This is Daunte's first Western Pleasure class and second time ridden in a western bit so I didn't use a curb chain, hence you see him chomping a lot. Plus, to make things even more interesting the tour buses in the background had girls surrounding them and right before the video started the girls were chasing the boyband around them so we had to only use 1/2 the arena. I had to assure him it wasn't the end of the world the whole class...it was great. Poor horse. But he survived and got many treats :)
P.S. My horrible leg position is due to the weird make of the wintec western saddle, which I borrowed at the last minute also...I wouldn't recommend buying one unledd you know it fits you.
