Stiff?

Had a lease ride yesterday evening, mare was really good for the most part.

She had a really great canter to the right (no more crazy rushing canter!) so that was good. She had a nice forward trot and we worked on leg yielding a bit. She's wonderful!

I love this mare!!!

On the left lead though, she really didn't want to pick up the canter to the left. Pinned her ears and flicked her head around, she did get it after a couple tries and we just cantered half the arena. She was fine at the canter, so I'm guessing she's just a bit stiff from the show?
She also got vaccinated (for strangles I think) Saturday after the show, so it could be that too.
Hopefully she's feeling better on Tuesday.
