Findings:- It's important that you start in line with the judge (and if you're the first to go in the pattern and the judge is not standing there, to make sure you have enough room at cone 1 so when you stop and pivot at cone 2, you don't run over it!)
- Trot from cone 1 to cone 2, stopping with your horse's nose at 2, perform your 360, looking up at the judge towards the end of your turn so that you don't over or under pivot.
- Walk from cone 2 to cone 3, picking up the trot at cone 3 (make sure you are asking your horse to trot off with you BEFORE you get to cone 3, so you aren't late in your trot off).
- Stop with your horse directly in front of the judge (1 1/2 arms length away).
- After dismissal, back 5 steps, pivot 90 (you may have to pull your horse slightly forward so that it doesn't pivot on the incorrect foot) and walk away.
