Welcome to a new video! Today we’re off to Brook Farm for our last chance to compete in the Prelim 19 and Novice 23 tests before our Summer Area Festivals! I hope you enjoy and please don't forget to subscribe xx
I was watching your test and thought you were doing very nicely. Then you critiqued yourself, and I was thinking to myself, did I miss something? Your second test went nicely too. THen, you revealed your test scores. You won both classes! Girl, you are way to hard on yourself! You've worked so hard and your both are going out and doing your absolute best and winning! You look great out there and so does Vossi. Don't doubt yourself! You've got this, believe!!! Thank you for your video, I do look forward to watching them!
Thank you so much! I think it’s because I genuinely don’t know what a “good” test feels like yet! Until I get the scores, I tend to critique and think about what I would get marked down on as opposed to how well it went. Dressage is so subjective so I just never know until the final marks come through 🙈 I’m a panic person haha😂
I think you are over thinking the sluggishness in the prelim, if anything in your prelim it looked hurried and unbalanced in places, the Novice trot was better balanced and had more jump, which is probably why it felt more forward. The power comes through when balance is achieved. Speed is not your friend, you want quick balanced uphill feet …and by the way, your riding has sooo improved and Vossie looks super …credit to you for working so hard …congratulations you are nailing it
I loved your prelim 19 as I was watching it…..both tests were super !!!! The wins and PB’s were well deserved !! The sky is the limit for you two in dressage, so keen to watch you both climb through the olevels 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👌🏻💯👊🏻🥰❤️
