It sounds like you have been very patient with your frightened horse. I don't know your training method, but be sure you are not rewarding your horse for his bad behavior by offering soothing tones and pats to 'settle him down'. Any sign of head shaking, tail batting, or an unauthorized increase in speed should cause you to speak sharply and do some quick correcting with a jerk on the lines. Reward him for good behavior by reducing this mental pressure. If you are sure you are already working him this way then he should have had enough time to learn. Be careful, and don't put yourself in a questionable situation until you are sure he will listen.
