Description: Details

In this book Carl Hester shares his training methods and shows how they can be adapted to suit individual horses, all the horses featured in the book are horses with problems because in real life the perfect horse does not exist. Suprisingly, all the horses featured in this book are horses who have problems. None of them are perfect because in real life dressage the perfect horse doesn't exist. "The aim of this book" Carl explains "is not to describe ideal training scenarios but to look at what we can do, to the best of our ability, with the horses we have. Difficult horses can become good horses as I have proved with Escapado"

Assisted by co-writer Polly Ellison, Carl outlines his training regimes and favourite exercises, following some of his own horses up to Grand Prix. As the training progresses Carl examines the problems commonly encountered and explains how he and other riders overcome them.

Carl's training philosophy is very much on the lines of the German training system where the fundamental ground rules from the 'scales of training' apply. In working up the levels to Grand Prix you will see that he regularly refers backs to various aspects of the training scale as he firmly believes these ground rules should be applied constantly if you want to get the best out of your horse.

The book is generously illustrated through out with colour photos.
