Making The Most Of Your Turns On Course

As an ‘R’ rated judge, one of Hope Glynn’s pet peeves is witnessing riders who don’t use the corners on course to their full advantage. Setting up the proper track at the proper pace out of the turn is crucial to the subsequent outcome of that first fence or a line. Learn her strategies to consistently set yourself and your horse up for success coming out of a turn.

Running Time: 8 minutes and 16 seconds
