Introductory Cross Country Round
Shepherd Ranch Pony Club Horse Trials, Santa Ynez, California
June 15th, 2024
The edit of ground video from Amy and my GoPro clips from our cross country round this last weekend at Shepherd ranch. I have a habit of forgetting to start the go pro till literally fence four 😩
We went clear, but we did add 6 speed faults... I was happy with our pace, the intro speed is 300meters per minute, so we were a little too speedy for the time. But if this was BN/N, we would have been perfect with pace. My goal was to boost his confidence and that we did for certain. He wanted to take me to each question and felt better after each one. He really wanted to gallop and I didn’t want to fight him or feel like I was holding him back and I feel we met in the middle for a comfortable pace.
Thank you @amymichelleh for video and @suefriend13 for coaching
