emily davison didnt mean to get hit by the kings horse
emily was trying to pin the suffragette medal on the kings horse but she missed and so she got hit by the horse and had really bad injurys and she died in hospital 4 days later on the 8th june. :(
No, her father came out to see what she was doing. They had a talk for a while, but army vehicles drove up their drive way. She had to quickly hide the horses.
The name of that jump is cross rails. It is usually what people use as there first jumps when there learning.
The comfort level may vary from horse to horse but it probably is not be a good idea. Jumping is very strenous especially on the horse's front feet and legs. As a horse lands on the other side of the jump all the concussion (from body weight, height and speed) is taken up by first one front hoof and then the other, depending on what lead the horse is on as he lands. Even small jumps may be too much for a horse that may be ouchy.
if your horse refuses the jump, you turn the horse around in a circle, then go a little ways away from the jump, (but not too far giving the horse time to think about how to get away with going over the jump) and then (if the jump is not too large) trot your horse over the jump giving it leg pressure up to the jump to coax it to jump. (its easier to trot over the jump than canter when your horse doesn't want to jump it) if your horse refuses a jump during a show, this will count down points but if your horse refuses a few times you are disqualified. hope that helps!
yes any breed or type of horse can jump, how well they jump depends on how well the horse was trained.
Spooking does not matter hoe high a horse can jump. If a horse has jumped over fences and has been trained you will be able to have your horse jump higher in competition.
When a horse scopes out a jump, it just means that the horse is looking at the jump trying to get a good idea of how tall/long it is and where they have to take off in order to be able to clear the jump.
I have never heard of a horse jump 13 feet. The highest I know of was 8 feet.
Well that will vary from horse to horse no matter how good the training. The best way to find out is to free jump the horse and continue to raise the jump until it's clear how high the horse can jump without problems.
Horses usually knock the pole down over a jump because they are being lazy or didn't get a good start off the ground. Make sure your horse has enough speed, so that when they jump, they'll lift their front legs higher. You can also practice jumping "X" jumps. It will help teach your horse to pick their legs up.
-Put your horse in the middle.
