Prada - Dressage test 1.3

Pradas second unregistered Dressage competition.

Waitemata Riding Club Spring Dressage Day 1

Thanks to Sue for calling - she did a fantastic job as always and I REALLY appreciated it!

Great day - We did Preliminary for both Tests - 1.1 and 1.3

Came away extremely pleased - had a hard week coming up to it with the exciting new grass coming through and thought she behave beautifully.

Came away with things to work on

1. Getting her trot a bit more consistantly forward.

2. Getting her canter back with me a bit more (HEHE - we had a couple of comments that she liked to canter :) )

3. Getting her trot to canter and canter to trot transitions snappier so she is not running into her paces.

4. Me relaxing particually at the start of the test- You can tell im tense from Prada.

This test she score 68.46

Her 1.1 (Not on here) she got 5th and scored 61.36

Her next dressage comp is on the 9th of Nov so am looking forward to seeing if we can work on these points.

Side note - This song is my stop and do nothing song.... (Fav all time song) you know the song that when you hear it you have to listen.... even if you are about to get out of the car you wait for it to end.... - Yeah well this is mine.... (They had a convo on the radio about stop and do nothing songs). I do have another (Matt Kearney breathe in Breathe out - its on another vid of mine)

So whats yours? :)

Thanks for the comment - :) Completely Agree - Yeah thats what I was working on with my instructor a couple of days before (Bringing the canter back /slower). I'm also working on her transitions as we tend to run into the canter too (we being me ;) )

Gotta love the Half halt....
