I called Mary at Morecroft last year befor I actually ended up buying my own ex racer! They are over near Horsham. SHe will ask you what you are looking for and what sort of home you can offer etc. I will just say that it put me off that the horse will never actually be yours but you still have...

Im struggling to find hay in West Sussex as well. Will let you know if I find some. Good luck!

My farrier did this on my 16.1 TB, he has no heel on backs, never got stone caught, just straw slipped in between but pulled out easily. Now gone barefoot anywhay cos couldn't get over the damage shoes were doing to his feet. Amazing difference in hoof quality.

Im totally amazed, the kind wonderful people at all the charities involved have done such a fantastic job. It would break my heart working somewhere like that, completey in love with Blakey and Rumple.

Hi All Anyone know where in Sussex you can ride on the beach? Want to show my 6yr old TB the sea!! Were are in West Sussex and dont want to travel too far. Ta

Hiya I got fed up with all this wormer business,trying to decide which ones and when. So I went with Intellegent Wormers (found details online) You pay and inital £12.50 for an egg count after that they taylor make a worming programme for you, cost does vary for the year depending on the...

I took mine out with NFU when I loaned a horse. Only cost £7 a month and think it covered public liability which you need etc. Really nice people, plus the monthly amount goes down every month cos of some shareholder thing?!

My TB went barefoot on fronts 4 months ago and on backs 3weeks ago, has really bad feet, front moreso. But since having them off, soles have hardened up, new hoof growth is at perfect angle not the horrible splayed "dinner plates" they have been. You have to train their feet to cope with the...

I have an ex racer who had no muscle and was totally unbalanced, legs all over the place. I put him in a Market Harborough, really unstressfull, doesnt hold head at all. We worked really hard on lateral work, ever decreasing circles to help balance and just walk and trot until all of a sudden he...

Hey I have one- Flash (didn't chose name, but kinda stuck) - AKA Flashy Pants!!

Out of your choice I prefer the goldy coloured ones. I find red/white/gold looks nice on my dark bay

Hiya Does anyone have a pair of Old Mac G2 Size 3 they need/want to sell? Thought I needed Size 4 but did the "twist" test and where to big. Desperate as need to go hacking, FlashyPants is getting well bored with schooling (me to). Cheers

It is all about the Dublin River Boot, love love love mine. Soooo comfy and great to ride in. They look fab and scrub up well.

My TB had pads on for a while, but thet caused me no end of grief. He has really thin soles so felt every lump and bump on ground. I had the thin black rubber pad with a pink dental packing. These worked for a time and I thought we had struck gold, then it all started going wrong. He went really...

I bought my TB ex racer windsucker last August, first horse, didnt really now what I was getting myself into. It really bothered me to start with but I love him to death so I have to put up with it. Again he tends to do it more after eating. It is also a game for him as well, as soon as back is...
