Yeah injections (after xrays, scans, etc) then box rest then daily lunging, then work build up. Has to be kept on a postage stamp size paddock so she can't go charging about and will need to be lunged 2-3 times a week forever.... if you can afford a second opinion i would recommend Sven!

Sorry to read your post, sympathies as have been through this :-( but have managed to come out the other end although several thousands worse off! I've no idea where you are but if you can get the horse to Sven Kold at Bushys Equine Clinic (formerly Willesley) in Gloucestershire please do, he...

Vet - Anne Gibbs of Macarthur, Barstow and Gibbs at Droitwich [Kearns and Rea (3 Counties) at Tewkesbury for more serious stuff] Remedial Farrier - Sandpitt Forge at Grimley [expensive] or Clive James [PM me for number] Equine Dentist (pref not a vet) - Phillipa Walker [I use Anne tbh]...

Have you tried calling Solihull and asking them who it was?They don't normally have a photographer for showjumping so no idea who it might be...

Lol, no definately not. But I highly recommend David

Looks like none of those centres had a novice qualifer this year, see this link for the remaining qualifers: http://www.britishshowjumping.co.uk/shows_blue_chip.cfm

Okay, this may but not be strictly CR but how much longer are these arctic conditions going to last???!!! I seriously am not coping with this weather! My school is frozen over, the lane is an ice rink, we have no water for most of the day and my horses have hardly done anything for a month...

Always heard good things about Kate Attlee, she does clinics at Allenshill

Ooh this could end up being a contraversial post... Personally, I think that the issue we have is lack of horsepower not rider ability. We have the mainstays in John, Nick and Michael who are world class and have been at the top of their game for decades; plus we have many outstanding riders...

what a lovely horse - he looks super for his age!

Wales and West has been cancelled on the 20th - not surprising as entries didn't reach double figures at the last show. Rockhampton is not the best venue - v small and dark and the warm up is a nightmare. Needs a lot of investment! However saying that the people are very friendly and the locals...

Had all mine from from Tracy Barrow (nee Coppolla) rider for Micheal (Pip) Lyons - can't praise them enough. PM me if you want contact details
