You might try sprinting your horse out in the open or down a racetrack to get a little more run in him. You only want to sprint him about 75-100 yds and only do this a couple of times a week until he starts to run more when you compete. Be sure that where you sprint him has good level ground with some cushion to it or you stand a chance of soring him or crippling him.
