Just a random question that popped into my head ... is there a difference in what you are trying to achieve when schooling a horse for showing & for dressage? Have occasionally read comments in H&H to the effect that a show horse was going nicely but not like a dressage horse (eg I think - but may be wrong - when Lucinda Green rode Robocob).
Would have thought that you would be trying to achieve the same thing ie balance, lightness, obedience etc no matter how you were going to compete ? ... but then I know nothing whatsoever about showing
(and not very much about dressage
)
