They don’t (naturally) see the point in wasting their energy all at once. What if they had to run from something later? It’s just normal for them to not run if they don’t need to.

I can certainly tell if my favorite mount at the stable hasn’t been ridden all week because he gets out of breath after just one lap.

My horse constantly breaks to the trot, and these may help. I’ll be defenatly checking when I ride. 🙂 Although, it could be because she’s a tad lazy…

And, yes, tack and saddle fit is always a nessecity to check, and it also could be lack of correct training that causes this problem.
Thanks!

You should try going back and doing more groundwork exercises that get your horses feet moving. After that you just have to practice lots and lots of cantering and doing stuff like the cruising lesson in the Downunder Horsemanship Fundamentals series to get your horse cantering.
