lliuugll guessing 11 tilt; optimum time for a particular pace is fast, average or slow, and trying to ride at that speed, is part of it, O’Keefe thinks maintaining a steady pace is most important.
“A good brisk canter, a hunting pace, is necessary,” she said.
O’Keefe added that the person who leads needs a good steady horse, that jumps without a lead. “You can’t have something out in front spooking at every cow or new coop,” she explained.
Fitness, too, factors in. Riders who gallop madly for the first mile or two, and then pull up to a walk or jog because they’re out of horse — or think their time will be too fast — don’t fare as well as those that keep that steady hunting pace.
O’Keefe also recommends carrying a stopwatch, as some of the times can get mixed up, especially at the paces with lots of entries or when several pairs cross the finish line at the same time.
