Lateral Control

 Goal(s) :

Move your horse laterally over a pole.

 Process :

The horse has its forelegs on one side of the pole and its hind legs on the other. It starts outside the area marked by cones, requests a lateral movement, stops in the central zone, then requests another lateral movement to finish on the other side. The rider asks their horse to move laterally over the pole. Contract 10pts: on a lead rope. Contract 15pts: the lead rope attached to the halter with an elastic. Contract 20pts: at liberty.

 Difficulties :

The horse must move laterally without forward movement, risking all four feet crossing over the pole.
