Lovely horse with active, scopey gaits. Work on balance going right so that horse stays yielding to rider's inside leg and flexed to the outside. In walk horse needs to stay with poll as highest point in MW. In FW horse needs to reach through his back more and stretch forward and down and swing through his back.
