Correct isn't the same as plus. Three weeks out from the NSBA World Show in Tulsa, Cody Crow of No Where But UP Performance Horses works on a gelding that showed clean in Fort Worth but needs more snap in the turnaround. He walks through reinforcing the rein cue with his outside leg, why a horse has to settle and rebalance after the stop, and the critical difference between a horse that's responsive and one that's leaping off the spur out of intimidation. His takeaway: quit worrying about where the top line sits and start asking whether the horse was correct, responsive, willing and happy.
