Horse at work with a screw loose!!
I've managed to stay on it 3 times now, where both times i should have come off, but it's starting to worry me!
See, it's not like your average silly TB, in that you never know what it's going to do!!
I'm perfectly happy on naughty horses, as long as i vaguely know what they might do, racehorses are usually predictable, ie they whip round/buck/spook etc...
But this horse is different!!!
For a start, he has smashed his head up twice in a short time, hard enough to fracture bones in his face! Now whatever way you look at it, that surely isn't right?!?!?! (first time was in his stable, the second was out in the field on his own, no one knows exactly how he did it).
He's been back in work a while, and is just about to start galloping.. my face is starting to look like this
The last time he tried to kill me, he stuck his head between his knees and rodeo'd for England, i've pulled muscles trying to get his head back up, but i managed it, and all was well.. the time before that, he stood bolt upright for what seemed like 5min, while he waved to his friends.. and the time before that he stoped and spun round quicker than you could think what your own name was!
Staying on isn't the problem, it's me nerves that are.
Any tips for coping with a freak??
