Hi, can anybody tell me if the following reinforcement is suitable for a van conversion horsebox, this is what a pofessional company told me they do and typically I have no clue about this sort of thing :o - 'renult factory made steel bulkhead reinforced with 50x50 angle and 20ml marine ply...

Some people are so rude. I'v actually known an aquaintance pay to advertise their horse with no real intention of selling it... the mind boggles. Good luck horse hunting.

I think that its a combination of people not knowing any better, and people who do know but dont bother because its just local level. I usually (I say this but i have retired my horse from county showing at the end of last year lol) turn out the same regardless of level, and i have to say at...

How come not a double or a pelham inhand? I'll admit that as far as inhand goes i'v not done it lol, i'v only ever done it as the confo part at county level and i guess the double is allready there haha :)

I agree with JTFD on the obeasity front, it's sad but true. Your horse looks a good healthy weight :) You could pull her tail and maybee sew in the plaits, beige or cream jods, dark brown gloves, hair in a bun, a velevt browband that you could match a tie with would look nice. (Showing folk...

Surely someone has an opinion? x

At my question in the CR part of the forum, had no replies yet. Thanks :)

I'm a bit of a lurker on here but just wanted some opinions on a budget for the following horse.. I would most likely be going to the leominster or malvern sales at some point in the winter but before xmas. Looking for between 3 and 6 years old. Would like to do low level BE with the horse...

Thanks for your reply, however I usually use the strip down the back method to protect the tendons from the ridges of the bandages and I was wandering if it is needed n the hinds aswell? :)

I notice that many a time if you line up a slim horse of a chunky breed (Say a cob or heavy horse breeds) and a very overweight but lighter breed such a a TB and ask your average horse owner to pick the overweight horse that they will go with the slimmer horse of a heavier breed. This of course...

I use polo bandages on my horses fronts for schooling and use the leaving a strip down the back of the tendon and then bandage method rather than padding underneath. I wanted to start bandaging her hinds too and I'm wandering is the same method correct for hinds or should I just use the...
