Note:
☞
The
canter
is
a
thoroughly
artificial
pace
,
at
first
extremely
tiring
to
the
horse
,
and
generally
only
to
be
produced
in
him
by
the
restraint
of
a
powerful
bit
,
which
compels
him
to
throw
a
great
part
of
his
weight
on
his
haunches
. . .
There
is
so
great
a
variety
in
the
mode
adopted
by
different
horses
for
performing
the
canter
,
that
no
single
description
will
suffice
,
nor
indeed
is
it
easy
. . .
to
define
any
one
of
them
.
