Typical isn't it! One of my horses has been off for 6 months and is just coming back in to work. Go out to lunge my main horse today and she really doesn't look right behind. She looks fine in the field, was fine in trot but in canter she started what looked like bunny hopping on her hind. After a few strides I pulled her up and didn't do anymore with her so not sure really if she was just being daft or not but don't want to risk it. It was rather scarey as it kinda looked like what Barbaro was doing after he broke down on the track. Pulled her up, checked her over, she looks fine in walk. Turned her out, she trotted away, dropped and had a roll and getting up wasn't a problem. Maybe I just panic too much? Will see how she is tomorrow.

Maybe I just panic too much!
