　　以下節錄之佳句均出自於Euro Dressage網站上Greatest Oldies系列內之文章，英文的部分是原文，中文的部分則是讀後心得。希望這些讓我感動與頻頻點頭的部分，能提升台灣騎馬人士對馬術的態度，更希望藉此增進馬匹們的福祉。（ps.有些文章因為感受不深，所以沒有寫心得。）

Dr. Reiner Klimke's Ahlerich
http://www.eurodressage.com/…/09/30/dr-reiner-klimkes-ahler…

Klimke's innumerous duties as a lawyer led to a slow and patient build-up of his new acquisition.
馬術最需要的是耐心。
Like many other talented horses Ahlerich had a lot of temperament and was so sensitive that he wasn't very forgiving.
遇到敏感的馬匹時，更需要耐心，因為聰明的馬不僅敏感(神經質)，還會記恨。
Reiner Klimke offered his gelding a varied training to help the sensitive horse settle more and more. He admitted later that Ahlerich had given him more than only one sleepless night, but it was worth it all!
運用多樣化的課程豐富調教內容，減低馬匹的煩躁，讓馬匹不覺得無聊乏味，進而激發他的潛力。
Like all of Klimke's retired horses Ahlerich lead a luxurious life in his home stable, where he was cared for in the same way as all 13 years before.
別只想儘快地轉賣與你共渡過無數日子的老馬(病馬)，馬匹值得擁有更好的生活品質，不是嗎？
He and his master will never be forgotten, because they displayed true classical dressage for over a decade and brought joy to dressage lovers all over the world.

Nicole Uphoff's Rembrandt: A Living Work of Art
http://www.eurodressage.com/…/nicole-uphoffs-rembrandt-livi…

He loved to spook and was very sensitive, but he was very ambitious and loved to work at the same time. So when Uphoffs talked about selling him and Balkenhol advised them to keep the jewel.
千里馬常有，而伯樂不常有。　韓愈〈雜說四〉

So Rembrandt, the workaholic, was often worked during hacks on the forests, which helped to settle his sensitive mind.
野外騎乘可以幫助馬匹放鬆；但是不要騎在馬路上，很危險！

Mariano, the First World Champion in Dressage
http://www.eurodressage.com/…/mariano-first-world-champion-…
Mariano was a challenge to ride and train. He was ambitious and loved to work, but he was not forgiving at all and could be angry with his rider for days. 
聰明的馬都很有個性。真正的高手會以馬匹的天分為選擇要件，再用調教提升馬匹不足之處。
they showed a ride of rare harmony and brilliance, in which the light contact with the bit was extraordinary, too. 
手要輕一點。
Mariano was the most successful horse of Dr. Josef Neckermann and his most difficult one.For both reasons Mariano remained his most favourite horse of all.

Pepel, A True Legend of Russian Dressage
http://www.eurodressage.com/…/pepel-true-legend-russian-dre…

Pepel was quite wild and it took his new rider much patience and loving understanding to change his attitude.
耐心和真正愛護馬的心最重要。
He was unbelievable proud and also quite stubborn. Pepel's memory was very good and he never forgot anything,
調教馬匹時不能硬碰硬，要以柔克鋼，「讓」，慢慢建立馬匹的信任感。
There was just no difference between him moving in freedom or under a saddle. Everything looked totally natural and easy.
這是在馬背上的人要做到的功課。

http://www.eurodressage.com/…/granat-ugly-duck-beautiful-sw…
