Brought Monty in from the field today.

Thought I would update after Thursdays incident for anyone interested. I spoke to my instructor this morning and she suggested and let me borrow a chiffney bit, its one with keys on like a breaking bit. I brought him in this afternoon with the head collar and chiffney, he went to mess about in the same place as last time and went to go up but once I reminded him he had a head collar and chiffney (just a gentle reminder) he decided not to go up like last time and then came in ok, I groomed him, did a bit of groundwork - moving him over, back etc which he did fine as usual and then led him back out, he was also good going out. We did bring him in with my mum’s mare today, I will bring him in with another a few times and then try bringing him on his own.
I did lead him in and out wearing my body protector, hat and gloves for safety, still achy from last time.

I do hope he continues to be good, I was planning on getting on him to start backing him but want to put a stop to the rearing first.
