Interesting watching the intro and prelim classes today at a local venue
horse one did a rhythmic even paced test but was bent the wrong way spooking at the boards, horse was in the vertical thoughout with a steady head carriage and light and forward going moving from behind.
Horse two no rhythm fast, slow, falling in on and off the bit but bent correctly when asked cutting corners and a bit spooky, on the forehand
horse three above the bit lacking rythmn and ridden without contact rider made no real effort to engage it in anything.
horse four nice rhythm above the bit and very unsteady in its head look unlevel due to the head movement
Horse 5 lolopy and on the forehand, spooky but rhythm not bad, back legs in the next county so no engage ment
How would you place them felt a bit sorry for the judge I was a spectator so means nothing to me so you wont insult me I am also aware that its my observaton and its purely subjective I was jusr below the juding box at c so had pretty much the same view
