Pico

Time has flown, but I have been riding.  Today it was Pico - time to push him and push him and push him.  I was exhausted at the end of an hour.  We cantered for 10 or 15 minutes before he finally gave in and stopped running away.  The problem is that he doesn't relax his back, he just finally dumps everything and that means he trots instead of cantering while through in his back.  It's going to be awhile before he figures that out.
