the end ☺️

    • @addie_eq_rideformilly
      @addie_eq_rideformilly ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yeah! Watching this I def wasn’t expecting him to do great Tbh since, hunters have a low headset and minimal knee movement as well as a reaching with their stride. But he was actually pretty good!!

    This is so nice to watch, Etro clearly enjoys it once he gets used to the idea of it! You were totally right about him lifting his legs more with higher jumps. It seems the dressage helps him sometimes too, since you can control the length of his stride so accurately.

    Etro is truly gorgeous (Matt and Jesse, all your horses are very beautiful!) 😍 He is a "compact" horse, I don't think he's big or fat but rather well muscled 🔥 Sometimes you change the activity of your horses just for fun and I think it's good for them.
    For a first try, it's a success! Etro assesses the situation (which is unusual for him) and passes the pole or cavaletti successfully.
    Well done Matt and Etro! 👏 I look forward to another jumping session. Thank you for a very pleasant video.
    Love to you both! 😃💖

      I had a try at eventing with my ex racehorse which didn’t work out too well. I’ve currently been doing dressage with him and we are slowly getting back into jumping. I would love to do hunters worth him since he has such nice gaits and does well on the flat in the under saddle classes

    • @tareyread1842
      @tareyread1842 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      With my first of many OTTBs, I put a hackamore on so there was none of the confusion about 'pull harder means go faster' so common in retraining racehorses. I didn't spend any time in an arena, and only a few days in the pasture to ensure we agreed on stop, go, left, right, and she quickly understood that life was going to be different and interesting and always fun. John Lyons said, your horse should be more relaxed after a session than before; I added, they should have fun every session. Over the next dozen years we did about everything: pulled an antique carriage to give guests rides for Grandad's 90th birthday party, herded cattle, laughed ourselves silly having bareback swimming races, hunted deer and elk in Idaho Wilderness areas, carried packsaddles, scouted Brittany field trial training and competitions, and saw millions of square miles of the most beautiful land on earth while endurance riding over 800 sanctioned completion miles. We even rode a dressage test. Misty learned each skill quickly and happily, lived outside with buddies in a 30 acre pasture of hills, forest and pond, and never had an ulcer. She, we, had fun. Every single session.

    Not a trainer, but I think doing this every once in a while, this would be great for him to do. I've had trainers that have said, "Do something different today, give his brain a break from this, and expand his experiences." It can do wonders for a horse's mental health, and physical health. He did great. :)

    Low jumping is great for dressage horses. In Germany they free jump their dressage horses regularly, once every week or two, they don't jump them themselves because they are dressage riders and don't want to jump haha. In Reiner Klimke's book "Basic Training Of The Young Horse" he talks about the importance of sending them over fences for fitness and strengthening. It is also good for their minds and to really connect them with their foot placement. Well done!

    • @ladydiane1811

Matt - whatever you're feeding him - keep doing it! His shine is crazy beautiful. Funny to see your 'back' is still riding in Dressage style - rounded spine & leaning backwards! 😁 In Hunter/Jumper style (it used to be called Forward Seat Equitation or riding 'Hunt Seat' ) - your back is hyper flexed, shoulders back, heels waaaay down & lower spine is convex. For Etro's 1st time .... 👍👏👏👏 PS: hi to Jesse too! Love your commentary. 😘

    I love how instead of “jumping” over them he’s more throwing his legs out and over it 😂😂😂 he’s such a cutie ☺️

    I know some jumping PREs and there was a famous Lusitano called Novilheiro who jumped super successfully internationally with John Whittaker!

    Of course Pre can make a gracefully athlectic Jumper. One thing, particularally if a stallion, youll have to raise the heighth of your fences if want to keep inside a pasture.

    Don't know what it's called in english but I call it trotting boom. It looked as he found it easier, stride wise, to have a trotting boom before the actual jump. But you should make your own hurdles or buy some to see if he jumps them. If he jumps a stock hurdle or a fence. But that's probably for when he has jumped a couple of times. Real good job! I love the way you praise him 🥰

    We call it “working hunter” in the U.K. We also have Show hunter, no jumping involved.

    My (long ago) experience is that horses only ever ridden in an arena are a bit clumsy-footed on bush trails and over obstacles. They have to learn to pay attention to the ground and adjust. 🇦🇺

    I agree with Jesse …. No bit is best but if you have the perfect bit …. you do not NEED a pesky flash. Horses really don’t like having their mouths tied. It is not comfortable. Just think if it were your mouth. Especially if the bit is not perfect. You are into creating a partnership with your horses not controlling them no matter what !

    PREs aren't bred for jumping but they can do it quiet good if you train them. Aso some jumps is a great way to add new elements to the training and gymnastic exercises for your horse.
