have seen a few comments but never this one "horse likes to take the lead and sulk if taken on" so obviously either race handy or early pace but do you think blinkers or anything like that would also help? |

I've had this before. Blinkers won't make a difference. It just means that the horse likes a clear lead and likes to be the only one up front. If it is challenged for the lead it will drop out and not try to win the race for you. |

Cheer mate had a little play around and found pacifiers didn't make a difference his advised distance was 2.4miles so raced him at only 2m chases and that seemed to help him get in front and stay there most of the time! |
