There is likely a good reason for the horse acting stubborn. It may be in pain, unable to do what is asked of it, or even confused. Have the horse thoroughly checked out by and equine vet first and see if anything is causing it pain. If that cause has been ruled out, go back to basics and work with the horse to train out the undesirable behavior and replace it with a more acceptable one. Pulling on the reins also only aids the horse in not listening, they are able to brace themselves against the pressure you create and move through it.
