I have a horse who has been on box rest for the last 3 weeks. X Rays and Ultrasound came back clear possibly just a strain so now doing gentle in hand walking to build it all up. My question is I bought an expensive supplement recommended by the vet, it seems to be all singing and dancing...

Thank you I needed the reassurance re the gentle riding 🤭

I have a vet coming out at the end of the week as my horse is very stiff in his hind leg for about half a dozen strides when she comes out of the stable. I have a pretty good idea that it will be arthritis in her hock so vet is bringing out the X Ray machine in case so that I only pay for 1...

Yup that is my my main concern, I will contact the guy who serviced my trailer Y

Thank you, at the moment I tow with an old Ford Ranger 2.5 manual truck

Thank Thank you, I have a Nugent trailer and my horse is approx 600kgs

As above, I have the chance of buying a VW Tiguan, 2ltr diesel, 190bhp. Anyone tow with one of these and if so is it beefy enough and legal to tow up some pretty steep hills. I at the moment drive a 2.5 ltr diesel manual pick up

A quick question for any Dressage riders if poss? I ride unaffiliated dressage but still under BD rules and I ride in a Winderen Mullen mouth bit which has an orange mouthpiece, will I be criticised/eliminated because it isn’t a “common” colour. Advice please
