Fylde. Will make any bit to your specification- mouth piece, shank length etc!

The majority of hunters go in pelhams or doubles. It is what is deemed correct! Novice hunter classes are few and far between and most younger horses end up contesting open classes generally! I have normally found a little lightweight pelham set (like you would put on a show pony- tiny thin...

Personally as a 4 year old I would be expecting them to be doing Novice classes which for M+Ms would be a snaffle only as per rules. Except PUK which is any acceptable bit. For a Hunter/RH/Cob/Hack novice classes are normally done in Pelhams/Doubles which IMO the horse has to be exceptionally...

Working very hard. Putting in lots of extra hours. Selling the best horse in your yard. Even though you know its destined for the top your bank balance says otherwise. Taking chances on youngsters and working hard to make them the best they can be. We don't all have rich parents- just...

I had a serious fall on a pointer approx 5 years ago. Smashed right leg from toes to up through ankle on both sides. After being in plaster and air casts for 6 months I started gently riding again. No feelings from waist down que X-ray emergent MRI scan. Discovered I had broken l4/l5 and...

As a general little tip my advice is to always ride the horse first when viewing. Then ask for it to be ridden by the seller, this gives you the chance to see the horse with somebody who should have a relationship with it. If you purchase horse/pony it is you who in most cases will be getting...

I was not a member on here to post my 2013 goals but I was lucky enough to achieve most of them- qualifying RIHS, wins at championship shows, competing more in dressage and ODE. one of the most proudest is passing my trailer test, just the HGV to go! For 2014: My main aim is to qualify mum...

Change direction continually- lots of serpentine, small loops, start teaching some lateral work, incorporate lots of transitions- down to walk for a stride, straight back up to trot. Put poles down off corners to work over and then randomly place around school to make pony drop head and think...
