AQHA Ranch Pleasure class videos from this weekend.

This is my good friend showing her mare, Lavish Love, who won the 2012 AQHA Honor Roll in this class with over 100 points.
This year, the class is approved for Amateur, and this was Ann’s first ever time to show her mare in Ranch Pleasure. She won the class with 18 entries. Show was in Las Vegas, NV.

Pleasing to watch! Smooth combination, good on them.

I’m anxious for the APHA to start having these classes. I hear they’re very popular at the QH shows. I can’t stand the “how slow can you go” western pleasure classes. My gelding can do it, but I don’t think it’s fun to ask him to.

Very nice patterns. Thanks so much for posting them.

Very nice. Beautiful gaits! Thank you for sharing!
What I saw over the weekend doesn’t begin to compare to this!

Nice job by both horse and rider (I only watched Ann’s video)! I continue to enjoy watching Lavish Love’s success.

Very nice!! I’d love to see the majority of western horses move this way!

Nice, owner rode best

Your friend has a very pretty mare!
