my 14hh shpis a nutter. Don't know why but he is. He is on calmer, which has helped greatly and is the best one, for us, out of all we have tried. We also use ear plugs, which help a lot again. He is not naughty, just hyper and tense, but when goes well, after 7 hours of riding in, he does really well, usually winning or t tope end of line
The problem is this pony is still crazy. It is not his feed as have tried lots of different solutions The main thing is that this pony takes hours (literally) to ride in and jogs and gets tense in his group work (yes it doesn't sound like much but after lots of calming down it is to us) It is not the rider, who is constantly yelled at to relax when she can't relax any more lol
Does anyone have a similar problem and does anybody have any ideas

Doodah, I had problems a couple of years ago with a fifteen hander and tried everything I could think of. Eventually I decided to try a horse whisperer - much to the amusement of my colleagues who still have hysterics over it now and again. I had good results and would definitely use one again.
