After being thrown off my tb twice in the last three times of riding him i believe there is a problem somewhere.... Up till the last few weeks ago he was an angel, could be abit quirky at times but nothing serious. Then he started that he wouldn't hack out without napping for england and now he won't school without leaping, bucking and rearing. And he means it serious he leaps, spins, bucks and goes up vertical. (Including smacking me in the face yesterday with his neck!!)

So... i believe its pain related for it to come on so suddenly!! I was wondering if anyone could recommend any decent saddle fitters in the South Yorkshire area? All the ones i know of will have wanted me to have bought his saddle off them which i didn't to even look at it.

Or any other ideas for his change of behaviour? I'm going to go through everything saddle first, then teeth, then back (although he had physio not long ago).
 
if saddle is causing pain it would be worth getting a back person out first to ensure he's not tight still before you try new saddles or he could react to saddles in general from remembered pain....
can't help you with saddlers though but feel your pain - i had some bad experiences with saddlers and now only go with a guy who does M2M whom i trust 110% - alas he's up here thoguh so too far for you.
