    Working livery...

    3 hours a day working in an arena being jumped as much as that? You are so very lucky this horse isn’t crippled &/or sour. You really do need to address this pretty quickly IMO.

    Emily King crowdfunding?

    Yes point taken. How utterly ridiculous.

    Emily King crowdfunding?

    Do you know what the more I think about this the more it screams SCAM! This horse has jumped 4 events (ok I appreciate the cancellations haven’t helped) - it’s done 2 BE 90 (both with XC faults), 1 BE 100. This is, what looks like the 3rd pro rider it’s been with - has also been with Izzy...

    Emily King crowdfunding?

    I’m guessing that at the moment the horse is only competing BE100/Novice so she isn’t lying that contributers can come to every event/ walk courses. The numbers that actually would rock up to a novice event to watch/walk a course is pretty small I’d guess. Obviously this promise is...

    Emily King crowdfunding?

    Horse & country magazine donating £5,000. I just can’t get my head around this.....

    Emily King crowdfunding?

    The whole point of the Jonty & Art one was that here was a rider that had produced a horse all the way from novice to the Olympics. He had done all the graft & got the results.....& then the horse was going to be sold. That was why it struck a chord with so many people. Emily’s is very...

    Stopping?

    If you are ‘missing’ regularly then that will be knocking her confidence constantly. I would stop jumping for now, & enlist the help of a really good jumping instructor, who will help you both get your confidence back. It might be that you need to return to basics such as polework & grids to...

    Cheeky/ridiculous posts you see on Facebook.

    Ahhh yes it was. I didn't realise it that girl TBH. I just read the post at the time & thought WTF? Given this girls previous posting history, I think this makes me more worried for the youngster 😢

    Cheeky/ridiculous posts you see on Facebook.

    Not a cheeky post but one that has made me shake my head. Post looking for 24/7 grazing for an 18 month colt. She has been let down several times. He is well behaved & no problem even around mares. This seems a fairish post. In the comments people have asked why she doesn't geld him...

    I'm hoping that actually all this crowdfunding is doing is trying to bring the situation to the attention of a big investor. In a similar way the Carl/Uti one seemed to help. The horse world can be a really lovely place but I would be very surprised at £550,000 being raised by donations...

    See, that's where I'm sitting a little bit at the moment. Jonty has been in the business a while. I cannot believe that he was naive enough to think that the owner wouldn't be made offers for the horse. I would also be VERY surprised that there wasn't a contract in place & there are many...

    Bradwall Horse Trials

    I too have created a little story in my head 😂 #nosybonk The only record that BE would keep from 2 years ago, is a horse fall or if the rider was disciplined in some way (& I suspect a verbal warning would be removed from a record after 2 years) They certainly don't keep the...

    Bradwall Horse Trials

    Ok, I've had a look through your posts & I appear to have gleaned what you are trying to do. In all honesty, I think you are barking up the wrong tree here. - That 60 penalties (which was either 2 stops at the same fence - most likely looking at the horses record or 1 stop at 3 different...

    Bradwall Horse Trials

    Look at BDWP, if you look at the section results instead of just doing a name search it tells you where faults were picked up.

    Volkswagen Lt35 Horsebox

    I have an ancient LT35, its heavy & slow but I bloody love it. Don't be put off by the high centre of gravity, they are a lot more stable than other builds of this type. My advice is to contact a local VW group, they love keeping old VW's on the road & will know who is best to go to to get...
