Some really nice moments in this test! Rider is better balanced and horse responds better showing more energy and supple bending. Work for consistency of tempo and bend and shape of circles. Try to use the side of your eye to see where halts shoiuld be placed so that horse doesn't drift following you looking at the letters on the long side. Show more clear difference between free and medium walks. Talented young rider!
