Jennifer Sekreve on the super moving Before you Know (by Scandic x Krack C). The stallion was extremely distracted and unattentive to his rider, failing in submission and obedience. Solution? Chop Chop!

Ines Westendarp on the wonderful Furstenball. Unfortunately, the stallion ran out of steam in the test and was not sharp enough off the rider's leg.
