This DVD is designed to help anyone who competes or intends to compete in horse trials, hunter trials or team chases.
Lucinda Green, ex-World and European Champion and record six times Badminton winner, ranks as one of the most experienced riders of all time. In this programme you are able to benefit from the vast depth of knowledge that she has gained, as she takes you round many of the obstacles that you are likely to find on a cross country course.
Looking closely at many types of fences and their alternatives, Lucinda discusses the important points that should be considered when walking the course and, using a variety of different horses and riders, demonstrates how each of the obstacles and their alternatives are negotiated. She gives helpful tips on how to ride various fences and deals with the problems that can arise.
Only a few rules can be applied to cross country riding, as there are so many differing factors involved, such as experience and type of horse, the terrain, weather and going. Lucinda gives practical advice on how to obtain the best results and gives a fascinating insight into the techniques that have contributed to her many successes.
