anything thats too hot gets less food, max turnout, polework sessions to give opportunity to express bucking tendencies without rider on board, before ridden work its lunged before riding, and when mounted its walked positively round the yard in circles and changes of direction, then onto the surface and straight into shoulder in twisting turning bending in walk and soon a brain is in same gear as me i move forward into a trot warm up.
i dont give anything time to think about sissing around i get on and go, so i can use all that lovely energy in a positive way and not let it become naughty habits,
i would never sit there letting the horse decide whos in charge, i make it quite clear what i want, then when its settled i back right off and allow the horse to show me what its its good at on the day and become the 80 20 per cent i want in a relationship with the horse, 80 the horse effort 20 me sitting there enjoying it
