    I'll ask Andreas Hausburger. Unless you already know the answer, Mike?

    It does look like Podhajsky. Andreas isn't around yet today. Will post as soon as I hear.

    Podhajsky is my hero! I love his books, especially "My Horses, My Teachers".

    But to be totally honest, that it was he was a lucky guess.

    Somoone commented under the photo that her horse did this! I know the feeling - I used to ride a jumper who'd come into a fence doing his version of caprioles. It was a bi^ch to count strides!
