Quality of movement wins ranch horse classes, and it starts long before you enter the pen. Cody Crow of No Where But UP Performance Horses takes a horse straight out of a Colorado winter stall and walks through his full warm-up: long walking to get the blood moving, then driving the hind end up into his hand to lift the horse's back so the hocks come under, the shoulder elevates and the stride gets bigger. He explains why he'll deliberately over-bridle a horse at home to get that back up — and why he'd never take him in the pen that way — plus how to hold a tempo while making corrections, and the difference between a true extension of the gait and a horse that's just running and scrambling.
