Today's dressage

and in the transition out of piaffe

I'd like to upgrade previous comments to me thinking that horse wasn't quite sound :o
 
Horse is sound just has inconsitancy in trot work, shown in all trot work at did points.

Painted black now tho! Love this horse
 
Painted black and the spanish lass - lovely wee horse

dianchi, I disagree, the horse was uneven at points in trot and therefore, unsound. You're welcome to disagree, natch.
 
My phone rang, and I missed the half pass mistake - what happened?

I was bickering about soundness so not 100% sure but I think it struck off, couldn't quite get back into trot and ended up in limbo between walk and canter for a couple of secs then just didn't get it back across the diagonal. may well show it now in replay...

eta yes, struck off, back to walk, struck off, back to walk etc


was that 72.51? I hate that they don't always show it on the screen :/ (and no it wasn't!)

Yep - saw it! Off all the hard things to correct, that has to be one of the hardest!

See horseball training comes in handy doing several things at once!
 
Mind you, I find it easier to achieve half pass than canter at the moment, so I'd be ok!

Fergs doesn't have half pass.

Unless there's a horse murdering pigeon, of course.


Piaffe / passage work isn't overly impressive with this one :o In the interests of balance, the lateral work's quite nice though :D
