...and replaced him with a different one!
He had an easy day on Monday after comp on Sunday, then a day off yesterday. Now normally after a day off he is explosive, impossible to ride and unbelievably sharp. It is also very windy today so wasn't looking forward to our hack very much
BUT... from the instant I got on he was as chilled as a cucumber! Had a lovely hack with no spooks, and for the first time ever managed to hack home on a loose rein!!!!
(never even attempted this before as would have been down right stupid
)
He has now been on the Cool, calm and collected for 3 weeks and I am convinced it has had an affect, he has never been so quiet, think that is the first hack I have actually enjoyed on him
So if anyone's horse has suddenly started acting like a hooligan, then I think Ive got yours by mistake
