Pilates for the dressage rider - any good? It's this one: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Pilates-Dressage...7206&sr=1-1

And can anyone recommend a dressage training book of this type http://www.amazon.co.uk/Dressage-Trainin...4966&sr=8-1

Basically I want to start dressage training with an ex racer who hasn't really done anything before, certainly no competing under his belt.

I would recommend this one:
A Gymnastic Riding System Using Mind, Body, & Spirit: Progressive Training for Rider and Horse
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Gymnastic-Riding...TF8&s=books

AND a good dressage trainer who has experience in retraining race horses...
Good luck
