>>>> I would like to ride Gat but my instructor says she doesn't have a balanced canter yet so for now I should ride a 'tried and true' lesson horse. So, I'll see how it goes--play it by ear.
But even that shows some sort of concern for the horse - or maybe it does. I've known of a trainer or two who would pull out a certain horse for introducing riders to canter, because the horse had such a good canter. And one would only teach leg yield on another horse, using the horses for what they were good at. Karen Thomas [EMAIL PROTECTED]
