Devil hunni is back :/ after a nice peaceful winter of a saint of a horse I'm back with her playing up :( but I don't know why... I asked her to canter today in corner of school she reared took of then bucked until I came off, I got straight back up and smacked her once and got back on and showed who is boss, I just want to know why she is behaving this way, last summer when I first had her she was brilliant and infect she taught me to canter, now every time I ask she bucks :/ her back is fine, teeth not due yet and the o ly thing I can think of is saddle, see she has lost weight/muscle/top line in winter and I wad thinking it may be pinching her, and RI decided to tell me tonight she can see saddle moving up and down jn trot and canter!!! I use material girth so maybe it is rubbing her when she sweats ? As old owner used to use leather, please I just need answers!!!! ( we have saddle fitter coming soon) thanks :)
 
From what you've said, I'd sort the saddle before you ride her again. If its banging up & down in trot then even a saint of a horse would be uncomfortable.
