35		Notes: Lovely turn out for rider. Very neat and tidy looking. Your centerlines were very straight and your salute was clear for me to see. You want an energitic walk but make sure the horse doesn't pick up the trot.(the horse trotted in the corner because you asked for too much at the walk). The size and shape of your circle is very important. Making sure the 20m circle touches the sides of the arena and make sure the horse is always properly bending to the inside of the circle. Finish the circle where you start it. Start to be more accurate now and then we you go farther up the levels it will be so much easier for you. Follow the line of the circle. Be accurate with your turns and corners as well. Always be sure you have the correct bend. Your horse was counter bent and looking to the outside several times.(On the circle and in the corners) Remember to look up and in the direction you are going. The horse should be looking in the direction you are going and focus on the inside of the arena as well. You did have some very correct walk with good energy! The walk after the first circle from KAF was very good and very correct! That is the walk you want for the whole test! The person that had the leadline did an a great job because it was easy to see that you were really riding, not being led around. Good job! Loved the horse's festive outfit too!
