About this video

Dressage rider Hannah Biggs has started her own breeding programme and has two 'babies', age 3 weeks and 3 months by her Grand Prix stallion Weltzin. She introduces Fiona Price to the younger of the two, the handsome Sneaky and demonstrates a clever leading technique which involves a towel! Sneaky is also introduced to a foal slip for the first time. Bella, who is a bit more worldly wise, is now familiar with being handled and lifting her feet, so Hannah introduces her to grooming and a natty little trick! Clearly, having a 'creche' on your yard requires a different mind-set to any other form of horse training, not to mention imagination!
