Atfer speaking to the physio about my green 6yr old TBX she said carry on with his eggbutt snaffle as what hes doing is because he is green and not because hes being naughty.
So, riding on monday with 3 other horses in the school and horse is napping like theres no tomorrow, went into canter on a 15m circle nice and collected, saw a horse coming along the centre line and he goes for them!
i had NO control! he totally ignored my leg so i pulled his head in the oppisit direction out of pure desperation, even with his head bent at a 90% angle he was still going for them, got him back in the direction i wanted him in and he goes bronking off....
Jumping, we have just started to teach him to jump, if there is a horse on the oppisit side of the jump he totally runs away with me if i try and stop he goes faster, i just kept cantering in circles to slow him down.
today one other horse in school, we were both doing a 10m circle and as we pasted each other i was heading for the fence, trying to turn him left, again ignored my leg and i had to let him go right as he practally ran in to the fence.
out hacking is the same story if we go any faster than a walk, even stopping at junctions he tosses his head in the air and leans against me.
i know hes still learning so i dont want to gadget him up, but i am out of control and hes taking the piss out of me.
please help
