thank you. i will look into them :)

completely agree. i think peopel involved with racing have more concern over the amount of money they are worth than the welfare of the horses. i hate watching it in the fear that something will go wrong.

Hi everyone (: I'm off to Gambia in november to help the third world people out there and i have to do some fundraising for it. i think that doing a sponsored ride somewhere would be a good way to raise some funds to take out there. But does anyone know anwhere that i could ride around? i know...

i think red would look really nice!! or navy!!:)

I find travel boots are quite restictive on the horses leg movements but you can buy leg wraps that are just as easy to put on but are more felxible and will protect your horses legs exactly the same (:

He has always done it! although has gotten a lot worse recently, im thinking of moving him to the other end of the yard where it is quiter, not sure if that would help though! And yes, he picks whatever he can up and spins it round...basically he has to have something in his mouth all the...

Thanks, it could be the same thing as his stable is near where alot of tractors and lorries go past and he shoots to the back of his stable... at 16.1hh its a lot of horse to deal with when he comes at you with bearing teeth!
