Hyper Space Race Horse Training - January 8, 2011 [11:50]
Hyper Space Training with race horses. This is a young horses first work. Pre empting the work by a 'fluffing' of the colts 'frame' and especially giving his lower back muscles a chance to stretch and get a 'blood' flow in the area, before the riders weight and demands of jog, gallop and breeze.

Ex race horse Toby - Flatwork Dec [03:52]
Hey hey! This was from like, a week ago, just been slack putting it up! Just a bit of flat work with the Toby pony, main aim at the moment is suppling him up (if that is even a word? You get what I mean anyway! :P ) and getting him to go in a steadier rhythm, rather than worrying about jumping. Most of the ride from that day was done at a walk - at least the first half hour, did a bit of long and low, taught him a bit of leg yielding which he got the hang of pretty well I thought. Trying to get him out of the mind frame of just because I put my leg on, doesn't mean we go 100 miles an hour, lol :) Most of the trotting footage we caught was on the right rein, he seems to not be flexing so easily on the side, so did quite a bit of work in the trot and canter too. Anyways, I won't bore you with too much blabbering on, just thought I would clear that up before I have 100 people at me that I should ride both ways etc etc... Just because it is not on camera, does not mean we didn't do it! :) No crit on my riding, concentrating more on his way of going, rather than how I look, for the moment anyway. Thanks so much for watching and thank you to my 201 subbers! Please leave me a thumbs up and a comment, I absolutely love reading them all!!! Luv Katie xoxoxo

Horse Racing - Kings & Queens [02:32]
Where to begin.... I've been working on this video since 10th April 2010, a date which sticks in my mind because it was the day that Tony McCoy finally won the Grand National on his 15th attempt. It was wonderful to watch this normally quiet, restrained man visibly rejoice and show his emotion. This reminded me of Mick Kinane's Arc triumph on the great Sea The Stars, the horse that stayed his retirement for one more season, and what a season that turned out to be! This video may not be perfect, but what work of art is? This song leapt out at me because having spoken to, heard and seen winning jockeys the overriding feeling I get is that, if only for a moment, as they cross that finish line they are on top of the world; they are invincible. I've tried my best to bottle that feeling and put it into my favourite format -- video. So apologies for the long, waffling description, I promise there will be cyber-pie (approved by Dean Winchester) for those who got this far, but I just wanted to give a background to the most epic (in scale, I'm not blowing my own trumpet) video I've made to date. The knowledge that just a few people may be touched by this video kept me going through the hours of tedious masking (frame after gorramm frame), chroma keying, colour correcting and the endless previews I rendered and forced my friends & family to watch. Your comments make it worthwhile, because in my opinion the response from others is what defines 'art'. NOW GO AND WATCH SUPERNTURAL. ALL ...
