Over looked training principle #4. Training for wait is just as important as training for go. One indicator of a really, really broke horse is his willingness to wait patiently but attentively for the riders next signal. Instead of making his own decisions about when and where to move into or out of a maneuver, he accepts that the riders the one who calls the shots. This skill, like attention span, is one that has to be developed through deliberate training and lots of repetition. The hardest part about teaching a horse to stand and wait for new signals is having the patience to do it. The impatient rider can pretty much count on ending up with an impatient horse.
