Now stalking you! Brilliant report!!

How us your horse getting on? Mine has the same injury. He is on 2 weeks box rest and will them be re-xrayed and the options discussed.

My 16.1 ish is in a standard full size. The first time I tried it on I thought it didn't fit - you need to spend some time playing around with the settings.

Thanks. I plan on gong to HB's after the be event. It's shut now! I wasn't sure if craven would be technical enough. Does it have combinations?? Many thanks.

I've dedicated the next month or so to getting over my phobia of any xc fence involving a ditch! I plan on getting round as many xc courses as possible. Willing to travel 2.5 hours from York for a course with a decent amount of ditches. Please can I have any recommendations. I've been to...

My horse is a fusy eater. He is currently fed on topspec balancer and cubes which he seems to really like. Topspec have said to add salt to his feed which I have tried (a tea spoon) and he doesn't like!! Is adding salt to the feed the same as adding electrolytes? Is there any particular...

Perfect. Thanks. Have you had lessons with any of these??

I am driving from Yorkshire to Staffordshire on 25th June and plan on stopping off at somerford on the way down. I know that if I don't have an instructor with me I won't do anything over 2ft6 or remotely push myself. I've had a lesson with Andrew heffernan and whilst he suited me (I need...

I am at Sport Horse Select in Stillington now and love it! PM me if you want more details!

Dito all of the above. I to was one of the last to go today and was surprised how good the ground was. After the awful forecast the rain managed to stay away -fingers crossed for the next two days.

Thornthorpe near Malton, Thornton lodge near Easingwold, course for horses near Stamford bridge, Northallerton equestrian centre (not open all the time), hamley hagg near Appleton le moors, further afield foxberry near Richmond.

I was in a really similar situation where by the yard owner / my trainer would always manage to convince me that her way was best and before I knew it i wasn't doing my horse the way I wanted to! I moved yards (for a different reason actually!) and it was so the right thing to do. Until I moved...

Yes I would. I think it's respectful to the judges. I would do it the night before though!!!

Will cut down feed. He's certainly not greatly overweight and after struggling to keep weight on him in previous winters, I am happy with his weight now, especially as the grass will disappear at some point and the weather is likely to get worse before it gets better. I don't want him to put...

When you say hard feed, do you just mean the mix?? He was on much more last winter! I don't think he is stale. I never do the same thing twice in a row and he's out somewhere different every weekend. He's also just had 3 weeks off. I do appreciate the suggestion though!!
