If a horse knocks a fence they incur four faults. If they refuse at a fence they incur four faults. If a horse refuses to attempt to jump a particular fence three times, they are eliminated. Riders are normally required to jump around the course within a set time. If they fail to do this they incur time faults at a rate of 0. There are also specified speed classes where if riders finish on equality of faults the rider with the fastest time wins the class.
Under these circumstances, the sustainability is often limited. Foals should come into the arena calmly, evenly and rhythmically and trot through the corner. You can judge the quality much better, if the foals step nicely with the hind legs under the centre of gravity and move out of the shoulder exhibiting relaxed first steps.
The rider promotes and optimizes through training the basic pre-disposition of a horse. Hence the basic quality has to be right. In the early years, the trot is often in the foreground. Especially the canter has a much higher importance in the Grand Prix than in the lower levels. The trot often balances itself through going forward. It is of great significance, If a young horse is able to canter on the lunge on a curved line in self carriage.
All canter movements have a coefficient of two. This later makes up for the carrying of the body and the collection. Ulrich Hahne: The next point of the guidelines is the carrying capacity.
How do you recognize it? He does not have the strength yet. This is created. No matter how hard the rider tries, it will not work though, if the horse has no natural talent. This does not mean that such a horse cannot be trained. But it will never get the quality to go right to the top and last for a long time. Everything you have to train into the horse against its natural ability has its consequences.
In it you see a certain quality for developing carrying capacity. It is a good basis to build upon, if a young horse canters well, balances himself and uses his neck and his whole body. Desperados as a young horse — canters through his whole body. That is a core part. There are horses that have a certain amount of self-confidence, which makes things much easier. It is very important that the horse can carry its topline.
It depends on whether the horse takes his neck up to balance or tends to go downhill. You can already see this natural behaviour in young horses in the pasture. Ulrich Hahne: Watching a young horse already allows for certain assumptions. Especially in dressage horse breeding, young stallions are often used for breeding.
What should the breeder look for? It becomes a problem for the continuing training. The end result of things that require so much physical effort are often not what you hoped for.
As a breeder, you have to make sure that the foundation is really stable. Ulrich Hahne: It is often said that horses that are successful at the Grand Prix-level are more difficult at the beginning of their training. The interior must always be pleasant, and the horse must be willing to perform and accept a rider. It can be a bit more pithy at times, but it must not want to get rid of the rider. It is defined and interpreted very differently. Attentiveness is very important. There are horses that are sensitive or sometimes hot, but they keep an overview.
That is the most important thing. Horses that are very talented in terms of gaits, but have very little overview in their hotness or even act headlessly, are difficult. In my experience these horses remain difficult. A lot of effort and work can improve the situation, but it takes a lot of time. But they keep the overview. That is the big difference. Energy and the joy of movement are very positive and should be rated highly. But horses have to have the energy to do the piaffe and passage later on.
