with that tho Lorraine you are not exactly working on the specific problem of being barn sour. Its like my stonewall, half the people I know would have trouble believing he has ever acted bad in his life while the other half, I have actually had people suggest I have him put down because he's psycho, had many people say I should sell him, have trouble believing he is actually broke to ride much less that he has literally thousand of trail miles on him. then the people I ride with all the time say stuff like "stonewall is just so perfect". But I dont know how to fix the problem he has, which is he goes psycho in a crowd, an exciting new situation, a big ride. Just goes nuts. and I really dont think its fear, because he is fearless at home, so if its fear its situational fear. What it is is I think he gets frenzied with excitement and just loses his mind.
