USEF / PFHA "Ocala Classic" Paso Fino Horse Show Friday, March 19, 2010

Once the horses are in the line-up the class has been JUDGED.

The idea is no horses are to be on line-up uncontrolled. They are not to bump into one another ever!

Hibrowhorsefarm: 188 was swishing his tail the whole class horse looked very uncomfortable the whole class. The class looked very fairly judged.

The judges did judge this class fairly the horses with the loose reins are not engaged in the hind end as well as the bad mannered horse. The manners of a paso fino horse does not get judged as harshly as the gait itself no matter what class you show in. As with the horses with the tight reins thier horses are not over collected and are using thier entire body with fluid the grey horse and second horse (bay) are not collected through out thier bodys and both are strung out in the hind end.

How could you possible call #223 "loose reined". I think you need to look again.

[topcommission]

My God, what a bunch of sour grapes. Sounds like you can't win so you tear down the ones that are. #188 obviously had the least talent of any of those horses.

[PasoFinoRider101]

I hate this! They give all of the awards to horses that are badly behaved. This is why no one likes paso finos. They think all of them are wacko. :/

[hibrowhorsefarm]

Wow is this a Mild Manored Paso Fino Competion or a Polo Match?

[greyhoundhorse]

Yes, I know what you are talking about. It is wrong! I've seen ribbon presenters get knocked down too when an uncontrollable horse spins out of control. Ridiculous that it is not stopped.

[hibrowhorsefarm]

Has this happened to you? Are the judges fair? What do you do if another horse is Bad Manors & Dangerous throughout the Class? Do you report it? Why not?
