Lots of good advice already on here, but it sounded to me like he threw a CobStrop because he thought he was being diddled out of a meal! Your plan sounds good. I always bring mine in for a tiny handful of feed and a nibble of hay before work, so they think they've had something.

A hungry cob (or one that reckons it's missed out on some food, somewhere) is generally not the most co-operative of beasts..

Yes, this exactly! He was furious and thought he was being treated very, VERY unjustly. I was just a bit taken aback that he carried it on under saddle and that I couldnt stop him. But on reflection I was riding like a pleb! He was a very pleasant young man this evening
