kicking out

["Terri O." <trinity_oaks@yahoo.com>]

You all have been so good to help me with things in
the past that I am asking for advise again.  I have a
horse, 4 years old, that in group situations kicks out
at other horses.  It is getting annoying and
dangerous, in my opinion. She pins her ears back
almost constantly at other horses and kicks at them. 
We do a lot of riding with friends and this should not
be happening. I don't want to just put a ribbon on her
tail and not worry about it, I want to solve it.  She
is the lowest on our horse pecking order, and
sometimes I think she has as chip on her shoulder.
That's what it looks like.  My husbands horse (the
first in pecking order) got kicked a couple of times
yesterday by her while stopped in a group. It's not
just him, it seems to be all horses.  She barely makes
contact, but I'm afraid for horses and riders in the
future.  Suggestions?  Thanx - Terri  P.S. She has
NEVER offered to kick at humans
