Wears headscarf aggressively
yes I know what you mean. I would add a caveat that this was a bit of a rough and ready ride round so not her *best* work but as I know her I find it easy to see when she's in appropriate balance, when the suppleness is good etc. TBF to the judges, they are all list 1 at this level of show and (with the very rare exceptions) they can see through the fluff and hair and score the work She's a 65% kind of horse, we often get 7s for her changes, good sideways will score a 7, the piris are pulling up towards 7s (bit big on Saturday) she is inclined to be tight in the walk in a test but I think the curving line in the collected will help with that. From experience of previous scoresheets I'd say that video is more towards the 6s than 7s reflecting the lack of warm up time, possibly more generous in the trotwork (but we'd have had a knock in the submission for the errant change in the extended!)Love this - great work MP! It's so nice seeing a non-typical horse at that level too, sometimes it's hard to visualise 'non-warmblood' movement and it's helpful to see what correct work at that level looks like on a different type of horse. I'm not sure if I'm making sense there, hopefully you know what I mean
