Much of human civilization and our history has always been connected with the horse. Since ancient times, it has been praised by the world's greatest poets and artists as the most perfect creation of Mother Nature. And how could it be otherwise? After all, its fiery eyes, flared nostrils, perked ears, tail in flight, slender legs, striking a delightful beat, are above any perfection in the world! And the horse itself, as if flying above the earth, soaring in the clouds of our imagination, evokes the most stunning emotions in us! Man owes it a great deal: when he first saddled a horse, the world opened up before him, as if he had gained wings and began to conquer spaces, times, and continents!
