Demonstrating proper Equitation walk-trot [01:34]
Equitation is vital, especially in a show. It's just the "book" way of how you should look on a horse from the basics to the olympic levels. Walk- trot is simple. I listed some of the things that should be on your equitation checklist in the video. You'll also see a comment I included about making the horse work off her back end. As a horse is supposed to be balanced, the "power" should come from the back end. Keep contact in the front, but make sure your horse's hind end is always engaged. Another pointer... a sitting trot should be visibly slower than a rising or posting trot. while in the sitting trot, try not to bounce all over the saddle. Some horses are very bouncey. A way to strengthen yourself up to be able to handle this with good eq would be to try no stirrups. This strengthens your leg and teaches you not to rely on stirrups to balance you. Also lets you really get the feel of the horse's motion/

Bet On It! Horse Racing 3D trailer [01:39]
BET ON IT! HORSE RACING 3D is a lively film for old and new fans of horse racing. The film follows a punter from the moment when she purchases a betting slip until her winnings are paid out. After a brief introduction to the history of the Munich racecourse the documentary shows the jockeys training. In slow motion sequences we learn how professional racing jockeys keep their balance at 60 kph. Wolfgang Figge, Germany's most successful trainer of racehorses, explains why his thoroughbred horses are so successful. The 3D camera looks over the shoulder of a judge as he assesses a close finish. Further sequences cover the horse walker, parade ring, preliminary canter, and weigthing the jockeys. 3D animations show how betting works and how the winning odds are calculated. The highlight of the film is an exciting racing sequence.
