Another thread from me!
My boy is rising 5 and has been competing in intro dressage locally. In our second outing, we came 2nd in the championships - 2 marks from 2nd.
I am now ready mentally (got the hand of remembering tests and preperation) for prelim. My lad is steady in walk and trot working in a true outline from behind. Our canter leaves much to be desired to be totally honest, but I think that we should go for it and just try.
He will work well sometimes in canter, but not consistently on the bit, but still tracks up. I do not have a school at home, so this means practicing in the field all the time and doing a test means it is also a good schooling session on a rubber surface.
I have a day off soon which coincides with a prelim 14 at the local riding club. Should I go for it or will I be laughed out the ring?
Please heko me guys, should I wait or try it out.
