Something controversial or provocative about this subject  Breed associations need to make their judges accountable to the rules and standards set out for the breeds under their jurisdiction or they need to change the rules.
What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?  Earn a national title and school a horse to Intermediare level.
Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:  No one ever really masters the art of riding. Like all other arts, it is a lifelong learning experience. Horses keep us humble.
