The following pictures were taken during early trials of pre-production
The early trial session was carried out by Dr Alison Reddy BSc Hons (chiro) MMCA at her Parkland Stud in Leicestershire. Although primarily a horse breeder, Ali is currently making a name for herself as a rider, competing in show jumping and dressage. Ali rode her own stallion Archie during the trial. Following the trials Ali said: "
are a great training aid to horse and riders of any age, ability or discipline.
I have used them in both lunging and ridden work and found they increase the balance, co-ordination and the concentration of the horse and rider, it really made Archie slow down and pick his legs up. They are light and easy to use, a great investment for any stables." |
