    Breeding for hunter?

    Another huge Archie fan here. I have a stonking filly by him out of my sports horse mare. She's beautifully put together, a lovely amount of bone, yet she has a lightness to her movements you would not expect on such a stamp of a horse. I cannot wait to hunt (and event) her, as like her daddy...

    Bloodlines research again!

    I am trying to find the name of a mare that is granddam to my mare, Graffito's Memory. Pedigree can be seen at: http://www.sporthorse-data.com/d?d=graffitos+memory&x=0&y=0 The dam is Fables Promise and her owner was told the granddam was a 'Mallwood Mare' (??) and that she was put to...

    Two foals in two hours is hard work - but convenient!

    Ok next yard move question...how the flip do I move my mats?!

    Def another vote for ebay! I too had a wall to wall deep bed after box rest once. The bed was lovely and immaculate, but oh my god did if hoff underneath... I'd had a headcold and blocked sinuses for a while when I moved mine and yes, clear as a bell after about two mats.... Sell sell sell!

    Ok next yard move question...how the flip do I move my mats?!

    I can hear a recoiling eeeuuugghhhhwwwww around the forum as we all imagine that under-mat-horse-pee-stenchlike-sludge... One of those big yellow hazchem style radiation suits would do the job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Ok next yard move question...how the flip do I move my mats?!

    MAYO mats are the best EVA mats I could find. They tend to be more expensive but they are worth every penny IMO. They don't spread and have to be recut all the time like the cheaper EVA mats. Depending on your budget, it might be worth looking around at the various Ag suppliers. Matting is...

    Thanks, have just drafted a letter to the stallion owner to see if he has any details of the mare. Any tip is worth a try! Cheers, J

    Indigo Blue Lady is a LOVELY name. I love playing around with names and links etc. My ISH mare had not been assigned a name in her passport when I bought her as a 3yr old so I could choose. I called her Flagstone Ohio (Flagstone was our IT consultancy) and the Ohio bit came from her sire, Ard...

    Anyone good at researching bloodlines?!

    I would REALLY like to fill in the blank bit of my mare's (and therefore my filly's) bloodline. Here is what I know: http://www.sporthorse-data.com/d?i=10704597 or http://www.allbreedpedigree.com/flagstone+harriet+hotstuff but as you will see I need info on 'Lorraine's Lady'...

    Ok next yard move question...how the flip do I move my mats?!

    Think about each mat as an A4 bit of paper you have to fold into three to get it into a long envelope. Fold one end in and stand on the corner in the middle (not the other (fold) end as you risk the mat cracking) then fold the other over the top to the outside edge. You can then tie twine round...
