In Hand Trec

[Orangehorse]

I have seen an In Hand Trec competition near me. What obstacles are used? I used to do Trec with my horse, so I have a bit of an idea, but it was a time ago.

So I'm guessing S shape, standing still unattended for 10 seconds (hands behind your back), backing up between poles. What else?

I'm no expert just going on the local arena competition I go to they do all the same ridden obstacles just led. So corridor, bridge, bending, jump, figure of 8, 'mount' (lean over), tear drop, bramble tangle I'm sure there's more but memory failing me now.

Edited to add, great education for youngsters and fun for small companion ponies!

Pretty comprehensive here, also the control of paces is a slow trot and a fast walk over a shorter distance.

It’s fun and something different for horses/ponies to think about
