Tip/Quote of the Day # 1456
From member Catherine Norman ~ "One element of a combination at a time with a greenie, even one that is very experienced with stadium fences if they are new to XC. And if you aren't sure, ride forward, because underpace is not only harder for the horse it makes fences dangerous at the higher levels... Fences are made to be taken at a certain speed, not much more and certainly no less."
