Pattern 9, Advanced Novice


Findings

  1. Trotting around cone 2, you must make sure you don't cut to close to it otherwise when you stop, you will not have enough room to perform your 360.

  2. Stop at your horse's should between the 2 cones.

  3. Walking around the curve, make sure you are looking up and around so that as you make that turn, you come straight to the judge (you may have to practice this several times as this was an unexpected difficulty in this pattern).

  4. Back, perform your 180, right before you trot off, give a courtesy look over your right shoulder and trot straight away.
