Hi, I have just bought an Equipe Jump saddle for my new horse, to the despair of my bank account, and have just seen that they recommend using special cleaning stuff. I had no idea about this, and as I obviously don't want to ruin it or damage it in any way shape or form; I wondered if there...

Hi, Please can someone explain to me about crank nosebands and how they differ from a normal noseband? My horse came with one, but I don't know if he needs it and I want to get a new bridle... I have found a place that do really nice bridles (Evison equine), but they only do crank! I do...

1) Do you measure a stud girth the same way you do a normal short girth? eg. if i take my current girth to the tack shop will the same size stud girth fit? 2) Is it better for stud girths to be leather; or are ones like the HY Comfort Waffle Stud Girth just as good? 3) Are all stud girths...

Hi, has anyone ever bought a Horka Show Jacket? I am looking at buying one but they don't have the size 8 I tried on in the shop. They do have an age 14 and an age 16.... Does anyone know whether these jackets come up big or small compared to sizing? Any help will be appreciated! Thank you in...

I wonder if anyone can help me...? I am just looking at the POYS schedule and it says there is a 148cm Special Final; is this instead of the intermediate Grand Prix? If it is not; what is it? 😬 Also, what height is it (first round of GP)? Thank you in advance! x

Thank you very much! Very useful! Is there a different height depending on whether it is the European team competitions (qualifiers etc) or the ones at POYS...?

Please can someone explain to me what height Children on Horses is and if you have to be a certain age (I know you still have to be in ponies!) Some places say you have to be between 12 and 14; but at places like POYS, it's for any age... Any help would be appreciated! TIA x :)

Hi, I have had my new horse for 2 months, and when a vet (not our usual) came to give him his flu jab, she noticed something wasn't great with his heart. We got our usual vet out, and she took him for some tests today as she had a specialist cardio person out anyway. He did some tests and it...

Hi, Anyone know of any good but not astronomically priced show jumping trainers in Dorset? Not to be offensive; but I would like a pure show jumper please, as although eveners are good, I find they have a different style to pure show jumpers! Just about to move up to Newcomers on my new...

Horslyx - also Likits but none of my horses have ever seemed to like them! x

Freejump Stirrups.... What is the different between the Pro and Lite stirrups apart from the price? Also, if they do snap, do they replace for free of have you just spent £200 for nothing? Also, do you have to buy the free jump stirrup leathers or do normal leathers work? Thanks, ChescaG <3

Thank you even more! :) I hadn't even thought about that!! Yes, he has jumped a Tacklockers 1m with a double clear! Question answered! Thanks! x

Thank you both!
