Well that explains alot

.Sounds like your needing to starting off fresh with this horse,which explains his looking like a green horse despite his age.Just because he more mature doesn't mean he is not able to learn just as well

.A horse like him that has some trust issues & not been rode alot,I think if you can make that bond & trust with him you can learn alot together. He should make a great riding partner for you.
