Plaiting a very thick short mane!

[SpotsandBays]

Hello all! So after my post about plaiting an extremely thin mane the other day, has anybody got any tips for plaiting a very thick one? I’m planning on going to dressage in a few weeks and I always struggle with my boys mane. We end up with golf balls! Is there like any secret tricks I’m not aware of? Or Is lots of little plaits the answer? He doesn’t like his mane pulled, I do have a thinning rake which helps somewhat but I think I’m just cr@p at plaiting manes to be honest so any tips would be fab!
