second this, without xrays surely you won't know for sure? fingers crossed its not as bad as you fear....

Try Nicky Roncoroni NBR eventing, specializes in producing young horses from backing up to 4 star and currently has a few for sale, definitely worth a call...

Love the way you are so positive and light hearted about your day, its all about the taking part, first event of the season so you can set yourself some goals and things to improve for the next one! Well done you, it's unfortunate you got muddled with dressage time, that wouldn't have helped and...

Both my thoroughbreds hated them, one much happier in happy mouth, the other in a french link hanging cheek. both just didn't take any kind of contact in the NS bit and were evading bit more than ever!

New facilities look great, just what people need with the ground conditions so bad at the moment! looks like you had fun :)

I wasn't sure where those places were so looked them up, that is quite a long way! I have used Ken Gamble in the past and find he is very reasonably priced compared to other transporters, but I'm not sure how it would work for you. I think the best thing is to find a transporter close to either...

Agree with anyone else, I think you would be better off saving the money, you'll be able to save up for a horse of your own much quicker than spending that money on a horse that you don't have a future with. I'm sure you friend will understand :)

Love the dapples, what a handsome boy! What is his breeding? what do you do with him?

sorry if it wasn't very clear, they will let me have him for £3500, which is what I sold him to them for, but to anyone else he's £6000. I think they have done one unaffiliated 80 cm competition since I sold him to them, so who knows if they will get the money or not, I guess it depends who...

They have said I can have him back for what I sold him to them for, so let's see if they stick to their word!

I think he's just had bad luck with his top rides, he lost Magenta and I think Irish Fiddle might have been off work too among others, so I think he is just bringing on the younger rides... Shame that more owners don't come along and support him, I think Alex is great!

Hi everyone, Need a few opinions on what you would do in this situation. So, I sold my horse back in September to some people I know ( they are friends but not close, I haven't known them that long) because I was struggling with money and felt the only way to get out of debt would be to...

I agree, unless the ex racehorse has a good competition record, it's really hard to sell them on, I had a gorgeous ex racer with excellent conformation, sound, completely vice free and the easiest horse to do, went beautifully on the flat and jumping 1.05 easily, but because I didn't have a...

I saw this and thought it did seem quite cheap for an advanced horse?

Marydoll, sorry but this made me chuckle, Not funny at all but just the bit about the eye spy!
