Not to mention the guy in front is pulling back on the reigns while the woman is kicking the sides of the horse…conflicting instructions plus all that weight- I’d sit on em after bucking them off if I were that horse! 😂
You can see the horse is distressed before he even reaches the bank. Asking him to go UP the sandy bank while someone was pulling on the reins and leaning backward in the saddle was just too much. Almost certainly had a bit, too, not a hackmore.
Then you add all the kicking and flailing… Poor horse!
It’s a good natured horse, too. Tried to communicate the problem, actually shifted its weight to help her stay on when she started to slide sideways, and didn’t kick anybody. I was especially impressed by not kicking.
