Coyote Country Queen Posts: 5666	I wanted to share this video of my mare's run from Sunday at the Christmas Cash race. It's been about a year ago that I posted asking for some advice to take some time off of our runs, so I wanted to show how she's running now. Still working out some of my riding issues, but I'm very pleased with this run. I have a bad habit of picking up my reins too soon and pulling back instead of guiding around the barrel. I got around the first okay, but second and third weren't as smooth! And I'm seriously going to figure out the over-and-under! I spent several strides home trying to find it instead of riding. Anyways, here it is. We were .6 off. If you have any critiques or advice please feel free to share! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y2Pa0d8mWRU&list=UUHZzr5fJOk0vI3gM2v...

Coyote Country Queen Posts: 5666	Thanks! Yep, that forward motion issue is a pilot problem! I need to ride one more stride so that I can keep her driving past and around the barrels. She's a big girl and not very quick footed, so if we get too tight she loses all of her momentum. If she would just quit listening to me!
