    Pricing of horses

    Ah thank you for the warning, to the admin apologies as I wasn't meaning to step out of the guidelines! He's going off on trial for a week but I've only given the girl a guideline figure as I was going to price him fairly high to the open market but now a bit stuck as she's someone i know and...

    Pricing of horses

    I've finally made the decision that i'm going to sell my boy and I'm just rather stuck as to what to ask for him. I've got someone who is interested who I know so I don't want to come across as really greedy but I do need the cash to buy myself a new horse so I'm a bit stuck with what to ask for...

    Travelling a horse on the wrong side of the trailer?

    Well i've tried mine without the partition and the full-length bars and he always ends up trying to press himself against the passenger side. So whenever the partitions are in I put him on the passenger side as he much prefers that side. He tends to arse about behind the driver side and is much...

    Advice on 4x4s please!

    I'm pretty much in the same boat as you and have narrowed it down to pretty much either an izuzu (3.1), nissan terrano or x-trail, Fourtrak or a Shogun. Trying to find any of the above for the right money and right condition is proving to be a lot harder than I thought. Would have thought 4 x...

    Livery needed Derby/Notts/Leics

    Stonepit you will be restricted on turnout, they have hardly any in winter time. Their entrance/exit is also based on a very busy main road too. Although hacking is good around the gotham,west leake, east leake area. Spire View has electric tape turnout and isn't actually a properly...

    Another confused TB owner seeks feed advice (sorry!)

    Is it worth asking the vet again? I'm not an expert but i'd be slightly puzzled by the fact he's so tired and lacking energy just because you've weaned him off the build up mix? Perhaps the vet would be able to suggest a suitable idea for feed to help bring the spark back a bit? I'd have...

    "Dressage" for Hunt Meets

    I tend to find I get perfect marks out of 10 for Beautiful Flying changes whilst trying to feck off down the very long grass stretch whilst A Rider is telling you to calmly canter but you can't because you're so excited you can't work out which leg to be on. Sideways canter whilst...

    Readyfield Bloodhounds

    They're a good friendly bunch. It's only the second time they've done Barton. It's optional anyway and the fences are pretty small ones too if you do end up fancying a go at jumping. Have a good day and hope you really enjoy it!

    pig oil!

    I was wondering that. Surely if you are always washing it off then you're opening up a breeding ground as the moist area makes it even worse? Could be wrong. I've used pig oil/sulphur mix for the last three years. Brilliant stuff for mud fever or for keeping it at bay. My mare used to be out...

    Quorn dates for this winter please?

    Agree with above. You'll need to ring the secretary and explain the situation and whereabouts you are and hopefully they will then be able to tell you the dates they'll be in your area.

    Thoresby? Never would have guessed that and i've been round there a few times. It's def. changed (or shows how much of a heathen i am and don't pay any attention to my scenery) ;)
