Stretching and loosening your horse at the start of exercise is usually done under saddle. But regular stretching on the ground after exercise when the horse is warm, can extend his range of movement, reduce stiffness, remove lactic acid and generally improve circulation. Equine masseur Beth Butler shows Fiona Price a number of stretches which can help dressage horses to become more expressive and jumpers to develop a' fifth' leg. Exercises include the 'girth stretch', a neck and shoulder stretch, 'half pass', hamstring and 'farrier' stretches. Beth provides clear explanations and Fiona's horse Norris proves to be a willing model!
