A wonderful book to read is "The Complete Training of Horse and Rider" by Colonel Alois Podhajsky.   During WWII he  managed to save the horses with the help of General Patton. My Hungarian instructor who had been a Major in the Calvary gave me this book...my deepest gratitude goes out to him for teaching me the "art" of riding.
 
Circus (I think) was just a term meaning the horse was not trained using the principals of Classical Dressage...it was 1972 and I was just 14....this is just a kid's memory and am sorry I ever mentioned it. Dressage is just the french word for training.
