I've just started doing some more ground work again as its too s**te to ride  Undecided  and I've just noticed that I am loosing the quarters a bit.   Probably because we have been working the travers and giravolta, but I'm notice this drift on the circle too.  Probably also not helping that I am working in an open field......... any tips for regaining the quarters so they don't swing away?

You could work from the outside, or maybe use a little more outside rein/have less bend?!?!
