wat do you think i should go for?

also, my show is :

walk away from judge, figure of 8 in trot, canter on both leads (change leg across diagonal) halt, is there anything i could do to make it better? he can do leg yeild and canter loops and stuff easy, but we've only just taught him rein back

M&M's should show a gallop in thier individual show, so after your second canter you should push for an extended canter or gallop along the long side.

i would say 5 32 and 37...


your show sounds fine... don't want to do much more than that.. a lil rein back might be nice... but just see what people do before you. normally gives you an idea on what you may need to add. normally they would do a fast canter/gallop down the long side in a ridden class. but just see what others do...

good luck! lets us know how you get on!
