https://www.eastminsterridingschool.co.uk/ Is in Upper Rainham Road. https://www.aldboroughhall.co.uk/ Is a bit further from you, in Newbury Park. Both are highly recommended.

Done.

What are the problems with it? Things like that are sold as seen. I presume they gave it a good going over themselves?

:(:(

Have you tried travelling without? My mare would rub her tail on the back bar so the tail guard or bandage would slip down. Exposing a lovely loo brush look at the top. I tried travelling without anything and she didn't rub. I worked out she was rubbing her tail in an attempt to remove the...

That comment was from 6 years ago now so more than likely things have changed.

I think it's purely down to everywhere being run on minimal staff due to Covid. Everything is delayed as a consequence.

I tow my Cheval Liberte trailer with a Kuga. Trailer weight is 860kg. My horse is 570kg so a bit under what you would be towing. I find the Kuga a great car to tow with, never had any problems.

Sorry to resurrect your old thread. I'm wondering how your hysterectomy went? I'm about to have the same myself. Hope your recovery was straight forward and you were back riding promptly.

I would never lend my trailer to anyone. Not after I saw a horse kick the granny out of one at a show. Someone on my yard was recently put out as I refused to let them borrow it just to practice loading their fruit loop horse. I'd only ever transport someone's horse in an emergency or the odd...

You sound like you're going in with your eyes wide open. As you have the support network and will be on full livery I would take the plunge. There's never really a "right time" to buy a horse. I take it you have been doing things like mucking out and grooming at the riding school? Turning out...

My mare does this when she has sweat around her ears or a sweaty face. Could it be that?
