With time, it will get easier.

Maximized the screen and got all but the far right side of the picture (where the little "ball" goes to show the end of the video).<br /><br />I agree with Jean. His canter didn't look "compact" (which means he really wasn't coming from behind). You have a lovely seat, as I have said before, so you're TBDancerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03889066602819359591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6317822193674196694.post-62698766538021815892012-07-04T19:04:58.449-04:002012-07-04T19:04:58.449-04:00Nice job!

I get the feeling overall that Riley needed to be altogether more forward into the bit in this test. I suspect he was a little more tired. That canter break was a bit of an escape from the trot, but it was actually kind of a nice depart.
