Try brook farm in Alresford. 3 schools with jumps and good hacking (: they have a website.

Loose ring french link, which I have lost, so I've been using a loose ring copper lozenge for the last week and he goes just as well.

I would say yeah. It's 45 mins from me and I love it

I went last night, paid £68 per ticket to sit at the end of block D, I could bearly see the left half of the arena. Oh well luck of the draw. But what I couldn't deal with was the group of 13 - 16 year old girls that talked CONSTANTLY and LOUDLY throughout all performances!! I now know their...

I left halfway through. 3 rows from the front. I couldn't watch anymore. The horse wasn't happy, put it down to stage fright or something else but I didn't see the need for the pony club kicks and sawing on the reins. I'm not part of the kauto star fan club but no horse should be displayed as he...

Went looking for: 14.2-15.2hh newforest, Highland, dales ect. bright bay 4-9 year old gelding Good to hack and schooling progressing. A confidence giver really. Bought home: 16.2 hh chestnut thoroughbred gelding 8 years old sarcoid on belly Straight from the track. Turns out...

Nearly bought a newforest pony called kerfuffle (: Instead bought a thoroughbred called Joey Essex (;

I own a thoroughbred. But my favourite breed is the newforest pony.

That's actually quite a polite thing to say round where I am. Comments about me, my horse and my riding on the roads are usually more 'colourful' but thankfully not very often (:

I was very lucky to meet the people on here that I did. I'm ashamed that I haven't really kept in contact as once prince was put to sleep I lost alot of my love for horses. Things just didn't seem fair so I sold my other horse and left the forum. So in no particular order. Amymay for keeping...

Not in the last year but 3 years ago. Bought a mare that he'd only had in a week or so. He truthfully told me that she hadn't been tested yet so I bought her for a minimal price. Turns out she was broken and out competing only months before. She was a bloody diamond and now is ridden by people...

Yes. In June I bought a chestnut TB ex-racehorse from a dealer on the cheap. Friends told me I was mad, refused to come with me to see it as not to encourage me and even withdrew offers of places to keep him. From day 1 he turned out to be the soppist, sweetest horse you'd ever know. He...

I don't intend to do anything particularly high with him. Up to 3 ft 3 at the most. Really he's just a happy hacker but I'd like to get out to a few local shows a year. I mostly asked for people's opinions incase there was something shocking that I didn't notice that mat affect marks in the...

It may well be his current saddle as he'll jump fine without it on or it could be me. He has no jumping history that I know of but his race record says he was sold to the national hunt for 3 years and I believe they jump them? I will ask he vet to take a look

Thank you people, He certainly is a full tb by Compton Place out of Coffee Time. Raced I think 15 times and won twice. As soon as I got him I had a vet out and she said he's sound and his back is fine. However he is having a saddle fitting for a thorrowgood t4. His jumping is messy, he...
