to win at a canter (W3)

Engl. "to win at a canter" = dt. "mühelos gewinnen", lautet in voller Länge "at a Canterbury pace, rate or trot" = "Im Canterbury-Tempo, Schritt oder Trab". Dies spielt darauf an, dass die Pilger, die sich auf dem Pferd auf den Weg zum Grab des Thomas Becket, dem 1170 ermordeten Erzbischof von Canterbury, machten, nur langsam ritten. Hierauf geht auch das Verb engl. "to canter" = "langsam reiten" zurück.
