Horse manoeuvrability...

Manoeuvrability competition in Boutigny sur Essonne (south of Paris, April 6, 2008). The aim is not to go as fast as possible, but to pass the obstacles maintaining paces of horses. Obstacles mimicks natural situations for instance as shown in pics 3 to 14 horse back riders had to pass a trench of about a meter width and a few tenth of centimeters depth, but with some strong blue plastic pieces on the bottom. Some horses don't care at all whereas someothers get surprised and OOPS!!!!!!!
but hopefully no damage nor for horses neither for riders
In pics 16 and 18 the aim was to pass UNDER the sticks wich the height is adjusted to a few more of each horse withers'
