Here's the short story...My 10 yr old TB...had him for 3 years...in the entire time I have had him I have only seen him refuse a fence maybe 4 times...He is very brave...will jump a 3'6" stone wall without batting an eye. My daughter has been doing evening with him. Is switching to jumpers...been doing small shows no higher than 3'6"...always in the ribbons...

So...last night we go to the trainers for a lesson (new trainer- new barn but in general Flash doesn’t care about new places) He's fine on the flat...very relaxed etc.

Start to jump...and he flat out refuses the first fence...regular little vertical...in the next 15 minutes. He only went over one fence...dead stop at everything...started sucking back 20 feet away. Then planted right in front...

I have no idea what is going on...never seen him do anything like this...Any ideas...what should we do next? I am going to hop on him tonight...I ride very differently from my daughter...and we'll see how he is with me. At home.
