    Sweet itch as others have said. Stubborn and self-opinionated like no other but loving and sure footed. Mine is a naughty schoolboy but I love him to absolute bits.

    We're looking to relocate to East Yorkshire and will need livery, preferably DIY for two geldings under 15.2hh, fairly close to Goole. Any suggestions or places to avoid please?

    Finally back on board!!

    Really good news. So good to hear of someone that listens to their horse and takes advice. You are a credit to horse ownership and Prince is very lucky x
