A fine bold fencer. Note the propulsion that has been given by the hind-limbs and the 



extension of the horse's head and neck. The rider's weight is practically over the 



horse's centre of gravity. The rider is in a position to lean his weight back or remain 



in the same position as circumstances may require 



with each horse. Young horses generally want 

 a little driving the last length, so the rider will 

 close his legs the stride before the take-off 

 and again deliberately at the take-off stride.
