They show a wonderful walk in their break, and Cesar encourages the rider to let him swing and stretch. The canter is done on a 20 meter circle and shows great obedience and steadiness. They incorporate many up and down transitions with lengthenings on the open side of the circle. Cesar instructs him to ask for the depart when he feels the bend is correct. On the long sides they position shoulder fore. Considering how young he is, they keep the work short and give him more breaks and after working the canter in both directions they give him a stretchy trot with connection and activity.
