He gets nafs general min & vit supplement. Hes not on or had any probiotic. I have had him now for 12 months and he is just a generally laid back sort of fella. Hes had his teeth, saddle etc etc all checked. I'm as certain as I can be that there is nothing physcial going on, as when in the correct frame of mind my instructor can have him going like a dream.

Do you hack him out he might need a change in routine to liven him up a little. Dont forget you can school hacking out, try a little leg yielding to get him to listen. Also turns on the forehands will help engage that bottom and mean it is easier for him to use his engine.
A sharp little reminder of the whip will also help to back up your leg. Let him shoot forwards as that is what you want him to do and then when you next ask with your leg his should respond better.
Hope that helps

All hes done for the last 12 months is hack really, schooling maybe once a week - its only in the last month or so that we have increased the work load a bit.
A lot of things you and others have suggested we are already doing, so at least I know I am along the right track.
Thank you. Think I might discuss feeding with YO again tonight. Anybody any suggestions?
