Hi Guys Me again, just thought i'd let you all know that our morning out yesterday went quite well. We had the usual fidgeting, messing about on the spot, issues standing still along the edge of plough, but no hedge diving or ditch leaping. Got a little lost in some woods and cut off from...

Completely agree with this post, iv'e had same kind of issue recently out hunting, i ride all other disciplines in a loose ring french link as my mare is super sensitive. Put her in a waterford to stop her leaning on the bit out hunting and she was running back, hanging behind the bit etc, tried...

hope this works!

Morning All Well a much better meet I think. Stood well and listened to the master address us all, moved off in trot down the road NOT canter. Got to the first field and held her at the back so that i could ask her to canter on, not run off with the field. Lots of sheep and cattle fields so...

Hi Guys All very interesting comments, agree about not staying out too long, unfortunately last time we were well away from home and i didn't know the country so had to wait to head home otherwise we would have left earlier. The meet this weekend we know a little better and often go back to...

Hi folks Hope you can reassure me i'm doing the right thing, iv'e recently taken my youngster out autumn hunting and whilst she is ace to compete, hack etc found it all a little too fun and exhilirating. 1st time out wasnt a big deal, but as you would expect the 2nd time (the last time we...

Hi all Have you seen that spillers is donating 1kg of feed to Redwings for every person on thier page on facebook! I think this is brilliant and more feed companies should be doing things like this to help out these horses in the current financial climate. Any way, rant over....but i think...

I will try this tomorow as may help with half the problem of not being able to trust her tied up!

thanks ZorroR. I take a haynet which she doesn't touch until after shes competed and my boyfriend is my live in groom lol, so hes always there. Thanks for the reassuring message though, just wondered if there was any quick fix as she just seems so on edge but i'm sure as with everything to do...

Hi All Hope you can give me some hints and tips, i have quite a green mare, who has been broken in for 18 months now and is out and about eventing. My problem is that she is a fantastic traveler and absolutely fine when i'm on board but a complete nightmare when we get to a competition and...
