I schooled Red in the field today, and i really enjoyed it as it's really going to help getting used to when he feels abit more fresh and forward going. I managed to do 20m circles with him in canter because he had much more room to do it in. I found it really good for me and Red.
I got a really good canter going on the *letmethink* left rein but on the right rein he goes really flat and speeds up. He's not strong but if you half halt him to try and collect it abit more and get him off the forehand then he just breaks into trot. I'm not sure what to do.
Any ideas?
If you haven't got any ideas on how to get him off the forehand, please can you give me any ideas on how i can alter my position so that i can sit to this "on the forehand" canter? Because i just bounce around but my heels stay down and my legs go forward but i lean back a little to try and sit to it better.
Thanks x
