Findings:- Make sure you are set up and ready for the judge's nod while waiting for the previous exhibitor to finish their pattern.
- Trot briskly and have a crisp stop at cone 2.
- Backing the arc proved to be more difficult and took several practice tries for all of my students to master. You will need to practice this over and over until you have mastered your horse's body, so that you don't over or under steer.
- Walk your horse straight to the judge, stopping an 1 1/2 arm lengths distance away so that you can perform your 360 without bumping into the judge.
- After your 360, set up for inspection (most of my students needed to practice this as the pivot foot will be still slightly turned inward, so that their horse would be square quickly).
- Perform a 90 (do not over or under spin) and trot briskly away.
