I'm very lucky I have two of my own who are both chalk and cheese but similar in type (Amer Tb and TbxWB) and my mums irish gelding who is not as well schooled and moves very differently. I am also in the position as a YO to ride my liveries horses when they ask, and so far I have riden most of...

I have found you can't beat Saracens Equi jewel, its rice bran though so not suitable for all. I used it when Top Spec and Blue Chip failed to put weight on my ex race horse. Now he just has a little tp maintain the condition he has. And it doesn't seem to send him off his head like so many...

Sorry if you get sick of the same old posts folks but I dont venture in here very often! What bedding do you guys use and recomend? I'm thinking of switching my lot from Paper as I'm sick of it flying around the yard, and it always seems so damp. I have tried Easybed and Bliss in the past but...

I have one the same...Tried to do it to my a couple of weeks ago in a dressage test, mind you he's not so young! I've had him 2 years and it has deffinately improved, one fracture later mind, but again he tends to have a high head carriage before doing it. His initial problem was down to a...

I don't post on here much, so most of you will have no idea who I am but hey any comments welcome. I took my wbxtb out on sunday to a local dressage comp and he was a real prat. He is such a talented horse (as said by two very well known dressage folk) but he has a real attitude problem. He...

I'm already fence judging for Cambs and district... so I will be there. You will have to point yourself out...or we could wear a yellow flower so we can recognise each other!!!! Looking forward to it, just hope its not going to rain. evenag114 - if its cold will probably resemble michelin...

I have an exracer that also found travelling a bit stressfull at first, he was always with company, but he was also a little difficult to load. We started off by taking him for short journeys, not to competitions or any where too exciting, but to another paddock we rented down the road. This...

I'm guessing your local and mine may be the same, Manor Farm, just a guess from your avatar? Bananaman looks like she goes to Fenning Farm? I probably see you both but have no idea!

I can't rate it enough. The jumps are good, courses not to technical but all have fillers/planks etc. Also there is often a skinny to test you, plus some natural fences to. They run working hunter and show jumping so do plenty of events. The people are friendly and the food's fantastic. The...

I have one very sorry 11 month old to look after at the moment. She came in from the field yesterday with a puncture wound/deep cut to her near hock, which I believe is due to her normally placid field mate kicking out, and there was plenty of the red stuff. She wasn't terribly lame and was...

Hugs to you and you boy...think positive evenag114

Oops my comment went up twice - sorry guys evenag114 - slaps herself on the wrist!

Ok some of us are being a little anthropromorphic however, you would need to consider adequate ventilation/water supply and space (all of which you have already covered) and whether he is safe in the vehicle. You could get a car cage - big one - then you can leave the back of your car open if...

Like you I work shifts so it depends but this week 05:30 and bring in 17:00. I'm down the yard at 0500 this week to poltice one of mine as well! evenag114
