This seems to be one of the most informative videos on what the judges look for in the Western Pleasure Horse and Rider

PART ONE:
'In 2003, AQHA Executive Director of Judges Alex Ross, along with Dale Livingston, who teaches many of AQHA's judging seminars, produced a video that exemplified in detail the ideal western pleasure horse. The AQHA's five-member executive committee sent the video and a letter to every one of its judges.

"The purpose of the tape and the letter was to address how the executive committee wanted to see the class change for the better," Alex says. "In it, the executive committee addressed a couple of points, particularly horses not displaying self-carriage and the lack of forward motion at both the jog and the lope."'
