Ranch Horse Riding The purpose of Ranch Horse Riding should respect the versatility, attitude, and movement of a working horse. The horse’s performance should simulate a horse working outside the confines of an arena and that of a working ranch horse. This class should show the horse’s ability to work at a forward, working speed while under control by the rider. Light contact should be rewarded and horse shall not be shown on a full drape of reins. The over- all manners and responsiveness of the horse while performing the maneuver requirements and the horse’s quality of movement are the primary considerations. For rules regarding correct Western appointments, refer to AR144. 1. Each horse will work individually, performing both required and optional maneuvers, and scored on the basis of 0 to 100, with 70 denoting an average performance. 2. The required maneuvers will include the walk, jog, and lope both directions: and the extended jog and extended lope going at least one direction; as well as stops, and a back. 3. Three optional maneuvers may include a side pass, turns of 360 degrees or more, change of lead (simple or flying), walk, jog, or lope over a pole(s); or some combination of maneuvers that would be reasonable for a ranch horse to perform. 4. The maneuvers may be arranged in various combinations with final approval by the judge. 5. The overall cadence and performance of the gaits should be free- owing and ground covering for all gaits, with an emphasis on forward movement. Transitions should be performed where designated, with smoothness and responsiveness. 6. No time limit. 7. One of the suggested patterns may be used (found on AHA website), however, a judge may utilize a different pattern as long as all required maneuvers and the three (or more) optional maneuvers are included. Should a judge use one of his/her own patterns, it is recommended to not have the stop following an extended lope. 8. The use of natural logs is encouraged. 9. Posting at the extended jog is acceptable. 10. Touching or holding the saddle horn is acceptable.11. Hoof polish is discouraged. 12.
