This is so puzzling to me. It really is. That one can work each day with horses that are lazy as sin, ones that are smart as can be, ones that are dumber than a bucket o dirt, and ones that too, are crazy.

Its worrisome as sin I know, yet its fascinating to read about.

Can you tell more about what shows when a horse "refuses to train." His actions, etc, (or lack thereof). And possibly the crazy ones. Or you could discuss each, that would be even better.

This should probably be another thread, but either way, quite interesting stuff.

The fillies were both mean as hell and neither could run a little. Now I realize that this is a small sample but I have heard similar from other trainers.
