SillyGillyHorse.......I believe I know you ;) xx So glad I am not the only one who is not happy with the changes that have been forced upon us. I just feel the ability to progress if we want to is slowly being taken away from us. Not every one wants to race around an 85, in the same way that...

I am struggling with the logic of the addition of the 85cm as well to be honest! The 110 run as a10 is great for me to jump, but where is the progression after that and a nice class to qualify for? That is where I am disappointed.

Evening All, Just been on the BS website and seen the changes of height and rules for the 2013-2014 amateur classes. What are your thoughts? We now have an 85cm, 95cm, 105cm and 110cm (110cms is run under a10 rules). Personally for me this really doesn't suit as I am comfortably...

Does anyone know where I can get hold of a supplment called REMOUNT that Triple Crown make? Thanks

Hi All, Just wondering if anyone can help. A friend of mine is looking for a yard which offers FULL Livery (does not have to include riding)- must have a good sized school, offer individual turnout most of the year and flexible times for being on the yard. Anyone got anywhere they can...

£29 actual and £1 notional - 7th Brit nov June 2012 and 4th in 80cm June 2011 for Harbour King

Morning All, I have a lovely 3.5t Regent box that I bought as a new build last year, but now am in the position where I need some thing larger and with some living in it (specifically shower and toilet!). So do I try and sell my 3.5t privately or chop it in against the new box? Just...

I have a brown 56inch Fairfax which is a bit too long of any one is looking! ;)

I got mine from Crewe Saddlery - you have an option of a 7 day trail for £25 I think it is, if you decide to keep the girth you then pay the remainder after the 7 days. They also keep a fair few in stock.

I was at Broomes over the weekend - was this horse a little bay horse by any chance? I remembered this thread in the back of my mind and sure I past someone who was trying a horse on Sunday!!

Horses like that are out there at cheap prices at the moment - I would look Scotland area and take a punt. I made a brave/stupid move of buying a horse unseen from the depths of Scotland. Saw a video fell in love and offered the guy silly money and he accepted - made the offer on a Monday...

Morning :) Does any one know of anywhere that has a proper SJ water jump in an arena that I can hire/use? I am based in the west midlands, but happy to travel up to a couple of hours for a schooling session, or even better if there is someone there to book a lesson with! Many thanks :)

thank you to everyone for your advice! Day one of breaking in boots - thick leggings and long socks on I put the boots on at 6pm this evening, over the course of 30 mins worked the zips up to the very top. I then cooked dinner, ate dinner, cleared that away, swapped the washing over, done...

Around the ankle and foot is absolutely fine - it's the tops of my legs where they are really tight, hence the throbbing feeling! I tried to ride in them yesterday which lasted for 10mins before I changed boots!! Have warned the OH so when he comes home and I have my boots on he doesn't get...

Thanks for the advice!! I can get the zips done up to the top and the strap clips on (hope that makes sense!!) - so I supose I am part way there!! Boots are now in the car ready to be taken home and worn each night - just hope no one comes to the front door ;) Glad that the leg...
