I do slow work everyday, not just if my horse has issues. Lots of issues can be PREVENTED andΒ you can really sharpen a horse by just walking the pattern. Slow work doesn't even need to be on the barrels. There are plenty of drills that don't even require barrels that will help you on the pattern. JMO.Β 

Same here. I consider my horse finished, but he still gets some anxiety going to the first barrel. I trot the pattern 2-4 times a week depending on our schedule and that has made a huge difference with him. I never lope or run him at home anymore. Trotting to and walking around the barrels. He is also one that needs to have consistency. I have to ride him in the same bit I run and never switch it up otherwise he gets lost. He need constant structure.
