Progressive Dressage tests for training youngsters...

Fluffy Bunny, apparently
I didnt really know what to name this thread! :rolleyes:
I have a young horse to ride - around 5 yrs old.
He is working in a good shape and is very athletic. I havent sat on him yet so I cant tell you any more. Once Ive ridden him I will know more about his way of going and how progressed he is.
But I thought it would be fun if, whilst Im working with him, we worked on some dressage tests.
So basically I want to know of good tests that a relatively green horse can do, getting progressively more difficult, or any that you know that you like or find useful.
He can walk, trot and canter both reins, and I imagine has a degree of shortening and lengthening. (once more I can give more info when Ive ridden him).
I want to start fairly easy and then try and push him a little to see what he can do (without frazzling his brain). I just think it would be good to have a little structure and work on things to improve certain aspects, or try new things.
If you cant give me any could you point me in the direction of where to find some?
Thanks (as usual!)
Jo
