Hi, I'm having a bit of a problem going from trot to canter with my horse, and with canter on the whole. He's going really nicely in walk and trot now, collected, working from behind and in an outline and going smoothly from one to the other. But when I ask for canter, he trots at 200 miles an hour and then throws himself into canter, then the canter is very long and uncollected with no outline at all. I gather this is probably due to him being a bit unbalanced but does anyone have any ideas on how I can work with him to get him more collected and in an outline. He's got an amazing jump and I'd like to start affiliating him next year, but I'm not going to until we've got a good, balanced canter. Sorry its so long!!
