I started this filly under saddle the end of January, and today she got to go thru the pattern for the first time 😊 Once I get a c**t broke enough to my hands and legs, I find it very beneficial to casually start them on the barrels as it shows areas of weakness and responsiveness I need to fix . Teaching a horse to position their body right where I want it from their nose to their hind feet requires them to be very broke. In taking them thru the barrels it challenges them to respond accordingly from my body to theirs.
