I do not believe that a few minutes - 5 minutes loose, 5 minutes "see the
ice with a rider", 5 minutes competing (with another 5 minutes if the
horse is in a final) once a year or less will cause long term dmage in a
fit horse.

Compiled by Martin Diggle:
Canter is the most complex of the schooled gaits, and, when carried out
well, the most expressive and impressive. It is the gait from which, in its
finished form, complex movements such as tempi changes, zigzags, and
pirouettes are produced.
Because of its complexity
