| Abstract
|
:
|
This book first looks at horse anatomy and then considers the horse's gaits, using sequences of photographs and detailed anatomical drawings to show the systems of support and movement at each phase. The walk, trot, canter, gallop and jump are all examined, and the effect of the rider on the horse evaluated so that the rider can take appropriate action to avoid hindering the horse. Tips are provided throughout on ways in which the horse's life can be made easier, such as saddle fitting, warming up and cooling down procedures
