I did a French degree but it's never occurred to me that I don't know any equine terms in French until today. I assume 'galop' isn't gallop as there's no way anyone could enter at at A in gallop and halt at X

Ha no "galop" is canter in dressage. Galop rassemble is collected canter.I did a French degree but it's never occurred to me that I don't know any equine terms in French until today. I assume 'galop' isn't gallop as there's no way anyone could enter at at A in gallop and halt at X
Lived and rode in Belgium for 25 years so seeing dressage tests in French is like putting on an old pair of slippers.

This confused me a bit when my daughter came back from riding, just before I started... I thought it very strange that French horses could only do walk, trot and gallop...
Galop means canter, and grand galop means gallop.
I now have a much wider equestrian vocabulary in French than in English.

Wasting my time successfully....
I have a daughter who would absolutely embrace a dressage test which involved entering at a gallop

Luckily whilst I am rubbish at speaking French, I can read it.

Can enter at gallop, no problem. halting at X might be an issue! ðŸŽ
