But I'm no DQ! Is there a measurable way to determine if a trot is working, 
extended, or otherwise?



Maybe someone who rides dressage can answer this more accurately, but eons 
ago when I was a lower level dressage rider, I think I learned that in the 
various type of trots the cadance remains the same but the length of the 
stride changes.  If that was correct, then an extendd trot would have a 
longer stride than a working trot.  That longer stride is also associated 
with the resulting suspension.

Or my memory is shot and it was just one instructor's opinion.
