I chose #1 because I liked his fluid movement, transitions between canter and trot and willingness to flying change!Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07335385366138424092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6317822193674196694.post-14442494597818254092012-11-02T07:34:49.141-04:002012-11-02T07:34:49.141-04:00There are two amperes?

For eventing, the first one. more extension, flatter canter, he looks very scopy.<br /><br />Of course I wouldn't kick any of the out of my barn if they showed up!Shadow Riderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02015365019108553741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6317822193674196694.post-15402405264923223012012-11-01T16:04:08.128-04:002012-11-01T16:04:08.128-04:00The damon hill ampere.

All three horses have fancy trots, but I like a horse that willingly takes up the canter, like Ampere.
