Goal(s)

Maintain the right lead canter for as long as possible.

Process

Start in a right lead canter. While maintaining this canter, begin a diagonal line from K to M, and jump the pole (it can be a jump, a cavaletti, or a ground pole). Upon reaching the marker, transition to a trot and turn just after passing P to go directly over these ground poles at a trot. They can be cavalettis, raised poles, or ground poles. Turn towards H at the marker and simultaneously pick up the right lead canter to approach the pole (which can also be a jump/cavaletti/ground pole) and finally maintain the canter after the pole.
BAS = Ground Pole
Here, I used the example of the right lead canter, but this exercise can be done on both reins and at all gaits; you just need to adjust the modules and distances.

Difficulties

- Maintaining a steady canter on the correct lead even at the start of the diagonal and varying the gaits
- Focusing on all the information simultaneously
