Question in title really.Do you feel that an average 5yo is mature enough to start something like endurance riding or training for pleasure rides at a trot/canter speed? How much trot and canter do you do on an average ride and how often do you ride for at this age? Is it acceptable to have youngsters cantering or trotting for any distance or do you prefer to wait, and if so until what age?Do you ride a young horse every day or only a few times a week? Do you think harder/faster work at this age is more likely to increase the risk of splints or tendon injuries etc than if left until the horse is older?No real reason for the questions other than interest in what everyone else is doing!

Would you do hunting/endurance with a 5yo?
