OK some of you know Jess story already but the basics are, she is 14hh NF X Cob 5 year old. I have had trouble with her rearing and running off, even jumping out my school with me. I took her to Twin Oaks as a boot camp style, and she was as good as gold, i braught her home with the ladys help and she was her true self - a nightmare, rearing etc. Well she got better and started to behave better and nicely on her bit too.
Well yesterday she was a saint for about 15mins then started running off in every direction. I got on her for my lesson (after lunging 10mins first) and i got off in 5 mins! I just could hold onto her and she scares me something stupid. My instructor rode her for the rest of my lesson.
Now i am turning jess away at the end of the month as i have an endurance ride to do on the 30th and know this will end on a good note.
Any advice on how to get my confidence back on her??
