Maybe the thought is the color would distract the judge's eye (how could it not) from the horse's movement...? You could have the worst mover in the world - would the judge be able to focus on the ride or be reaching for the trash can?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1813777829951446721.post-53512826115071245062009-10-07T16:10:22.781-07:002009-10-07T16:10:22.781-07:00Well, d*mn.

With the "I'm a Barbie Girl" music (with retooled lyrics).<br /><br />So I'm not at ALL surprised, I guess.... except.... a DRESSAGE saddle?<br /><br />I'd much rather have the Union Jack jumping saddle that was on here awhile back.cattypexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17589672286463092432noreply@blogger.com
