I ride Fit Racehorses for a living and God, I know the pain on a spiritual level LOL! You handled this amazingly! He's a strong cheeky lil pony, they're always more jazzed up coming home aren't they! You handled this fantastic and perfect, you were super calm and got him back under control quickly, be proud! If I could ever give some potentially lifesaving advice, Bridging the reins can be SUCH a lifesaver in a situation like this if it ever happens you're in a more dangerous area, near a road, near more trees where you can't turn etc, if I'm ever on a horse I know can be a strong lil twit I have my stirrups a hole or two shorter, bridge my reins if sh*t hits the fan, and just shorten em and anchor my hands down and leaaaan back, stick my legs way out in front of me standing up out of the irons to give me that extra leverage to pull back against them without having to resort to sawing their mouth. With the strongest racehorses here you'd have your stirrups up in your throat so high to have that extra pulling power but you don't need that much most likely! It unbalances you too, It works a treat with fit Racehorses to stop them hooking off you with, maybe it might work for you too! But we all have our own methods. Do what you know works for you two and you feel safe doing!

Thankyou so much! 100% Bridging the reins works, i don’t often do it as he doesn’t typically bolt, just was excitable this day🤣and i do also love a little buck or bronc here and there out of excitement, i hope he never loses his quirks😍xx

Thank you from one inexperienced rider to a very experienced rider. My mare, as a child, would bolt on me always when she was done and ready for the barn. My dad yelled at me to yank on the reins and when we got to the gate I would get off, slap on her neck with the reins and ride her back out. But once and only once did she ever lose me. And it was my fault. I was showing off to my friend. I got on her in a quarter mile lane. No bridle, no rope with a clipped mane. She took off with me and on the other end a closed gate. She stopped and dropped her head. I went over and flipped with the back of my head hitting the gate. After my head cleared I looked up, there was shadow and her colt dawn looking down at me. I got up and yelled at her. Both she and her colt flipped their heads and took off leaving me to walk all the way back to the barn. I never told my mom or dad, I knew I was wrong. But what made me realized how lucky I was, was the pasture they took off to was open and then she'd could have gone there and I could have been in serious danger. I knew in my heart there was a better way. I rode her bareback any chance I could, I guess that's where I got my seat. My dad said she was a gentle mare with a nonrider but watch out if you were experienced. She could stop on a dime if she wanted to. Those were my best memories.

I used to ride an ex-racehorse who was murder until you'd taken him on a good long flat out gallop first. I'd jump on, ride a short half mile farm track and turn into this huge wide open field then loosen up and literally let him go. He hit ludicrous speed in about 2 seconds and kept going until he ran out of puff and slowed himself down steadily. The difference in him afterwards was like hearing him sigh “Aaaahhh.. I feel better now. We going hacking then or what?” 😁

I know what you mean. The one I rode wasn't ridden regularly. Whenever I'd visit I would ride him in the paddock first. Walk and trot only till he worked up a sweat then I took him across the street behind my MIL house where I found a stretch of field and gave him a gallop. Then we would walk through the old orchard. Then cantor on that stretch again and walk back to the barn. The last time I rode him I had a hard time stopping him. I literally let him run into her house. Someone asked me why I didn't turn him. I couldn't risk him running across the busy road or back into an unfamiliar hay field due to ground hogs. This horse was getting in shape faster than I was. His talent was gallop to jump to stop. My inner thighs were bruised by the saddle humps. He needed to be ridden daily or taken to a race track and let run. Since I didn't own him I had to quit riding him.

Poor girl! I felt for you. When he started bolting and bucking I aImost panicked. But I agree with my fellow equestrians. You handled it really well.

I used to ride a horse called Hector (who sadly passed away a while back) and he once took off with me beyond control. First he skidded so I went flying and lost both of my stirrups and he just took off full speed with me holding on for dear life. I don’t know how I stayed on because there was a point where I could feel myself coming right out of the saddle. It is certainly scary when it happens but I guess that’s what we sign ourselves up for, being equestrians lol 😆👍

She didn't do it for very long and I was able to stay on thankfully lol. I never really found out why it happened, my guess was maybe something i didn't see spooked her or a horse fly bit her, I don't know, but she never did it again after that. All I know was it shook me for a minute lol. She was an amazing horse.

well ridden :) 😅😀 Wouldn't be half as much fun if they didn't do these things tho wouldn't it lol

Firstly, really well ridden. Of course, you know your pony better than anyone and have the right to decide how to handle any given situation. I would have handled differently though. This is no way a challenge, we all have our views on how to react to situations we are faced with, to each there own and as I said, you know your pony. However, it was clear that that pony wasn’t really comfortable from the start. The initial road work, tossing his head up and ears flat back, stop messing about fussing with his head and push on. It was a nice quiet road from what I could see, little to no traffic and clear line of sight for a good distance. Therefore, I would have made him trot on a decent pace to take his attention back and stop him looking and focusing on absolutely everything else but you. At the 5 min mark when he started getting fresh on the grass, push on hard, don’t fight trying to stop, it just makes them bounce higher and argue more. Then when he bolted, the ground looked good, it was flat, you could see a really good distance ahead of you so you could see there was nothing in front of you, you had loads of room, so again push him on really firmly. Don’t fight with him to stop (as stated, to me it looked perfectly safe to do so), let him run. Then, when he starts to back off by himself, that’s when you say NO!!! GO!!!! Push him on and make him keep going for as long as it’s safe to do so. Then, once he has settled, ask him to stop. That means, you have made the decision to stop, not him and it saves the argument. The stubbornness on the road towards the end, your reaction was amusement like it was a game. It was not at all, it was bordering on dangerous. Lucky it was a quiet road. On a busier road, would’ve been a hazard, endangering yourself and others. In that respect, you need to grow up

Nope! Dezy is just a sassy gelding🤣

My pony/horse (hes like slap bang in the middle -height wise) used to be like this, but then i can kinda excuse him as he did go from carriage pony to field pony for 2 ish years to being riding pony.. Plus hes got some welsh somewhere lol And because i couldnt ride everyday or everyweek, he was mental, as he thrives on work(yet he hates doing work?) So instead of me being in pain each time, i "hired" a professional to ride him atleast once a week- Been nearly 2 years and he basically just plods about, unless its in a school(because obviously hes going to die)

Oh #!?% no…. I say that a lot when I ride.

That happened to me and i came off bruised and aching at grand age of 52. Now im cautious about going back to where it happened. It was totally out of character for my boy so have no idea why this happened. He galloped the field several times and i couldnt get him to stop, headed home all sweaty. When i made it back home i got back on him and worked him. Any suggestions greatly appreciated x

I know that many people who own and ride horses chirp, cluck or talk as their way of delivering a command to a horse. The reason I posted my comment is to make people aware that it is improper to do the clicking etc. when you are riding in shows or with other riders you don’t usually ride with because it may cause their horse to move when they are not ready. This is something I learned years ago when I learn how to ride. It’s no worse then if I saiid make sure you walk your horse after your ride to cool it off or make sure you clean under the hooves to ensure there are no debris in the grooves. Well enjoy your horse they make great friends.
