Show Abby pictures of the way Tiger is suppose to look in Hunter Pleasure for Thoroughbreds. Specifically point out where the pole of the horse should be in relationship to her saddle or personal body. Show her what a horse looks like above, on and below the bit. There are plenty of them out there. Racing is above, Dressage or Hunt is on, and Western is below and behind. Show her high, medium and low head sets. This will help her to visualize correctly.


Headset was used in referance to high meduim and low... nothing wrong with that.

He said point out where the poll of the horse is (should be) in relation to her saddle and body... Nothing wrong with that either!

As for above on and behind the bit he refernced racing dressage and western as places or type of displines I could look at to find pictures for use to talk about. IE I could most likely find pictures of below and behind the bit in a western type horse...

Our trainer is not a DOUCHEBAG!
He is trying to teach her how to evaluate a horse by looking at it. This is just one part of it.
