How to get the most out of the crazy horse:
After writing a previous article some time ago, detailing how riders can get the most out of their lazy horses, I had the time to reflect on just how many different types of horses I’ve come across throughout my life so far. Having owned, loaned and ridden quite a large variety of horses, I know all too well how unique each horse can be. Following the article focused on the horses with a steadier outlook on life, who’d rather sleep in the sunshine than go for a ride, I turned my attention to the other end of the spectrum.
Yes, I’m talking about the so-called “crazy horse”. We’ve all met them (and most of us have looked on in terror when they charge towards a jump with their rider hanging on for dear life!) and most of us have thought at some point how hard (and downright scary) it must be to ride such a hyperactive horse!
