Ouch! Been there, done that! You have my sympathies. One thing that may
be encouraging to you is that my horse who is usually the worst beast on the
first half of a ride is just magic to ride on the second half. There is
something about the lunch break that makes the hysteria subside. This is
really the only reason I still have this horse. (When he's good, he's very
very good and when he's bad he's horrid).
I hope you and your boy work it out!
