Thoroughbred rebreaking.

[SamanthaUK]

I know i've done this post before but I lost the post. Can anyone give me any detailed tips, training plans to follow.

They haven't been ridden in 4-5 years. They are thoroughbreds, 18 years young. They did used to hunt and be hacked out but they do buck and rear. So I will also be wanting tips to reduce/stop that.

Any other questions please ask below.

Thanks for helping!

I'd certainly make sure their teeth are checked, tack fits and they are in good health before you start. I find long-reining more useful than lunging and less stress on a very unfit horse.

Sorry for being stupid yesterday, but if they buck and rear it will be worse when they are fit and athletic Take it slow and don't feel bad if you get to a stage where they are just too much for you, it could happen and there's no shame in admitting it. Other thing if they haven't been properly re-schooled (hunting doesn't necessarily mean re-schooled) then they may still work in the way of taking up contact means go faster. Lots of hacking on a loose rein
