So I have been riding a little while and am very comfortable in a riding school environment. School or hacking.., so I thought I had conquered the nerves and have taken on a loan horse... Seems suitable .. Owner is of similar experience. First solo hack - perfect and I'm beaming. So a couple of hacks in and spooky horse!!!! Then I'm spooking!!!! He just plants , I'm kick kick kick and he starts backing up. Whip whip a get on, still prancing this is in the road!!! I'm freaking and I jump off lead him in hand and then jump back on ... More of the same!? I get back to yard freaked and owner is like he has never done this... Get back on I will walk out with you ... All good I return poor thing is running behind us. Again next day ... Repeat again I'm freaking!? Owner is very weak and can't hold her horse well but he does not fight her. I like his head up and I fight him for this... Should I stop? Should I give up and perhaps return to my safe school environment?
