There is no better feeling than galloping down to a jump when everything looks and feels just right. You arrive at the perfect spot and fly over the fence without a care, congratulating your horse as you gallop away, his ears pricked as he takes you eagerly to the next fence.
But other times the story is quite different. The nearer you are to the fence the less you see, it just doesn’t feel right. You start to panic, pull on the reins and kick all at the same time, doing everything you can to arrive at the right spot
When you miss your stride and part ways with your horse, bruising more than just your ego?
In these circumstances even the most simple XC course can render us a nervous wreck,
But what if I told you that it didn’t need to be this way?
What if I told you that you could easily learn how top riders navigate enormous XC fences? And that in a few short weeks, you too, could begin to develop the skill and confidence to ride the bigger tracks. That’s exactly what I’ll be teaching inside my 28 day Challenge
is the question that many riders ask me. But what they usually mean is “How do I make sure I won’t end up falling off?”
We are not riding robots and even the most docile horse can be unpredictable at times.
However, you can minimise your chances of trouble by implementing your “Rider Responsibilities”.
The truth is that the bigger the fences, the more chances there are for things to go wrong.
Just look at the epic fall I took at Badminton in 1986 🫣
Most falls I see at lower levels of competition are due to the rider believing that it is their job to jump the fence, (which it isn’t) instead of letting the horse work it out and do his job. As a rider your mission is to “set up” the correct gear for each fence and then make sure he sees the fence at the earliest possible moment – and – importantly – desires it.
Your job is then to regulate that desire to the pace that is appropriate for the fence, as you maintain the balance, so your horse can figure out the way to jump it.
Not every rider either has or wants the opportunity to ride a 5* horse XC and that’s not who this training is for. Whether you’re riding a young horse, a green horse or an advanced eventer, there are three principles you need to have when approaching a solid fence, or combination of fences.
This challenge is designed to train any horse and any rider to find that sweet spot in front of the fence, and will have you galloping down to a fence without pulling, panicking or making last-minute changes. In fact, once you learn my Perfect Stride System, you will be confident – and you may even find that, as a bonus, you do in fact develop an eye for stride.

When we launched this Challenge for the first time last year everyone thought I had been hacked. We had non stop messages saying it was a scam. What kind of crazy person offers a cash incentive to become a better rider?
Let’s face it: horses are expensive. As a professional equestrian of more than 50 years, I know how crippling horse bills can be. So I decided to do something completely unorthodox, and offer big cash prizes for those who are willing to show up and do the work.
Here’s how the “See-a-Stride” cash competition works:
Take a video of you riding a horse over a simple, small fence* (your horse, or a borrowed one).
Follow the training plan and complete the weekly exercises.
After 28 days, record another video riding the same fence, on the same horse.
Our panel of world-renowned equestrians will judge the biggest transformation.
We will send you the cash
*Specific details of what we want to see in the video are sent after purchase.
Tim Price, World No 1, winner of 5 x 5* events and multiple Olympic and World Championship medals.
Reigning World Champion, National Young Rider Champion, and individual Pony European Champion. Yasmin was runner up to Michael Jung at the Kentucky 5* and is still at the beginning of her career.
Olympic, World and European medalist, and winner of 14 grand slam titles including Badminton 2 times and Burghley a record 6 times.
First person to win the Rolex Grand Slam, 2 times Badminton winner, 2 times European gold medalist and Olympic medalist. Pippa has been at the top of the sport for the last 4 decades.
Young Rider European Medalist and top 20 finishes at Burghley Horse Trials. Tom came to the public eye after showing great sportsmanship when he fell at the Badminton Lake this year and pretending to front crawl in the water, earning the name “Aqua Man”
Ex International 5* Event Rider, U18 coach, Pony Club and Riding club trainer for the last 3 decades. Mark understands grassroots riders and the struggles they face.
Ex International 4* Rider and Coach. Diana worked for Bruce Davidson and then Lucinda Green for many years. Diana has ridden and coached using Lucinda’s principles for the last 25 years.
These were not the words I wanted to hear from my first coach, Pat Burgess. But I really had no “eye” for a stride, and thank goodness I didn’t. If I had I would never have had to work as hard as I did to develop the skills necessary to enable me to achieve what I did.
1 x World Champion
2 x European Champion
1 x World team gold medal
3 x European team gold medals
1 x Olympic team silver medal
6 x Badminton Horse Trials champion
2 x Burghley Horse Trials champion

Okay you’ve convinced me. Clearly I NEED this challenge!
A: Yes, myself and my team really answer your questions on the Private Facebook Group every single day. Every single member is important to me and if you’re struggling, I want to help you succeed. So if you’re interested in personal advice straight from Lucinda Green, now is the time to load up.
A: This is an online learning program which does require you to have access to a horse to enter the Challenge. You can absolutely borrow a horse if you’re not lucky enough to own one or yours is in lay-by. All we ask is that you use the same horse in both the before and after videos.
A: Absolutely not . . . It doesn’t matter if you’re an Olympic equestrian or new in the saddle. I have helped early-learners right through to the highest professional achievers. I seem to be able to instil information in a way that riders can understand and apply.
A: Again, the answer is no, you don’t even need a sand arena. As long as you have an area to ride and jump, you can apply what I’m teaching here.
A: As soon as you purchase you’ll be sent the PDF training and an invite to the Private Facebook Group. The training videos are in the PDF. To watch them, simply click on the name of the video, and it will open in your device. Once you receive the PDF, simply save it to your computer or handheld device and it’s yours forever. (But don’t worry, if you lose it, my team will send you another).
A: Indeed I can. Any applicable sales tax is added in the shopping cart. That’s it. There are no other charges, no recurring dues.
Any other products or special deals you ever see from me now or in the future are optional.
