thought we was there

until today, well i dont know if you know but i moved honey yards just after christmas as old yard had no turnout and honey was getting unsafe to ride because she had all the energy built up in side
any way been concentrtion on schooling, getting brakes, going from the leg and bending and improving canter work only hacked about 3 times

any way rode out myself SOLO for first time since she ran off with me over the roads at old yard (she stopped when she got home) i was fine but i was only out for 10 mins thought id start of short then today i rode out with sis i lead her then i got on and omg i had nno cinfidence at all there was loads of kids playing ball and honey was alert looking and jumping and i was making things worse, as ive just got that thought in the back of my head that shes going to bolt and i wont be able to pull her up. any way point to this thread is how do i get the feeling and thought away

oh yes how do i make my siggi smaller too, ive resized it on photobucket but it still huge

only time will help you get over the bolt incident, you're doing the right thing with short rides to begin with, little and often is the best way, it will take time to build up your trust in her again and gradually you;ll get there, am presuming its nothing to do with tack/back etc etc as haven't read your other posts about the incident.

ye tack, teeth and back have all been checked so thats not a problem. shes a saint and if you saw he walking down the street youd think shed be the most unlinckly pony to do anything, but when she wants to go shes off lol i try turn a circle but she just puts her head to one side and goes so i lack trust and find it sooo hard

feel like a novice again, thankyou for your reasurance its much appreaciated

Bolting is a hard thing to get over so don't be too hard on yourself. Build it up slowly and make sure u go out with people on steady horses - also try getting someone else to ride her out as well so u can see what she'e like. Good luck
