    Those who trailer alone

    Absolutely I nearly always go alone, I have double breast bars and no partition, horse likes it like that but also means you have lots of room in the trailer to tack up etc.

    Caring for Mattes lambskin products....

    I washed my Mattes half pad without Melp :eek: but with human hair conditioner applied first, came out fine :), I would say wash when you think it needs washing

    Another saddle fit q. More rider related!

    I had the same issue with the Albion ages ago, in hindsight the seat was too deep for me for a gp, I've just bought a new saddle and the K2 was an option again, still too deep for me.

    Rider too heavy

    How about a slightly different approach, if I were joining a gym or employing a fitness coach, I would expect to have a new client sheet, filled in. Name, DOB, height, weight, health issues, what I want to achieve. Why shouldn't that be part of riding instruction too, one for horse too, a way...

    Advise from experienced trainers please (French Trotter)

    Some ex racehorses and trotters I have experienced can be quite institutionalised if they have been racing for a long time and find anything outside the framework they are used to quite stressful because to them everything is new/different/worrying, even to the point of a change in surface...
