She’s so spot on with these horses and riders! So many people forget the basics and try to do too much in their training. It’s really not that complicated. The best riders don’t break a sweat!

What a fantastic philosophy, between horse and rider hen knight demands . Really interesting

She is so correct. Some jockeys I've watched their reigns are like washing lines. When I showed jumped unaffiliated standard I had my reigns short so I had good contact.

The lady is an institution in Horse Racing - Dame Henrietta Knight!

The horse is gorgeous 😍

Love this

I see the safety in this way if training...the horse can use muscle memory to quickly position it's own body to safely jump and land the fences. What I'd love to know is how she goes about fixing that confidence after they fall. If they go for the long jump and tangle their hind feet or don't jump just high enough and crash face first....because you know at one point it happened before the horses saw the race track. Be neat to see how she does that.

DIfficult call theres no real superstars at the moment, the man with the mike Mr Fitzgerald was the last of a golden era.

I saw Fitzy school on countless occasions and he never get one in close and taught it how to fiddle. Stood off every fence. Hen is 100% correct; do that 22 times. Racing has moved on from his era. He wouldn't get rides on a Bank Hol now.

Yet they're quick to pull out a horse that shows little interest in jumping. Anything can break a horse. We had a horse shatter his shoulder in the pasture! My own horse left gashes on her leg from being in the stall! Many racehorse owners take good care of their horses (but there's bad apples everywhere, don't get me wrong). It's the fact that many flat racers are started so young that's the problem. That's why many steeplechasers are started around 5 or 6 in Europe

@@saraheeter6559 I worked in dog racing. In my experience the "bad apples" are the ones that win. Just look at the iditarod its a great example. No shortage of stuff out there about 2021 winner dallas seavey. He has won a bunch of times and his family is basically the face of the race. The way they keep their dogs is on par with the way fighting dogs are kept and trained. Chains, barrels, slatmills. And its not like his family is worse than anyone else or that they do anything particularly odd compared to other racing mushers. Racing is an activity that rewards patterns of behavior that are not good for the animals. Its group think and confirmation bias. Racing animals is bad, just like fighting them is. They really do work very similarly, im not the first person to make that connection.

@@rachelr3113 I said that to Rick Gore on a stream once. He and his audience agreed with me. So "laughable" is taking it kind of far. Its a pretty apt comparison. I have worked in Dog racing. So I know how THAT works. There aren't too many people around that have first hand dog fighting knowledge anymore, but I have studied and read about it alot. The training is very similar to dog racing. Running, cardio, breed lots of dogs and get rid of the ones that don't have it. Whether you have 20 sled dogs, 20 racing greyhounds, or 20 fighting dogs; 20 racehorses; the flow of your life is going to involve feeding and cleaning up after 20 animals. It really isn't all that different. And then once money is involved the economics are very similar as well. Animals hat are good performers sell for more, but if they are good performers AND they are proven to breed more good performers they are worth even MORE. Just makes it harder on all these animals than it needs to be. Also I grew up working around horses and I know all about rich white people. Horse racing is a rich white people thing. So its going to be pretty tough to get rid of "the sport of kings". No matter how much info is out there about why its horrible. Dog sports have a long history of being more blue collar. Frankly, the general public should hate horse racing the most lol we can all relate to being overworked and underpaid by rich white people. Racing is a pretty brutally capitalist activity.
