Cross Breeds

What do you think of my horse (pictures and video)?

Here are some photos and videos of my new horse. I've only had her for a couple months, so we're not doing too much yet. She has been shown at 1 meter jumpers. When I got her, I started working with her on dressage and the photos are from her first dressage show (training level). Next year we are going to show at first level and do some jumper classes. Please let me know what you think of her movement/confirmation/etc. -8 years old -15.3hh -Irish Sport Horse/TB cross Also- I know she is a little underweight- she is on a weight gain plan.

  1. GORGEOUS!!! Beautiful long strides...She will go VERY far in dressage. She looks much bigger that her 15.3 hands! Good luck in your future showing...you're sure to go far with that mare!!
  2. She's gorgeous! And you're a very pretty rider. Her movement seems good. Her conformation is gorgeous! She's a beautiful horse with beautiful marks and colorings. I hope you enjoy her! :)
  3. Just by watching you ride her in the videos i honestly didn't see anything wrong with her.... I think she has great movement. Her conformation is gorgeous! She seems well-trained and she is young so you and your mare will get even better... I always think that there is still things to learn. I think she will do great in the jumper classes as well as the dressage. Just a lot of practice!! Good luck!!!!!
  4. She looks lovely and comfortable with a nice calm but alert outlook on life. I cannot tell you how lovely it is to see a nice horse going without any gadgetry on its head, or in its mouth. She is a credit to you. Keep up the good work. Gymnastic jumping will help her to collect a bit more, but she is a very long backed horse so you will never get her completely compact.
