Colby Millberg: not your problem at all some horses are trained that way. from now on try riding on the inside and using spurs to give yo a bit more pressure on the outside. if he still insists on going to the rail line up cones on the rail so he cant move over
Daren Ventrice: Don't be a wussy, when he gets you near the rail, take your outside rain and yank his head to the rail and reverse him, do it every time he gets close to the rail and he will soon stop doing it. Or even better get a pair of spurs and when he leaks toward the rail let him run into a sharp spur.
Ira Porietis: When ever I find my horse doing that I just take that whip between his shoulder and the wall and flap it around a bunch until he moves off of it. It's not hurting him just making a ton of noise and annoying him.
Janeen Perona: Your horse is testing you. You need to stop riding on the rail for a while, period. Don't let him get within 10 feet of the rail when you are ridi! ng. Keep your eyes up, and choose a track that is about 10 feet from the rail and follow that. A lot of horses will use the rail to either "scrape" thier riders because they are testing or they are using it for thier own balance. It is easier for a horse to move up next to the fence because they only have to balance on one side. Also, start doing more work in the middle of the arena. Do circles and patterns to get your horse used to moving off of your leg better. You can work on "counter bending", where you bend your horse's head one direction and ask him to walk the other direction, so basically asking him to have his head to the outside of the circle, and then switch directions in the circle and bend the head the other way. Do diagonal lines across the center of the arena and figure eights as well as serpentine's. Once you have your horse moving off of your leg in the center of the arena doing pattern work, start back on the rail and keep him 10 feet off of it...if! he starts trying to crowd you again, move back to the center ! of the arena. It will be a process, but you need to get your horse moving off of your leg better to really fix the problem....Show more
Roni Kurz: Two things come to mind:1. The horse may not be trained to move away from pressure, but instead uses the natural instinct of moving =into= pressure. Ground training might help. How does he work with pressure on the ground?2. Your seat may be incorrect, with collapsed hip.
Gus Leiby: It is a common problem. First of all, there should be no nails etc sticking out of anything that a horse can get near!!It is a bit of a lack of confidence that causes this. Carry a schooling whip in the outside hand and if he starts to "rub" against the wall, give him a reminder with it, as well as leg aids, and then take him off the track onto a circle....Show more
Joellen Zorrilla: Well, I probably assume that you're on the rail quite a lot. Instead of following the wall in the oval/ circle your entire ride. Mix it up! Start by ! NEVER riding on the wall. Add circles, figure 8's, ride 10 feet away from the wall in a STRAIGHT line. Your horse is relying on his/ her own balance on the wall. He also isn't respecting your outside leg. But in a problem like this, you can help but working out of his comfort zone and keeping the ride less predictable. Good luck :)
Germaine Tieken: Start by riding off the rail like half meter away and circles etc. also you need to teach him to move away from your leg
Booker Moros: It seems to me that alot of the solutions to this question have sterotyped persons within the enterprise. It's horrible news, all of it! The horses demise and the fact that it's going to slowly spoil the enterprise as it has in Australia. Jumps racing is only allowed in 2 Australian states and except the loss of life stats are saved down and making a bet and attendance up than it'll get canned all together. And fortunately the industry is doing all it may to preserve the sport going. A! n global investigation into the sport desires to be achieved, to make i! t safer! There are alot of causes that have an effect on the game, breeding, tracks, jumps etc. As we are all going through the equal fate if anything isnt accomplished! Sadly there are fairly just a few bad eggs within the industry that do do it interested in the greed, however there are too many individuals worried that do love horses and the sport to paint the whole enterprise with that brush!! I've labored in the industry for a reasonable at the same time now and cant consider of any person in distinctive i do know that's doing it for the greed, it fees strategy to much cash!!! We like horses and we like racing! Also its now not "greed" that is pronouncing this but as a rule it isn't commercially justifiable to keep a horse with a broken leg, and as harsh as that sounds that's how the enterprise works. It does work with cash and well we cant have horses sitting in paddocks doing nothing and we cant continually put a horse ready where they can reside life like that! Some! humans could consider these comments are hypocritical however its difficult to real realize except you're employed on this industry, and that i discovered that out myself....Show more
Antone Youla: You need to put pressure on your outside leg. Keep your horse with an inside bend and look at the path that you want them to head down. Practice only going 1 ft off the rail. Don't get any closer. Practice circles too!
