Tip/Quote of the Day # 3418
"Leave the horse totally alone [through a gymnastic line of jumps.] I make sure that I come with the right approach to the first fence, for the rest, I say to the horse, this is totally your job. What I want is fifty – fifty, the same in cross country, my dressage means my transition comes through, and then I say to the horse, now it is your turn, you read the fence, you land properly in the water, you look for the next fence, not me. I guide you, I follow you, I made sure that I close all the doors at the narrow ones and explain to you exactly which way to go, the rest is up to the horse. It must be his responsibility, I don’t want to take it all because it is fifty, fifty." ~ Ingrid Klimke
