Question
MY EX.RIDER SAYS THEY ARE HURTING HIM SO HE DOESN'T WANT TO
TRAIN, HANG TO LOW , SWING ETC. I SEE A LOT OF OTHER COLTS
KEEP THEM ANY IDEAS

Answer
There is no point in keeping this horse a colt. If they are hurting him to train then you will never have a horse that will compete to it's full potential. His mind is on other things. The chance of this horse having a successful stud career is slim to none. There are too many bad horses breeding out there so unless you have a graded stakes winner bred to a pair of graded stakes winners, geld him.
