I feel that my horse ahs now moved up in the stakes and is now ready to be considered as a knobber. Especially after his antics today.
Ok i know he is an ex racehorse but really todays schooling session went along the lines of...ask for walk= canter sideways, dont use leg but cluck to get trot = leap 3ft in the air throw head as high as possible with martingale and canter off down the school and refuse to stop when asked.
Then he does eventually stop and we walk for a few mins then que previous canter off when blocked from going forwards leap around, snort, sidewind across school, spin, drop shoulder...infact anything which may allow him to escape and canter off!! Result- got off lunged him in canter for 10mins until he wanted to stop then kept him going, got back on and oh what a surprise the b*gger worked ok...not his best but we got walk, trot and circles!!
Before anyone asks there is nothing wrong with him other than he is arsey TB who apparently needs to go for a good long gallop and blow some energy...i will await the arrival of my stupid friend on wednesday to have that pleasure until i know he will stop i wont do it!!
