Hi- He's such a beautiful horse! My question is that when my horse does the stretch, he tends to overflex and go behind the verticle. If I ask for more forward to try to pop his nose forward, he rushes and falls on the forehand. Not sure if the behind the vertical is typical for just learning to do the stretch and the nose forward will come as he gets stronger, or if that's a habit that needs to be nipped in the bud. Thanks for any advice!
Doing this tomorrow. Thank you 🙏

It may help your horse if you would have changed diagonals much sooner when you went from left rein to right rein.
