[RC] [Guest] Horse wants to be first - Ridecamp Moderator

Kathie Duggan Katdandu@xxxxxxxxxxx
When I take my 7 yo Arab gelding out on the trail either alone or with two/three other horses he is very good. But, if there are more horses, say at a pleasure ride, he wants to pass every horse. When I don't let him, he rears, goes sideways, jigs, pops up etc. Eventually I want this guy for endurance but I don't want him like this or he'll tire himself out and/or injure himself. Any advise on how to break this attitude? I don't mind him being strong but taking a tantrum everytime is not okay.


Thanks,
Kathie
