Horse & Hound

A podium mentality

• Every transition requires thought, preparation and a planned place to • Every halt transition should be corrected so that it's square; consequently your horse never learns to halt incorrectly. • Every jump must stay on the line on which you have approached the fence, with a focal point to continue the straightness afterwards. • When trotting over poles or jumping a showjump, always line up specific stripes on the poles to be exact to the millimetre. • Take your own fitness and health as seriously as the horse's.
