>> Should this type of "seat" be allowed in evaluations? IMHO...no. Nothing natural about using any gimmicks to enhance gait. A saddle placed back on a horse's back, is just that...another training gimmick.
>> What does this seat say about the trainer who rides and trains like this? That they use shortcuts and gimmicks to train horses. Raven Lucy & Molly, the Girl Doggies Huginn, the American Ice Pony Dixie Chick, the Barn Goddess Respect ALL Earthlings. We are all animals of this planet. We are all creatures.
