1				PURPOSE: Tests confirm that the horse is supple and moves freely forward in a clear steady rhythm, accepting light contact with the bit. The horse demonstrates greater understanding of the aids and calm acceptance of the bridle; greater emphasis is placed on relaxation, harmony, rideability and pure gaits. The horse is beginning to develop more impulsion and balance.			JUDGE:	Charlotte Trentelman	Link:	https://youtu.be/5qhwkW7ACng?si=sbCGpNn6TBM7E0jK
