Thank you both for the report. Sadness. She is the nicest kid.
Hopefully she is young and this is great experience.
Top 4 returning for the test:
Zayna Rizvi
Eleanor Rudnicki
Skylar Wireman
Grace Debney
I think itās also a little more unpredictable with three judges, just because itās harder for them to reach a consensus.

Hand-gallop 1
Sitting trot back to gate, exit at walk
Edited - originally the announcer requested a closing circle at sitting trot after the hand-gallop to 1, but that was corrected to hand-gallop 1, show a sitting trot back to the gate, exit at a walk, no circle requested.
Her last year but great experience regardless.
I must be getting old - Iām having a hard time remembering this test.
I thought when I saw that pillar that it was a set-up for a counter-lead to turn back to some part of 9B or 10. Itās perfectly placed to help you out on that to turn inside if your horse is slick on the left lead. And to help you miss that lead change if you donāt land it.
Oho oho a hand gallop
donāt you make us cluck kids
IāM READY.
post my post you dumb forum software
I missed her hand gallop because my husband distracted me, should I have been clucking?
Mine is playing golf, I told him it was medal finals day and I would be unavailable.
It was fine, showed a change up to a good working pace, she settled back down to the jump 4 strides out.
Oof Eleanorās horse stuttered hard off the ground at the Swedish, looked like.
Ugh, tough break for Eleanor.
Little rough overall. I have Zayna over her.
Aw that was too bad, Skylar really didnāt halt.
I liked Zaynaās test until her sitting trot. Her leg was braced and her wrists were flat.
Skylar just BROKE MY HEART
Zayna is the only one who has actually completed every part of the test so far, though.
