31		2	Impulsion	Desire to move forward. Elasticity of the steps. Suppleness of the back and engagement of the hind quarters.	7		7

33		4	Rider	Position and seat. Correctness and effect of the aids.	7		7
34		Lovely pair, be sure to use corners to balance each movement. Think of riding movement to movement more than a test. You're ready for greater accuracy, circles should be round and not go into corners. Horse and rider show plenty of ability. Careful that forward stays balanced and not in front of the horses balance. Good luck, this pair shows much ability!
