[RC] question - RockinVR

Hi Ridecamp,

My daughter has a 3 year old Morab that seemed to try to tie up after a work out 2 days ago.
She gave her a normal 30 min workout,( lungeing, practicing changing gaits). Walk, trot, canter. Farrah would not canter, just acted like she didn't want to.   she has canter lots before. After about 20 minter of trying she finally cantered around 1 full circle, Marcy quit on a good note and stopped her.
Marcy noticed Farrah was moving very funny as she started to cool her off.  Called the trainer over and she said Farrah was tying up.
  This filly is turned out every other day in a 10 acre pasture and is worked almost every day for her normal training. She is not a show horse so she is not being pushed to perform. Her training period is usually about 30 min or so,
I have never has a horse tie up before and I am very concerned and kinda lost as to the cause.
Any thoughts?
Thanks
Lana
