Steward's Comments: When questioned regarding leading todays event Rider explained that her mnt has a history of being tardy to begin and her instructions were to settle where her mount was comfortable which is consistent with previous tactics when having ridden the mare. She added that after beginning reasonably well and when other riders did not show intent she allowed her mount to stride forward and lead.
