Not an old fashioned one but Drayton Manor Park has one. I know because when I’ve gone with my niece and friends children I’ve insisted on going on it - more than once! Love a carousel - but only want to ride a horse,not sit in a carriage or on another animal!

P.s sure the vets will love me but I’ve taken note of all suggestions and done my own google research , really want no stone left unturned.

Thanks all for your replies. He’s off to Newmarket Horsepital so hoping they can give me some answers. He’s only seven and the best happy hacker (and fast canter, small jumps!) and such a lovely, kind horse with character, there’s nothing about him not to like. He had a hard time racing and...

Thank you - sounds worth a try! And as Trakkey said inexpensive, added bonus!

Thank you - not tested but wormed :)

Aah good point, think I’ll speak to the vets before I change anything. Another supplement has been suggested so will ask whether worth considering

No nothing neuro yet, not convinced that’s where the issue is, but still worth mentioning. Thank you

Thank you going to ask about a referral.

Thanks for sharing, I’m not overly optimistic currently as episodes increasing and the ones we know about….

Think I’m going to ask for this as next step

How was the it diagnosed in the end? This is what I’m worried about, getting side tracked and not finding the cause until it’s too late. You description of your horse is the same as mine is displaying but is much more dramatic (as is his personality).

Thank you - this is my worry too - a growth. Vet/s (2) have seen nothing abnormal in the scope but maybe scan is next. Will suggest.

Nope- bright chestnut. I’m convinced it’s a pain response, but need to find the source and ulcers are not it

Good idea, worth a go. field is surrounded by hedgerows and no poisonous plants or trees. Will look into supplements.

Thanks all very much appreciated, taking all advice/experiences on board and will share with vet/s.
