We also
included some trot footage from a bright sunny day that shows Spencer's
beautiful coat. This is not, however, the best example of
his movement because of the hard unforgiving footing. Many
ponies actually moved lame on this surface; Spencer just moved less
brilliantly.
Finally, video of Spencer "free jumping"
was added in late
January 2003. Spencer had never trotted over a pole or been free- lunged prior to this day. As you'll see, Spencer's
instincts are correct. The footage
shows that he starts to figure out how to be snappy in front, punch
his body up, and hold himself off the jumps to have time off the
ground. Quite good for a one-day crash course. |
