Hello,
When i bought ginny she was sold as green which she is. She was previously trained to trap but was stopped for some reason. Shes is a genrally incredibly nervous horse and only really trusts me. In the school she rushes everything and will wind herself up canter on the spot etc. I took her to my local riding school today as im good friends with the owner, and a few knowlegable horsey people were there. For months i couldnt work out where her problems came from but one of the ladys came to the conclusions that as she was taught to trap she was taught to just go continueusly so everything she does with schooling she does at a fast pace. I have totaly lost my confidence schooling, hacking her im fine as shes well behaved. I feel so sorry for her as i think she has had a really tough life before. They think with correct schooling and teaching her how to do things she will make a great pony. Has any one had a troubled horse schooled succesfully, and is there any advice you can give. Thanks
