He gets turned out in the morning ATM as our ground is terrible but because of this every few months he gets turned out and stays out for a month or two at time where I live there isn't a lot of of ground people let you use in the winter so I don't really have a choice on this unless I travel...

He said he doesn't think it's that either I got his saddle checked just before Christmas so I'm at a lose good new is there is nothing physically wrong with him , one of the trainers suggested ear plugs and sponges on the check pieces as blinkers so gonna try that

Eye sight is fine back is good and teeth are fine so no idea why he is doing this :( x

That's great thank you ill try that :) hacking Oscar is not my idea of fun either charging down a hill because I fly is near him is not good. One thing I never mentioned was when Oscar was at his worst nervous wise he did a spook so bad he got me of and crushed every bone in my knee and I now...

That's great thanks tho I but short on arenas now as I stopped riding him in the out door cause he got so stressed and wound up it just wasn't worth it and started riding him in the indoor now I have to say it did work and he was starting to get a lot better but this spooking has started again...

he isnt unrideable he does have his really good days and is 110% in his stable. If it is his eyes at least then i would know why. Im concerned about my course of action if it isnt his eyes and how i go about preventing this.

once you had there eyes checked is there any treatment , or do you just have to get on with it? if its not his eyes have you any other ideas? Going to get his eyes checked ASAP

Mostly there an sometimes at the top end where the lane into the paddock is where there are trees either side of the lane and a walker at the end of it , very spooky paddock for young horses, but there are loads of hound horses about and very fiery competition horses at the yard and none of them...
