[RC] the old "drop and spin" arrghhh! - Ed Kilpatricki have found that a lot of lateral flexion work does very well for this type of horse. stop and flex in both directions every time the horse spooks. do it consistently. it teaches the horse to relax, and has the added benefit of keeping the head and neck more supple. i have taken the big spook out of a lot of horses by doing this. if you would like info about how to do this, email me, whytrotfarmsatyahoodotcom cowboy ed
