Does anyone else see some of Murphy Himself in Nicola Wilson’s Opposition Buzz? They aren’t exactly similar but both horses are in a different league when it comes to xc, I don’t think there is a horse as good as Buzz doing the tracks right now. . . and like MH he would probably bounce everything possible!!
@Emily2whisper
Welcome
this is fantastic
really enjoyed it thank you 
amazing
@ginnie321
welcome
love seeing the old style xc courses thanx for puttin this up
i have no idea how they do that. if i pointed my horse at those jumps im pretty sure id be flung off his back in a heartbeat
lol you dik!! a horse has a mind of it own you know!! my horse is an eventer and this is exactly what we do!! if he doesn’t wanna do somthing then he refuses point blank so i dnt push him!! but more often than not he jumps things first time with out a question!!!! you know fack all about eventing and by the sounds of it fuck all about horses aswel… so fuck you prick!!
@horseA123 hahaha what do you think makes murphy himself jump when he’s got 3 feet of reins to do whatever he wants with? he does it because he wants to
I don’t think anyone could have possibly ridden those questions better & more masterfully than Ginny did. A class rider all the way!
i think that horses asre the most amazing amimals in the world to do the aspects that they are tought
I went to a Mark Todd Selects show last night at Gleneagles….he is just amazing & even more impressive to watch him working his magic in the flesh…It was a great night….
Mark Todd and The Irishman had the most AMAZING round.
And Ginny- how accurate! Fantastic stuff, all of them (riders and horses) complete legends.
Thanks for uploading this!
nice video … i went the the ian stark clinic at galway downs….. ha my friends were right … he is know 4 making people fall! but hes an amazing trainer… btw does anyone know of any good eventing places in Southern California?
Spliced mix of Badminton and Burghley
what event was this? it looked a bit like ledyard, but i couldn’t tell.
@horseA123 i love how clueless you are. but its all good.
horses arent pets. they are bred to do a job and event horses job is to event. if the sport didnt exsist neither would the horses.
I once watch a three day event on crosscountry and a person broke his stirrup and still finished the hole corse with no faults!! XD Amazing!!!
The more I study eventing, the more I know it is too much to ask of our horses. If we love them and they are our pets first, this so-called sport is so wrong. It is like a 4 year old child standing at the top of a hill in San Francisco straddling his tricycle – yep, it looks fun. They know about the same amount as the horse. Of course they’ll do it if you ask, but they shouldn’t…
Damn! Crosscountry=total insane trust.
And these guys have THE skill and THE power and strength! lord i wanna be a cross country rider! i know one thing, i’ll fall off by random, XD
Indeed, he was amazing… with multiple riders too, which detailed his talent.
WOW… O.O that Murphy Himself horse is Bloody Fucking amazing… O.O OMG OMG OMG…. Love the vid btw
x
Nah, I appreciate the admiration for them… I found (the way) eventing (was) to be much more interesting back then than it is now.
It’s glorious to see Murphy Himself in action.
The quotation from Ginny was:
“If Priceless were human, he would have made a good sergeant major. He’d be butch, short, muscular and aggressive. Night Cap is much more the officer type: incredibly polite, very good-looking and far more sensitive than his bossy stable companion.”
Forgive my advanced senility. I’d run Crafty and Night Cap together…
