Once a hunter...

I had a mobile ringtone, 'gone away', had a similar effect!

I did too...... forgot to put my phone on vibrate only when out riding....
Phone went off and suddenly found myself on a rather pingy eye-popping crabbing keen bean instead of the well behaved but a little sharp mare.
Took her the rest of the day to settle back down.
I never forgot again!

I'm planning on playing it when I'm on him. He's lovely, but likes to take an excessively leisurely approach to hacking

Let me know when, I'll pop over to film 😂
Dont do it till you have a decent trot and canter stretch in front.

Seriously, I'm sure he'll be fine, maybe might sharpen up when colder weather tho?

He's into energy conservation. Slow out, faster home!
Much livelier when we take him to fun places, so we plan on regular adventures
 
Whenever I hear that I think of the James Heriot episode when they had the hunt come round to give the horse final moments of happiness hearing the hounds..😓
 
Hmmm might record that on my phone for my next dressage outing. Needed a rocket up his backside today - impulsion may rock up if he thinks he's going hunting.
 
A crowd of us used to do a Boxinb Day ride round the Downs someone used to bring a hunting horn thank goodness if was always in a valley with large gates at the end
 
I used to play it to my boy on a hack out of season and it used to send him wild. Unfortunately it seems to have lost its affect now he’s not hunted for a few years and he’s older - either that or I’ve desensitised him to it by doing it too much! 🫣
