i would say start little and build it up, so start off with the poles on the ground then raise them slightly off the ground and build it up each day untill you are jumping the heigh you want. also check that there is nothing that you are doing that would put him of jumping eg not giving with your hands, not leaning foreward etc

Try free schooling over them so you both get confidence, he will cos he will get used to it without you over or under riding him into it so he wont rely on you, and you will have confidence that he will do it instead of anticipating the refusal (which you may be doing)

Ha ha, if you can get a video of your horse jumping 9 foot I'd like to see it! There are quirky horses though who don't like small jumps. Was he an ex-racehorse? If he raced over jumps then he only knows how to jump fast so you need to re-educate him.
