Hi thanks for all the replies. I called the manufac' this morning and despite me being very polite they were actually quite rude! I have been asked to send the bit to them but I am going to contact trading standards first. It's an entirely metal bit with a centre revolver link and it has been...

Yes 20 times in a year like i said. I bought it for my old horse who was PTS a month later and then dug it out a couple of weeks ago to use on my new(ish) horse. And no I'm not rude and do not plan to go in there 'guns blazing' I'm not one of these compo types but i do expect them to accept...

Hi, it was about a year old and had been used a maximum of 20 times (if that)

Hi, any legal types on here? On Monday I was cantering up a field with my horse when my bit snapped in half. This scared the life out of my horse who bolted flat out and I ended up bailing out as we were heading straight for some really rutty ground. I received a severe concussion (so bad that I...

I used it on my mare and it was excellent, noticed a definate improvement. It's no miracle cure but i felt i could safely walk behind her! x

Hi Have PM'd you - my yard owner is selling one which sounds exactly what you are after (she is a lovely mare, 15.2ish, 18 yrs old, fantastic 100% safe hack - for sale at £750.00 as YO wants to find her a lovely home as she is very special Have pm'd you the link to her ad. p.s We are in the...

Yeah am getting the vet out ASAP to have a look... i was thinking originally she might have had a absess but seeing as she has not gotten any 'lamer' in a week, think this is looking less likely.... Who knows, am talking myself into it being something awful... blo**y horses!! But like you say I...

Hi, my horse has been slightly lame for about 6 days now. She has been rested since Firdya (so for six days today) and has literally stood in the field munching. She's not improved but not gotten any worse either. There is no heat, swelling etc and from trotting up she looks as if she is sore...

Hiya, Don't think it's the same one - i'm trying to find Vangelis the cremello warmblood stallion...? Thanks anyway though!!

Yeah I know - everyone has basically confirmed the doubts I had.... might be in the market for a foal / yearling if anyone has any for sale!! x

p.s - she's not unfit for work, just wouldn't take eventing, loads of hunting etc

[ QUOTE ] It's not just the mare you should be concerned about. Breeding from stock that have conformation weaknesses is a very bad idea, especially as it is so bad that she is unfit to work. She'll pass the weakness onto the offspring, and you'll end up with another horse that can't take any...

I am thinking of putting my mare in foal next year. She is five (will be six next may) and a TB x type. She has poor confirmation of the back legs, they are rather upright as such, she is not very strong behind. I think she was a bit of a throw back as both her parents are 15.1hh polo ponies -...

Does anyone know if Vangelis is standing and where? His previous owner has told me he is now in Ireland
