    You need to give this animal to someone who knows what they are doing. Sorry if that sounds insulting but a horse needs more than just love and good intentions. You need a professional trainer with a full stable for it.

    If she is actually unruly enough that she will fight you to the point of injury to herself or you, she is a half ton accident waiting to happen. A dangerous horse pushed by stress-- it sounds as if she is certainly stressing herself now--can easily cripple or kill you. If you have just two horses it is hard to overcome the herd instinct. You can try keeping the two apart; keep an eye out for panicking and going through or trying to go over fences to be with the other horse.. It sounds as though your choices of housing are limited. Depending on how bonded they are, they may learn that separation isn't going to kill them, or it there may be no improvement after say, a week. If so. she needs a professional trainer, before you end up in the hospital.
