    How to spark up a lazy horse.

    Same out hacking, same flat work (although is more forward on a fun ride) , school is perfect, work level been the last for the past year, he is willing just very slow reactions and then reacts then just goes back to the same ways as before after a couple of strides, no reaction to being tacked...
