Judged Pleasure Ride

A Judged Pleasure Ride (JP)  is meant to be fun or a pleasure with a little competition. It is a great way to get a horse ready for competitive rides of longer distance. Many riders choose this type of ride to relax a horse normally used for ring work , schooling young horses or for people who do not have the timer or interest to condition their horses for CTR or Endurance rides. The distance is between 10 and 20 miles. With no time constraints the pace is slower and the terrain less strenuous. There is time to enjoy the company of friends, the scenery and perhaps take a few photos.
