This was the 63% - 4th place Intro B test.
My warm up was "un-orthodox" to say the least. I was flexing her head loosing up the jaw, I also had to get her listening to my seat so was actually doing walk/trot transition. I know, not the best thing to do BUT it is MY warm-up and it works.
Great test. Rosie is bending nicely and staying on the bit. Good job! You guys are doing really well. I don't think someone who hasn't done it can comprehend how challenging it can feel train a horse and bring it to their first show. I'm so impressed. She didn't even blink going by the trailer with the judge in it. What a good girl.
ReplyDeleteAlso, what's wrong with walk / trot transitions (your warm up)? I thought they were a good thing to do.
ReplyDeleteGood for you!
ReplyDeleteI think you had a pretty good test. You have to the warmup that's right for you and your horse!
