Racesafe vote for me too. I am very top heavy and I found Racesafe was the only one that fit me well in that department!

Tack not included, it belongs to the person selling rather than the owner apparently...

I really like the look of him, but for exactly the reasons mentioned, i.e. 'Selling on behalf of friend' and the fact he is so cheap (almost half the price of one I am going for a second look at), I am wary. Also... About a month ago, he was advertised as being 'Sold from the field' for...

Is this any good? http://www.equine-agents.co.uk/

Does anyone know this horse? Any opinions for a nervous novice most welcome! http://www.horsemart.co.uk/advert/8_yrs_15_3_hh_skewbald_lincolnshire/73805

AAAAAAGGGGGG Why don't the Farriers flirt with me and send me text messages!!!!!!!!!!!

I rode my Welsh D in a Dr Cook bridle and he went much better in that - he didn't lean on it in the same way he leant on any other bit. I also had much better brakes and steering with it and also much better for when my novice daughters rode hime.

My instructor raves about Light Therapy. It can pick up points of soreness on your horse that a back specialist wouldn't treat. Not good at explaining it myself, but try googling it. Apparently NASA used light therapy to treat astronauts in space due to injuries not being able to heal in the...

Don't like to say on a public forum why he failed, so have pm'd some of you. And yes, I did attend the vetting. :-(

Paton & Lee are going to do the vetting and hoping to use Phoenix transport. Thanks to all who helped with these suggestions.

No market whatsoever for 2nd hand jumps. PM me your address and I'll take them off your hands for free..........

Very nervous and excited, having horse vetted tomorrow. He is quite a long way from where I live so if he passes, will have him delivered by transport company next week. In that case, when would I pay? Is it normal practice to pay when picking up horse, or would I pay tomorrow if vetting successful?

Getting ahead of myself, following on from my post about the lovely big plod, but can anyone recommend a good Specifically Equine vet in the Thurrock area of Essex and does anyone know of cheap, but good horse transport from this area?

I had my last horse until he died for 20 years and he wasn't quite a plod, but very safe. I shared him with my daughters. We bought another horse last year after his death, but he turned out to be too much for us and we sadly had to sell him, when we had hoped he would be with us for his...
