This would be so as to not overwork any one animal. It is most noticeable in the scene when Una is driving the cart after Yvaine. When she is in the city, the pony has a white stripe all the way down its face; when it is galloping in the forest, it has two separate white spots on its face; and the pony that Tristan detaches from the cart and rides has one spot on its face. Also when Tristan detaches the pony, it only has on riding gear (a saddle and bridle), whereas earlier in the scene it only has on a harness for pulling the cart. 151479 In the scene showing Septimus swimming underneath the water after having dived through Capt. Shakespear's cabin window, you can see Septimus holding his fighting knife in his right hand. After a stroke or two he lets go of the knife and it doesn't sink. 148443 When Dunstan Thorn attempts to cut the enchanted chain off to free Una, in the close-up of his hand, both the chain and his knife are in his right hand. In the next wide shot, the chain is in his left hand.
