Just loved watching this amazing scene of normally hard working horse and man having fun on the beach. What a great release for them both after endless hours of standing amongst the annoying unappreciative public at Horseguards in London. What is it with tourists who are often rude to the soldiers. I am passing this wonderful film on to friends worldwide for them all to appreciate. More of this please. I loved one scene in particular where the large dark bay obviously was not happy going in to deeper water, so the soldier turned the horse round and proceeded to back the horse in to the deeper water. Thank you for posting this, it has made my day. xx

Loved that horse in the water but with his back resolutely turned. It's just such a horse way to deal with it. "I'm not sure about this "sea" stuff.... I'll go in if you insist but I'm NOT looking at it and that's final!!! " Reminds me of when we took my nieces QH colt to the beach for the first time. When we came over the dunes and saw the ocean he just froze.... You could see the cogs turning "that is THE biggest puddle I've EVER seen!!! " but we did get him to stand in the shallows at least... Even tho he was convinced it wanted to eat him lol

I see this as not only time away to relax for both horses and soldiers, but additional training too for the horses. Getting them used to the surf is really no different than getting them accustomed to blowing trash on the street, honking horns, loud traffic or mobs of handsy tourists. The soldier that was backing his horse into the surf was likely doing so the horse wouldn't be afraid of the waves coming AT him. It gives the horse time to adjust to the sounds and sensation before having to confront the "visual". Also, letting a horse dictate to the rider where it will go or not is not acceptable. I've had to back horses up a few times when they didn't want to move forward, and once they understood they were safe and they wouldn't get away with refusing, I didn't have any more issues.

And a form of bullying to those around them. As in "How DARE you complain because my child's Absolutely Normal Screaming caused your horse to bolt and you were hurt?"......
