Tip/Quote of the Day # 972
Since many lower level horses anticipate the transition from canter to trot in the Dressage test, it can be a good idea to do a few canter circles when practicing tests at home, instead of just one. This way the horse will not learn that when doing a test he does a quick canter, and then is done. It is also a good idea to canter past the letter that you will be doing the downward transition at in the ring. These measures can help to prevent the very common "falling from canter into trot early" problem.
