That sounds great Erin.  I am remembering Linda's exercise with counting steps and doing transitions, the horse DOES learn to count.   I think this exercise could really focus a horse, because one he's learned it, it is pretty hard wired to count those steps....and that would indeed help focus him.

Horses have amazing memories (of both good and bad things).

Thanks!  That sounds like a great exercise.
