Dressage Question and Canter Query

[lucemoose]

Ooh that sounded quite poetic..
I have a RC stressage test tomo, pony is loaded up with magnesium calmer but what can I wear, neck wise? I normally SJ in just the dog collar and a navy jacket, and on previous occasions Ive worn a tweed jacket and a pale blue striped stock. Is that ok or can I just wear the dogcollar??
Also, beasty has started insisting cantering 'quarters in' on the right rein, I cannot for the life of me make him straight. He has phsyio next week b/c am sure it needs to be checked. Any riddens suggestions please?

Tweed jacket and stock is fine for RC dressage. Youd probably get away with dog collar and jacket too!!
Make sure you dont leave boots on horse.
And make sure your hat is legal for RC. Right standards(should be in schedule) and Must have 3 point fixing.

Re Cantering- try cantering with a bit of shoulder in/fore.
