Zanton: The Irish Draught

A big strong horse from Ireland, I watched this horse go through three trainers, successfully dislodging all three at various stages and injuring one of them seriously. Some of the previous training techniques were suspect and created fear in the horse, an emotion that was passed onto his owners.

I was finally asked if I would like to train the horse. I hate to see a horse discarded when every issue or flaw can be fixed. As you can now see in the video, he is a pleasure to ride.

After he left Seco Training Stables, he went on to compete in Hunting and Eventing.

Savannah: Eventing

This is a typical mare, her issues are a result of owner faults. She is an Eventing horse and is naturally gifted, her flaws began to appear when she was purchased by an amateur rider, both horse and rider lost their way as the new rider began to loose confidence in herself and the horse.

The mare refused to jump and go forward, she rejected the bridle, and began to buck. Eventually after taking to much negative training  she totally shut down when being ridden.

As you will see in the video after the first week of re-education at the Seco Training Stables she was a different horse and was a joy to ride, her flaws had disappeared through my re-education techniques and she was accepting of rider once again.
