Already late in sending in my enteries, but just a little confused, one class says Hunter type, another says Hunter, also a class for working Hunter, whats the difference between Hunter type and Hunter? both classes are 15.1 and over!

I used to clip my TBX mare in the summer especialy when wanting to compete etc, made her far easyer to manage, a quick sponge over after sweting up and she'd be dry again in no time!, useed a fly rug though, just as a bit of protection.

No obvious signs of injury, no sign of significant pain either, just old age I guess.

Shes had arthritis for about 9yrs,and has coped well with bute only very rarely,but after last week is on two sachets a day.She looks very well in her self and is very bright.

I've got two, usually called a hunting breastplate I belive.Very usefull as an extra handle too!

My 27yr old mare struggled to get up after lying down last week, it happened twice.She hasnt been lying down to sleep since, just sleeps standing up.I'm concerned about her, and am just wondering how long can she go without lying down to sleep ?
