26		1	Gaits	Freedom and regularity	7		7
27		2	Impulsion	Desire to move forward with suppleness of the back and steady tempo.	7	2	14	needs activity from behind
28		3	Submission	Acceptance of steady contact, attention, and confidence.	6	2	12	not always honest in connection

31		Super pair! Talented rider and expressive horse. Work on keeping horse in front of the leg and creating increased impulsion and pushing from behind to create a rounder and more powerful frame. Horse has good energy but hind legs tend to trail out behind him so that overall fram is long and level which is fine for this level but....potential for much higher level of work is there as rider learns to put horse more together with increased push and thrust into a recycling hand. Best of luck!!
