NEW!! Moving Pictures - See the incredible difference - the added dimension that moving pictures provides! It's more than a picture, not quite a video, it is a moving picture that brings the articles to life in a way that pictures just can't do!!

This month we take a hard look at the World Equestrian Games. See why the half-passes remind us of Kurt Albrecht's words on Leg Yielding. See why Oliveira's words on the cavesson and the horse's body strike true. Check out our article "The Emperor Drops His Pants" where one winning horse can't do something every child's pony can. Why is he winning?

Incredible historical black and white film footage of "Those Crazy Frenchmen", the riders of Saumur. Watch these amazing riders from the past!!! There is nothing they just don't seem to want to tackle, from *dressage* to jumping, steeplechasing to precision riding, and they do so with joie de vivre with their horses that is both amusing and refreshing to see. But you really would think that a Frenchman would take better care of his wine!

From Ahlerich and Klimke, to Lipizzaners in Extended Trot, from Badminton, to Pride, this picture rich edition is a celebration of our love and joy in our sport and in our horses.

We invite you to come and share in this month's edition of Horses For LIFE.
