Wow! I have seen just a smidgen of this kind of display (videos) before, but watching this whole performance...well, I was surprised it brought a tear to my eye. Wasn't expecting that. Wow! :)
This is a very talented and athletic horse. The closest thing I ever had to this experience was riding my half Arab mare...when she was not happy, she would literally canter in place and then do it sideways in one direction or another. I am always in awe of these animals.
That depends, Boud. Depends a lot on the trainer/rider. This horse is relaxed, so I would say it likes its job. I had a horse working Grand Prix who was a talent and a firebrand. He found his place in upper level dressage. all disciplines can be good or not good. It depends on the people involved.
My upper level Arabian gelding could canter backwards. We found that out when he decided he didn’t like whatever the trainer was doing and back he went, a a canter!! Opinionated, Val. Sandra

Beautiful. I remember when I first saw dressage, I thought how beautiful it was.

This was me, Sandra. I’m on my phone.
A well trained horse with the talent and the right person is a beautiful thing to behold, Rita. Sandra

When the horse is relaxed like this one is it is a real thing of beauty, Pixie. Sandra
