Is Minimoo asleep ?
Moomin, do you mean that you would never put her in an Intro test, or just that you would not take her to do any test until she had canter sorted?
Mini Moomin is being a very good girl and allowing me to have some peace and quiet lol!
I wouldn't take her to do any test to be honest (my horse, not Mini Moomin ;-) ) unless I was confident that she is capable of performing walk, trot and canter to a reasonably decent standard. I just tend to think that if there is a problem with the canter, then there's something still lacking in the basic training ie balance, straightness etc etc and I personally wouldn't compete my horse when there was an issue like that. But I am a perfectionist when it comes to competing so that's just my take on it really.
