Answer
Hi Melanie,

Thorobreds were and are bred to run. Even those that never see a race track have the genes to run, run, run.  In order to train or re-train a Thorobred, one must have much knowledge, experience and the proper facility (inclosed arena) with which to do the job properly.  TBs are much too much horse for most people.
This space and forum is too small for me to tell you how to sort your horse out. I have never seen you ride nor have I seen your horse.  I highly recommend that you find a good coach in your area and take your horse for lessons.  TBs are great horses and deserve the best that we can give them. In turn they will give their all.
Happy riding,
Dorothy
