I also slide over them so I can get a *really* close look.ReaganBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06953404860649618957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5049706103424602521.post-68711953424255220282011-10-17T20:18:53.953-05:002011-10-17T20:18:53.953-05:00Best way I found to remember the cross country cou...Best way I found to remember the cross country course (at a multiday show, anyway) is to walk it a time or two the day you get to the show. Make sure you know every fence and how it will look as you approach it. I personally like to walk over/jump over every fence, as you can certainly do to all BN and N and a lot of T fences. I mean, if I can clamber over, my horse certainly should be able to the next day!<br /><br />Then at night, as you sit at the hotel, or are driving to dinner, and of course as you go to bed(and vainly try to fall asleep!), ride the course in your head as it will look from horseback exactly how you want the ride to go. <br /><br />This will help you fall asleep, too, but you may forget the end of the course if you don't make it through at least once ;-)Bifhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07648037666735227722noreply@blogger.com
