In Spain the broodmares also take part in a traditional display - it is a very moving and quite unusual way to see horses perform.  The mares all have a bell around their necks and are joined together by a long string threaded through their collars.  They are worked in formation by a rider on a stallion in front of the line, thisis called a cobra.  In some movements another rider assistant from behindThe stallions seemed to enjoy this job !!!
