Thanks for all the advice on posting!

Now my next problem may be corrected after I learn how to post correctly or it
may not, Anyway here it is..
My agressive ayrab endurance horse to be (maybe) gets so excited that he hops.
This looks like he's kind of limping or skipping but he's definately not lame and
quits after he calms down or further into the ride.
What worries me tho is He's not yet in prime condition but He's got a tremendous
amount of stamina and when he get's in condition if I don't find a solution to
this problem he could hop/skip for 100's of miles.
If I push him into a trot or gallop he's difficult to control as he leans on the
bit to try to break away.

Any Ideas?
