Hi everyone,
So I have a 6year old tb mare and she's coming along great. Now on the lunge she is brilliant, but only on the left rein.
I lunge about 3times a week to help her transitions from trot to canter and helping with her balance. Now she is fantastic on the left rein walk trot and canter, go to lunge on the left and as soon as you have changed the line over and go to step away she will run really quickly around you in small circles, she will then rear (big and up vertical) and she will buck and tries to snatch the lunge line from you.
Now today she was like it she went about 6ft in the air, everytime I lunge she will not go on this rein.
Now I no in her racing career everything was done on the left, being led, tacked up etc so I started leading her on the right and shell put you on her left side. I'm just finding it difficult to get her to even walk a couple of strides on her right rein.
Right rein is also difficult when ridden she finds it hard to bend.
I ordered a Pessoa last night so I'm helping this will help but does anyone have any lunging tips to try and get her on this right rein?
She moves beautifully on the left rein just this one is so hard!
Thank you in advance!
