Why isn't she pushing Movin?? She's just been loping her the last few nights. It's kinda aggravating me Dx. I know that little mare can get some!

Oh and Fallon. Is she gonna hit a barrel tomorrow night?? I seriously wonder how she's made it to the NFR if she's hitting barrels like that.

You are rude and condescending. As far as Fallon and her third barrel last night, we watched it slo mo about 3 times, and it was very obvious Flo was shouldering, and Fallon was riding and lifting Flos shoulder in a very aggressive and correct manner, it just didn't work.

It has nothing to do with respect or lack there-of. I have been around enough to have a pretty good idea of what they are up against just to get there and would never try to take that from ANYONE. And there is a witchy way and an honest straight-forward way to critique. The fact remains, every one of them will do great things and make mistakes during the week and we can learn from discussing it. Every time I or anyone else have tried in the last few years, we have been told to shut up if you don't think the Top 15 walk on water. I promise I'm cheering for all of them, even the ones I don't care for on a personal level because I do respect their accomplishments and the talent of their horses. I hate to see anyone go home without a check, but I also have my favorites. That is completely separate from picking apart a performance for the sake of education. In fact, I'm probably more apt to closely analyze a rider I admire because I want I ride like them. I've already had a lightbulb moment on hand position this week that I hope will help me hit fewer barrels on my gelding. And that came from watching the mistakes and comparing with who did it right on a horse with similar style to mine.
