"At a canter" có canter là chạy nước kiệu -> cụm từ này nghĩa là một cách dễ dàng, không mất nhiều công sức.

Ví dụ
He should have won the race at a canter, but a mistake which he and the team accepted collectively cost the reigning world champion a sixth win in seven races.

It was a result that left Bruce a happy man: “After that terrible start, it would have been very easy for us to capitulate (đầu hàng). But instead, the best team won at a canter, it was total domination from us in the second half.

It came in a manner so comfortable you wondered why this had been billed as a marquee (lều to, màn che) clash, but for the second time in two days, Chris Green and his band of spinners stifled an opposition batting line-up, meaning the Warriors had just 110 to chase. A belligerent (phe tham chiến) half-century from Shimron Hetmyer ensured there'd be no drama of the kind that briefly imperiled his side yesterday, and the Warriors got there at a canter in the end.
