    Showing In Long Brown Boots?

    I can't think of any reason why anyone would wear a pink tweed!! I currently show in my black boots and have done for years. I've done hunters, workers and M&Ms. I think brown boots with the right tweed, right hat and right colour horse could look really smart.

    Showing In Long Brown Boots?

    Maybe I could just get some for schooling/hacking in... I'll stick to my black ones for the ring. Although, I do really need a new pair...

    Showing In Long Brown Boots?

    I've always thought that was the case but then I swear I've seen people in them. I thought that dressage style boots were frowned upon once upon a time though, maybe in another 10 years they'll be all the rage ;)

    Showing In Long Brown Boots?

    Hi All! I am looking at buying some new long boots and I'm really tempted to buy a pair of brown ones. Does anyone have any recommendations on which ones to go for? Thanks :)

    Hi Guys, Wondered if anyone know anything about a mare that I have just bought. Believed to have come from Wales with her registered owner being a Miss S Morris. Here are some pictures of her... I am after any information about her and her past. Thanks guys

    Working Hunter Help

    So I have made a deal with my owner that I would do workers this summer but I realised that I don't have a clue what I am doing... So we are all registered with BSHA and planning on doing the HOYS qualifiers. I have bought a tweed jacket and have a shirt and tie already. What sort of colour...

    Why is it soooo tempting to buy lots of expensive horse gear!!!

    Selwood often do deals on their animo stuff. Got my breeches at 50% off :)

    Why is it soooo tempting to buy lots of expensive horse gear!!!

    I also use one whether I have studs in or not... It protects their belly from being kicked and if they kick themselves repeatedly in the belly they won't be as tidy in front so therefore you need it ;)

    How to check if a saddle is stolen

    I am looking at buying a second hand amerigo saddle and I want to check if it has been registered stolen. Do amerigo have a page where all the stolen saddles are listed or is there a website somewhere? After having my saddle stolen I don't want to end up buying a stolen one!

    Cashjumping

    I am seriously considering it but after a quick look the only centre near me would not be the sort of centre I would want to jump. It wouldn't take long for horses to jump out of classes if there are a few entries in 4 bs shows my boy has clocked up over £250 already. Might have to go and see...

    To all the showjumpers

    I understand they want to stop this but why not look at the imported horses rule? The HOYS league thing is a total joke but turning new/fox into ages classes is a major step backwards. It just seems to be sending a message to amateur and lower level riders that you shouldn't be jumping above 1.10

    my first affiliated red rosette with Socks :D

    That is great. Glad you got on so well. Hoping to be that successful on our first outing after a 3 month break :)

    Help me rescue my white breeches!

    Would this work with boot polish and leather dye as well?

    Is seeing a stride jumping so important ..

    This makes so much sense. I do love Tim. I have days where I will hit every fence foot perfect (our canter is rhythmical and I'm on form;)) and I am totally connected with my boy not to mention I can see my stride from a mile off. Other days we just won't be clicking and my main issue is I...
