Hi all,
I don't post that often but hope to pick your brains for ideas.
Planning for the new season with my 7yr old Connie. Thinking about our dressage, I decided to read back through our test sheets and the reacurring comment from judges is that he's a promising little horse but needs to be more forward, particularly in trot.
He's a really spooky so and so which obviously doesn't help, he also has the concentration span of a goldfish, but at home he's so active and forward (but not always attentive) I'm at a loss as to why he seems to go within himself and go 'backwards' at shows.
Any hints on how to bring his 'at home' attitude to parties would be appreciated.
He's a funny old sole as with our jumping he won't jump at home (that well) but is fine at shows, so this considered as it makes no sense I'm fully happy for people to suggest its me or a prob of mine.
Thanks all xx
