Pattern 21, Novice

Findings:

• Trot from cone 1 to cone 2 briskly, stopping with hip at cone 2.


• Pivot slightly, making sure that you do not over or under pivot, you may need to practice this, I found that it was about a 1 1/2 step pivot.


• Trot directly to cone 3, stopping with hip at judge and your horse's nose in line with the cone.


• Perform a nice 270, trot directly to the judge stopping 1 1/2 arms length away.


• Upon dismissal, back at least 5 steps, perform a 180 making sure that your horse pivots on the correct foot, you may have to pull your horse slightly forward to perform the pivot correctly.


• Trot briskly away and past cone 3.
