"This detailed, practical guide to handling, breaking and training young horses, based on the experiences of a top trainer and world-class competitor, is an invaluable aid and source of inspiration. The whole process of raising a young horse successfully at times seems fraught with difficulties. When should one introduce the roller, and then the saddle, prior to backing? At what stage should lungeing start? How does one avoid over-facing a young horse, and asking too much too soon? Loriston-Clarke answers all these questions and many more. Backed with details on how she trains her own top-class horses and the problems she has overcome, she gives sound, practical advice on every aspect of working with youngsters.
