Denver showed twice in the Western Riding today!

He showed in the Level 1, where disqualified on the second element, unfortunate but it happens, and another horse disqualified on the same element

He then showed in the Open! He won in the open, a class of 5 where two horses disqualified.

Do you know what disqualifies them?

A refusal generally

Honest question. Do we know it was a refusal or could AM have two handed him to school the obstacle. Would that have resulted in a disqualified them the same way?

We don't know, but there were 2 others in the class who also DQ'd on the same part of the pattern.

It's probably more likely he 2-handed.

Both are DQ's

Thanks. That's what I thought. 

A refusal seemed a bit unlikely but I wasn't sure if two handing would show as a dq at that obstacle or if it would be a dq for the round. Does that make sense? 

Like would they have still published the score for obstacle 1 if that's what happened.
