Part 2: Leslie creates a line of fences with a ditch and a skinny. He reminds the riders of the importance of their eye when jumping ditches and urges them all not to let their line of sight get caught in the ditch, instead of looking to the next fence.

Leslie offers feedback as the riders work through the fences and lines between, and explains how he uses training to find out how much pressure he has to apply for the horse to jump.
