16m
Sacha now works with Marie on the movements in the tests she will be riding the following weekend. Before the second try, Sacha gives her great exercises to help her with keeping him round and through. When the 10-meter circles prove a challenge, they regroup and add a whip to reinforce Marie's right leg. They restart the test with a better ride, and we get an interesting look at the challenges Marie faces when riding. Her test includes walk-canter transitions, walk pirouettes and lengthenings.
