Dig It, the Dancing King

I'm putting the following video behind a cut, for those of you who aren't into dressage. I don't know much about it myself. But this performance by North Forks Cardi, the Welsh Cob stallion who just won the Freestyle Grand Prix at the U.S. Nationals, is captivating. (The music is very cool also, and suits him to a T.) For those who want to know more, Judith Tarr at Book View Cafe explains why this is such an accomplishment.

At any rate, it's just great. Enjoy.
