As he is then on the point of raising the left, he will begin with it, and, as soon as the rider turns him to the left, will immediately begin the stride. For it is natural for the horse to lead with the right when turned to the right and with the left when turned to the left.[*]

The exercise that we recommend is the one called the ring,[*] since it accustoms the horse to turn on both jaws. It is also well to change the exercise,[*] in order that both jaws may be equally practised on each side of the exercise.[*]
