Xerex 2007

Xerex in 2007. This video is only to show his development. He has been a very difficult horse for me to work on because he finds it so hard to stretch deep. I try to sit in a light seat on this video to make it easier for him to lift his back. I am unsure of the positive effect of this. I have a very unstable contact to his mouth, or mostly I have no contact at all - which makes it even more difficult for him to stretch forward I think. I have practised a lot on the stable contact since then and it has become better. In this video he has been worked steady for 4-5 months, 2-4 times a week. He is 4 years old.
