Answer 3

it is likely something has happened in the Field to scare her. she will be fine trotting in hand because she can see you, and feels safe. but as soon as you are out of sight, even though you are just on her back, she will feel frightened that whatever spooked her a while ago will come back (even if it was just a plastic bag flying around with some ponies, but this sounds like it was more scary) this is how horse's mind's work. so the best thing to do would be to try lunging her, tacked up, in the field a few times, at different gaits. then get someone to lunge her while you ride her etc until she gets used to it. she should be back to normal in no time! good luck!
