TCJpart102 Galloping About








TRAKEHNERS AT FULL GALLOP:
Anyone who has watched Trakehners galloping about, has witnessed something very special.

When the boys are feeling fit and playful, or it's windy, or even when they're pretending to be startled by something, off they go pelting around the land.
A regular group of horses would simply move about with chaotic carefree abandon at a speedy rate, scattering about with varying degrees of speed and agility.  Not so with a group, or in my case a small gang of 2 Trakehners.


They move with perfect synchronicity like dancers at the ballet...only much faster.  Perfect co ordination and matched velocity, they gallop side by side until they break apart like the red arrows.
John has taken some brilliant photos of their antics, here are a few.


They are just exquisite aren't they?
Tom and Henry: Trakehners of extreme gorgeousness.
