So glad I watched this, just realized the final halt is at G not X -- thank you! Lovely ride!!

Thanks for your kind comments. Sadly my young mare didn't really love dressage so we're jumping now and she's happier. But wanted to mention, since show season is almost here again: We screwed up on the free walk. Her rhythm wasn't active enough. Judge said" Losing energy but regular. Relaxed, good overstep, more march and more stretch" Other thing the judge commented was wanted to see more bend in corners. Hope this helps!

I am having my first show on my OTTB and we are doing this test! I am a little nervous though because he also doesn't really like dressage and sometimes gets a little crazy, but hopefully everything will go well! Good job btw you looked really good.

I noticed that too, the free walk didn't happen. Lovely moving horse and such a shame to give up dressage. Let's see if I do as well as you did.

KoolKidsTV I know this was 2 years ago, but I’m sorry your mare didn’t love dressage...you made such a nice pair in the dressage ring! Good on you though for noticing she was much happier jumping and going for what she loved instead of pushing her to do something that her heart wasn’t really in.
