We have a dilemma

Today was my third session with Zeke. Wow. I rode Sparkler in the round pen and out in the yard, past the entrance gate and back. She is doing very well. I can't believe she is the same horse. She stands now to mount and dismount and is pretty responsive to direct reining.

Then we talked about options for Red. He is not doing well. The kicking continues and Zeke is beginning to change his mind about whether he's going to make a good riding horse. He charged at Zeke a few days ago and to protect himself, he had to throw up his stick and poked Red in the eye. The vet says it should be OK in a few weeks. Zeke is filled to capacity and can't keep Red any longer. I do not want to bring this horse home like this. I am now petrified of what he might do to me if an experienced trainer has trouble making him behave. To my relief, Zeke's mother called me on my way home to suggest Sid, Zeke's younger brother could work with Red. We'll give him a week and see what happens.
