Daily training inspiration
Develop the quality and rhythm of your lengthened trot strides
- Turn on to the quarter-line in trot and leg-yield to the track
- As you reach the track, ask for a few lengthened strides
- Think “bigger, but slower” to prevent rushing
- Rebalance before the corner. Repeat on both reins
