Working with the owner and a young stallion who has a tendency to lean on the inside shoulder

In this video I’m working with the owner and a young stallion who has a tendency to lean on the inside shoulder through the canter transition to the left either resulting in picking up the wrong lead, running in the trot before cantering or hopping into the canter.

When it comes to the leading leg, the shoulder must be lifted, so I ask the rider to half halt the outside rein keeping the horse balancing on the outside shoulder and elevate the inside rein which allows the weight to be lifted off that shoulder and for the horse to transition canter much easier.

This is a very typical problem for a lot of riders and the shoulder fore allows your to solve the issue.
