Nice class, many of those "half passes" sure looked like leg yields. Maybe it's the jumper/dressage rider in me, but I would have wanted to see more elastic and energetic - through canters, some were border line choppy 4 beat. It's an opportunity to show off how much hock action your horse has from extended to collected, many missed opportunities.
Jumper/dressage rider? Odd. But that explains why you don't know that this was an equitation class. even if it were a division judged on the horse's movement, extension and collection aren't really about hock action. plus, it is physically impossible to have a 4-beat canter.
@@cca8076 thats riiiight! its an equitation class. riders r being meticulously judged. highly highly disciplined sport. also, good catch on the "4-beat canter".
