Don’t assume that every horse with a high poll is correct, and don’t assume that a horse that is low and round is incorrect. You have to look at the state of the horse’s *back* to truly judge how correct it is. The horse’s back should be relaxed, swinging, and elevated under the saddle, rather than still and hollow. When the horse’s back is properly “up” (arched upwards under the rider’s seat,) he will be correctly seeking the connection. And this can be achieved with many different relative heights of the horse’s neck. Never forget that it is equally as damaging to horses to ride them with a high head and neck with hollow back as it is to ride a horse cranked down in Rollkur.

I talk about this a lot since I have several students/horses that compete in both ranch riding and dressage (or western dressage)! It is possible for a horse to have both a quick stop (we don't have reiners so we don't do sliding stops) and a correct dressage halt, as the movements are cued for differently. I put a quick stop/good set of brakes on all my young horses early on, for safety. I've found it is natural for most horses to stop when you simply "quit riding". In a dressage halt, you don't quit riding, you keep those hind legs stepping under.
