Right Angle Rail
Goal(s)
Work on lead changes and bending.
Process
Start with the straight line featuring two ground rails spaced 12 meters apart to be taken at a canter. Follow with a left turn to approach a ground rail at a right angle, followed by a lead change before the second right angle rail. Perform the same exercise on the opposite rein. Then, adapt the exercise according to your needs.
Difficulties
Once the exercise is well mastered, you can increase the difficulty by reducing the number of strides between the two ground rails and making tighter turns.
