Findings:- At cone 1, be prepared to trot right off
- At cone 2, make sure you transition is smooth, your horse shouldn't stop, shouldn't be jerky, it should look like and easy smooth transition to the walk.
- Walk your horse briskly to cone 3 and stop with your horse's nose in the middle of 3.
- Perform your 90, do not over or under pivot (most of my students OVER pivoted).
- Back until your horse's hip is at the judge (I personally stood just OFF of the cone, so my students need to LOOK for the judge and not at cone 2).
- Perform your 270 and possibly pull your horse forward so it maintains that pivot foot
- Walk to judge, look pleasant.
- This pattern has no directions for dismissal...so just do a 90 pivot and walk away.
Tomorrow we're going to RAMP it up with another VERSION of this pattern
