The fact that people disregard the entire ride over a piece of riding equipment that is being used properly is astounding to me. That horse enjoyed every part of that ride, and he was soft in every part of his body. Spurs or not, get your head out of your ass and enjoy the hours and blood, sweat, and tears it took to get this far, to this piece of art.

Simply amazing. She's never been ridden with a bridle, I can only imagine the kind of hard work and dedication it took to get to that level. Congratulations to Luke, he did a fantastic job.

I’m so lucky to be living only an hour away from this place, we go every year many’s days during the month. Loved every part of it, hopefully I’ll be able to participate one day with my horse

That was absolutely beautiful. Seeing so much connection between horse and rider fills my heart with joy and hope.

The song fits so well, daughtry has such a nice voice for this. And the amount of trust is amazing between the horse and rider.

That horse is incredibly focused! Not only in being placid with such a large and vocal crowd, but to disregard all of that sparkle flashing around in its extensive peripheral vision! I definitely like a horse that has been treated well enough to be this confident and calm compared to the highstrung English-style horses I first learned to ride on as a kid. Impressive!

Tears of joy at her level of ability! Just WOW!

This brought me to tears. What an amazing display of trust dedication and hard work. Absolutely glorious.

this is incredible!!!! a FOUR YEAR OLD?!

the hours that go into a ride like this is amazing. my hat is off to you

UNBELIEVABLE! A special and amazing duo, I can't even begin to imagine all the work that went into this. She sure loves him, you can tell she's giving him her all, this is just beautiful.

That was beautiful incredible congratulations what a wonderful wonderful horse so sweet great moves

Well this brought tears and I’m not a cryer. Just so beautiful .

Just Stunning loved it!!! Western Doing Dressage, yeah baby. Congratulations she's a beautiful Palomino, Gorgeous!! Blessings to you all!!

One can only hope and strive to have that kind of connection with a horse.

That was just wonderful to watch - so precise; they are a fabulous team!

Amazing they had so much fun together ♡ that is how Riding should look like

Bridleless and liberty show true horsemanship!

I went to congress to see the free style reining.....but I just HAD to watch this ride again! Amazing job!!!! You made it look easy when that level of riding is so challenging! Keep it up!!!

This is a wonderful partnership. Congratulations❤️

YOU GO GIRL!!! She is GORGEOUS!

Incredibly beautiful! Flashy, gorgeous horse and rider. Bless them both!

Absolutely beautiful human and equine- and absolute connection- and I look at the historians that connect the bit and bridal to when humans started riding horses and would ride horses into battle and I always felt that we didn't need a bit and bridle to ride horses- This is huge proof of that- it is also incredible advocacy to the humane treatment of horses where you see some painful bridal equipment being used on some horses which I have always been against. Anne Kursinski started show jumping in hackamore's and now we see this wonderful display of absolutely no bridal display- looks like he is using a breastplate or a lead around the shoulders and withers and neck and a lot of body language I also do believe that horses and humans can read each other in an almost telepathic manner and this proves it. 👏❤️🙏

So impressive. Awesome horse and trainer!!

Kudos to him if, he trained this horse with just a neck rope.👏👏👏 It's totally awesome when, a human has a great connection with these or any majestic critters.

Amazing….having shown in a pleasure class, I can appreciate the leg cueing…

Geez, why did i cry when he loved on his horse at the end??

Absolutely love this!!! This man found Gold in this horse here. I had a bay gelding, i could do anything on with the same type of set up. The tiny string around his neck. He was super sensitive so super responsive and loved to please. Switch leads every step at a walks pace. Slide to a stop, spin all the bells and whistles. Barrel raced, pole bending, and even roped on him like that. Absolutely amazing when the connection like that is there. It's like the only love that works and doesn't break. I still love that horse. Haven't seen him in years. (My partner, my friend i sure hope wherever you wound up, that you were well taken care of and loved as much as i loved you) minor side track yall. My bad. And spurs just speed the response time, keeping attention where it's needed. They too can sidetrack in high energy situations. This mare was doing her job, and doing it well. Great performance man 👏❤ hold onto that horse she's one of very few that one finds that bond.

Здорово! Столько труда и такая отдача ! Это самое клёвое ,когда есть такая связь с любимым животным . Снимаю шляпу. :))

Ouf !!! Magnifique performance ! Aucune brutalité animal Bravo ! Bonjour du Québec!

Божественно!Не смогла удержаться от слёз!

I think some dressage riders should loarn somenthing from him ,great riding .

Damn Gorgeous Mare and she a Dream horse 💗

Love this

To all you so called judges out there in any horse discipline...this is what you should be judging on. Horses and riders can be a partner with out all that so called head gear..no bits, no bridals and no SPURS....this is the ULTIMATE.of any great performance you will ever need to judge..this just goes to prove..you do not need those barberic implements..to put on a great proformanc..it is all body language.. horses are the best at that....their life depends on it ....

Just wow

Pretty mare! She’s like a live Breyer horse lol

Awesome

Fantastic

Wow! Beautiful. This shows love and a partnership between horse and rider! What an amazing example of passion and dedication. It really shows the flaws in our species when folks trash everything and moment. Nothing is safe from unnecessary judgment. Why watch the video if you're not appreciative of the content, just to fuel your negativity? Go get a passion that brings you joy instead. If you aren't there to witness the interaction in the flesh then pass no judgment, if you witness injustice INTERVENE. That is if you have a pair, rather than posing to have a set on the internet.

Love the outfit

Praise The Lord for His wonderful creation the Horse! And in Revelation 19 Yeshua (Jesus in Hebrew) is coming back on a horse!! I started Liberty when no one heard of it and many horse people thought I was crazy🙃🤣. But yet they would ask me why my horse was so good under saddle! And when riding. We would go on trail with just a halter and lead rope. AND YES this takes some time to get there BUT SO WORTH IT!!! THE LORD BE WITH YOU ALL IN YOUR TRAINING AND RIDING🙏❤️

Awesome!

Bravo!!

Wonder if she is related to wizards baby doll? Beautiful she will go far outstanding performance congratulations 🥂🥂😍😍

Beautifull
