    How long does it take to get to your livery yard?

    it takes me around 8 minutes its one junction down the motorway. i can walk it in about 50 minutes to an hour but that is cutting though a country park and would be a bit of a long route.

    WEG Eventing Team Selected - Thoughts...

    I think the selectors have done a great job. They were damned if they put Oli on the team and damned if they didn't. They couldn't please everyone and to be fair out of 9 team starts he has only gone clear cross country once. So that to me would have been the concern. Ros was a dead cert for...

    Curious - How many homes/owners has your horse had ?

    My current horse was passed round from pillar to post as a young horse. Breeder sold him to a friend, he became bargy and she was pregnant, he apparently knocked her over so she sold him to a dealer. He then was sold to a showjumper to back and 2 months after i bought him. Between 2 - 4 he had...

    Hereshoping well said! We have just sadly lost one of ours basically due to his size. Sudden lameness which when investigated turned out to be his joint collapsing only 12 years old but he was a good 17.1 build like a tank.

    Time between tests

    To be honest i'd be chuffed with those times. I've had 10 mins before today last in the first test, first in the second test. my horse switches of quite quickly and he hates it if i get off and get back on so they would suit me down to the ground. I never request anything as like above i'm...

    Do you insure? Or not? and why?

    I have recently cancelled my insurance. I've had my current horse for 10 years now never made a claim. I got my renewal which had increased to £700 a year. I pondered about what to do for a while. Horse is only insured for vets fees and for a minimal amount to keep costs down. So i had a chat...
