I think tripping at the trot and difficulty cantering go hand in hand with
some Fjords. I attribute it to conformation issues, and the type of mover you
have, although I am sure some would argue that point. I think you have to
have someone knowledgeable evaluate your horse as a riding prospect and if
you decide to use him that way, be prepared for extra work in keeping him
balanced and off his forehand as he becomes trained. One of my Fjords is like
this and it can get better, but it is always an issue and he has had some bad
trips that real jerk the rider's neck, so be careful!
