I was always of the opinion that horses that galloped blindly into fences were somewhat stressed and anxious and wanted to get it over with. However I have recently started jumping my youngster and she has no physical problems, everything has been checked etc and she's been brought on slowly and sensibly, well schooled... however she really flings herself at fences. Working at slowing her down by doing some pole work but I'm just wondering why do they gallop into fences? Can she just be enjoying herself?
eta I realise this may be a stupid question! If they do enjoy it though then why?
