re-schooling for XC

[sueandtoto]

My daughters pony gets all wound up when we go XC schooling with PC and ends up tanking off after jumps, he's not very brave and usually runs out a few times before going over, this is knocking her (and our's!) confidence , he was better when we went alone,but she would like to be able to go in company,he is in a cheltenham gag and cavesson noseband and has had back,teeth ect checked , is it possible to re-train our pony not to do this and would it be better to send him to a trainer or would a trainer come XC with us? sorry it's long! we are in leicestershire if anyone can help??

We love Nigel Taylor at Aston le Walls which may not be too far from you. He has loads of experience and talks sense bluntly.If you are in Atherstone PC you may know my daughter Claire who is a B test examiner and holds pc A, pm me if you need help and maybe she could meet you at a UK chasers course and help.Amelia is also brilliant and I am sure able to help
