[QUOTE="MillIronQH, post: 279835, member: 4658"] Once again I'm reminded of how totally inadequate I am. This is cowboy dressage carried to the umpteenth level. It looks like a Grand Prix dressage pattern +++++. Do you know if this is Spanish or Portugese? Last winter the horses and riders from the Spanish Riding School in Vienna came to the states for the first time in 40 years. One of their stops was Houston. Something about the 70-75th ?aniversary of Ike saving the horses in Spain and getting them to Austria where they still are today. Ther are two or three groups of Lippizaners in the states that tour around but until you see the real thing you ain't seen nuthin'. Dressage means training and the original tests were a exibition of a cavalry rider and his horses skills and abilities. The student/acceptees at the Spanish riding school don't get a saddle for the first year and don't get their spurs for five.Z [/QUOTE]
