So you passed the test! 

 

My mare does that when she's bored too, but I just growl at her and she quits.  So like she's really, really scared, huh!!!

Boredom!
I have a girl friend who's horse spooks at rocks.  Now we live in NW New Mexico where the entire country is made of rocks piled on rocks so there are lots of opportunities to spook.  She thinks it is kind of funny and even contributes to it herself at times by pointing out a rock and saying "I know he is going to spook at that".

So one day, my horse decided that he was bored on the ride - we were not going fast enough or something, so he decide to try that little trick.  I was not amused.  One or two good whacks with a crop made him decide that maybe that wasn't as much fun as he thought.  I just don't want a horse who is going to spook at something stupid like that all the time.
