Hi there, Can anyone tell me what is involved in an equitation class at a local show, and if a GP saddle is more appropriate to wear over a dressage saddle? Many thanks

Could you jump off and walk him in hand past them? Sometimes having you at their head can inspire confidence. You could walk back and forth a few times and reward with treats and praise.

Looking to upgrade the bit I use, which is an eBay bought unbranded Eggbutt snaffle with a losenge. I’ve been looking at the neue schule at around £100, but then had a feel of the shires version which seemed of equal quality. does anyone here have a brand preference, and are the high end brand...

Yes, I think for me a belly band when the coat changing seasons start will work a treat 🙌

Zip is on the back of the leg in my case

Hi there, my horse gets rub marks during coat changing season where the reins sit and also on his sides where my leg makes contact. Although the skin isn’t sore, the bald patches look unsightly. I previously rode in suede chaps and thought this was the cause, so last year I bought leather...

fabulous, thank you. I’ve thought about the hanging cheek too. Thanks for your reply ?

Evening all, My horse is currently ridden in a loose ring snaffle with a losenge. My riding instructor has suggested changing to an egbutt snaffle or a myler as he has a tendency to lean on my hand and also to tuck hi nose towards his chest slightly and we feel as filler bit would help. can...

Thanks everyone for your replies, something to work with. Can I also ask if you have a written agreement or anything signed before letting the grassland?

Afternoon, Does anyone know the going rate to rent a grass field for horses/sheep? land is approx 2 acres, is fenced apart from on 2 sides. Needs water. what sort of money would be the norm? Many thanks

Yes I have BHS Gold

She asked what I thought and then as always we started on with legally where does anyone stand if, god forbid, there was an accident. You could argue the same goes for me using the arena, however I think we know each other well enough by now that sue understands I would never pursue a claim if I...
