as soon as i got on i felt better in terms of my riding position, so spent time thinking about that.
also thinking about whether i could feel which diagonal i was on in trot, when we got to it.
and some time getting molly to listen to the leg - turns on the forehand, which she does wonderfully in hand when i don't want one!
by the end she was doing that really nicely left, but not so nicely right (now there's a surprise!)

Try just thinking about you the next time when you go right. Concentrate on your own evenness and whether your body is "riding to the right." Just ignore Molly.
Sounds strange, but it might work. I have always found that when I focus on my aids rather then the horse's response, I get a much better answer.
Still, you are making great progress. If people who don't ride ever understood how complicated it all is, they would wonder why the heck we try it at all. *G*
Hope you are having good weather. We all deserve a break.
