H is fine on the right rein,but on the left he has learnt the neat trick of dropping behind the bridle every other stride causing a nodding like action(if that best describes it?)
I have tried riding him really well into the contact,holding reins firmly so that when he does it there is nothing for him to drop behind,even put him back in a cavesson today to see if it helped(hell no,he murdered my arms crossing his jaw,i won in the end and he gave in and softened,he is a stubborn ass when he wants to be,lol,however my arms felt like lead

Just bloody frustrating as his right rein is shite not the left and he is trotting beautifully on the right??

All his checks have been done,just think he has found a way to avoid working properly into the contact on that particular rein and i have no idea how to stop it??
Any advice be appreciated,thanx in advance for reading
