“Swatch” really said, hold on. . . One of my more concerned combinations on course. We had the upright log into the water before 6-7 strides through to B-C elements of angled tables. Swatch is now fairly comfortable jumping into water, but sometimes he seems to get his feet stuck in the sand 🫠 aka, lose all forward momentum once we’re in… . So, I stayed out a touch through my turn to A so that he had time to read the log going into water. I wanted to be a bit forward into a deep distance. If your horse is questioning you, the gap distance can lead to a chip but in the same thought I definitely don’t want to reduce the power by pulling back. So on approach I closed my leg and stuck my bum a little tighter to the saddle to keep his feet quick and balance uphill, but I kept a bent elbow and following hand so he could use his neck over the fence. . So tune in tomorrow to see how he jumps out 😉 . . . We are wearing the Arma Brush Boots by shires_usa and Grackle Bridle and Anka Breastpl...
