Those are some super marks minus the obvious mistakes- think how high you guys will be scoring once the leads issue is resolved. <br /><br />Rio's canter used to look really quick all the time, even though it didn't necessarily feel that way. I think it was because he still wasn't balanced and pulling himself along on his forehand. Now that he has more muscling and carries himself better, it looks a lot slower. Maybe a similar phenomena is going on with Cupid? Hard to say without video, just a possibility! <br /><br /><3 Kelly @ HunkyHanoverianKelly the HnkyHanoverianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18336047158009394408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7093964705553781206.post-18780469889998981402018-05-30T15:10:45.549-07:002018-05-30T15:10:45.549-07:00Thanks!Thanks!Training Cupidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14225857133948773885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7093964705553781206.post-40603572476225856592018-05-30T07:16:06.081-07:002018-05-30T07:16:06.081-07:00Congrats on a great weekend!Congrats on a great weekend!Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05438372155463437107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7093964705553781206.post-89934207647529087852018-05-30T06:58:38.073-07:002018-05-30T06:58:38.073-07:00Well my reins are pretty loopy ("I can see th...Well my reins are pretty loopy ("I can see them bouncing" as my coach says) - bad habit from mainly trail riding and doing hunters for 20+ years!Training Cupidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14225857133948773885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7093964705553781206.post-78842312718737880072018-05-30T04:05:47.851-07:002018-05-30T04:05:47.851-07:00Sounds like lots of good moments in each test - co...Sounds like lots of good moments in each test - congrats! The connection and roundness can seem so impossible esp on a green horse. Whenever I feel like I’m pulling too much I just add more leg. Lots and lots of leg. Usually seems to help! emmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05686949099663199382noreply@blogger.com
