Poor you ((((HUGS)))) Is it worth lunging for 10 mins before you get on so he can be silly and get it out of his system before you get on?
PS great sig!

Poor u - def agree with Land_Girl abt the lunging to let him get over his 'hi-jinks'.

Aww, not nice. I'm not good with spooky or sharp horses, but my OH has taught me that whenever there is any sign of silliness to get them doing something. I have jump wings out in a line across the school and we bend and weave round them when my mare is feeling fresh.

Hope you're not too bruised x
