    Lameness - video - clean hock xrays?

    I know I'm gutted now as I'd been meaning to swap from the for ages but it's to late now! :( He nerve blocked front left foot, which then caused the other front leg to go very lame, so he was convinced that he was to footsore to be able to make a clear assessment. But he said from what I'd...

    Lameness - video - clean hock xrays?

    Hi, thank you, he's 9 and I've had him a year. I'm insured ...but with E and L, which was a stupid move and I've heard bad things! He's only been on bute since yesterday and 2 today, but it's the first time he's done his stretches over his back without lifting a leg to avoid it? That could be a...

    Anyone got a horse by Flemensfirth?

    I have just bought an off the track 7yr old by Flemensfirth. He's currently having a month off to have a break but has been quiet to handle, had a little plod on him when I viewed him and he travelled like a dream/was very chilled out having just moved yards. Excited to start riding him!

    Ex hurdle/chase racehorse just off the track for eventing...?

    Thank you I didn't realise you could see race comments, that was useful, he's not that cheap to be honest... He apparently hacks alone with a nervous rider and is good to do/no vices and has never refused a fence and is sound/careful jumper. It's something to think about though, with the...
