8yo old daughter is keen on mounted games. Her pony is 16 and a schoolmaster type although games are new to him. He is a little on the big side(12.2hh) but he is not a strong pony. The only issue we have is during the games. She is a novice and her team are doing games in trot or slow canter. Her pony is ok with the equipment but will throw a buck if she attempts to canter. The only other time he has done this is during the lap of honour at showjumping, so I do think it may be excitement, but I would like to see it nipped in the bud.....
