Hi Crafty,
Possibly you arent putting ehough pressure on him when he wont stand still, by this i mean as soon as he goes to move away (like even one step as you make the first move to get on) you need to send him (holding the rein in your left hand pointing the direction your want him to go and using your right hand to encourage him forward) and by sending him i mean SEND him... ask him to really move, be that in walk or trot, and really mean it your body language has to say you are calm and confident but his behaviour is NOT what you want. Then bring him to a stand still and start again. If he honestly is not responding to this then i would take his head to his hindquaters as fast as you can the second he goes to move, thus shutting down his hindquarters and showing him that you have complete control over he feet.

P.S i found ALOT of success with this with my 16.2 T/B straight off the track and within a very short time he was standing stock still for mounting and dismounting and is very calm about it as he knows what i want. I hope i explained it ok.... ??
