    Kent and masters jump saddle? S-Series?

    Hi I was wondering if anyone has a kent and masters jump saddle, how do you find it? Is it secure? I'm thinking of updating my GP for the jump to give me more security. Also where did you buy yours from? Is there any where reputable to buy it online?

    Any tips for the B+E trailer test?

    Thanks, I am planning to appeal so the instructor is at least aware at the next test as the parallax error is quite bad on the vehicle.

    Any tips for the B+E trailer test?

    Thanks for all the advice, test was yesterday and it all went perfectly with 2 minors, until I failed for doing 34 in two 30 zones. My speedo read 30 but the examiner was reading 34 from his seat. Thus, I am now aware I will have to drive way under the speed limit next time, to allow for the...

    Selling etiquette

    To be honest, I would chose which buyer I wanted to go with and ask them to arrange the vetting by Monday evening, I certainly would not string two people along. I'd be uncomfortable being pressured into giving you a deposit this weekend, and I think a fully arranged vetting shows enough...

    Has anyone done the B+E trailer test? Any tips?

    Thank you very much for the jockey wheel advice- I will definitely do that! I was also wondering if you have any tips for reversing the trailer up to the barrier in the box? My trailer has a spare wheel on the back, so I assume that the spare wheel will count towards my trailer being in the...

    Advice needed - bringing a horse back into work after 3 years

    Hi I am looking for some advice, I have a 12 year old horse who suffered a minor tendon injury three years ago and became a companion as I was focusing on another horse. He has been out of full work for the last three years, and has only been lightly hacked in the summer months. He has...

    Fed up of selling my horse!

    Hi I am currently looking, and I am in Hampshire. I thought Pip looked lovely and I very nearly phoned the day the advert went live, however, I was put off because you said she isn't fully fit. I think it would be better if you spent a month getting her jumping fit, so she is ready to get out...

    Help Searching for a new horse, where to look? WWYD? Any ideas?

    Thanks all, it is reassuring to know that i'm not being unreasonable to want to see proper video footage. I completely agree its a good idea to watch a horse compete, I just need to find one local enough to view - nothing on horsequest that i can see at the moment :(

    Help Searching for a new horse, where to look? WWYD? Any ideas?

    Hi Thanks for the idea, do you think they are successful? I did do one for a pony a few years back and ended up with some terribly unsuitable ponies to view, but perhaps that was my bad luck.

    Help Searching for a new horse, where to look? WWYD? Any ideas?

    Hi Age bracket is ideally an 8 year old who is getting established up to the age of 13. I have seen lots of 5/6 year olds but we don't have an arena at the yard so i wouldn't have the facilities to seriously bring a horse on. I am just finding when i request videos I am sent a video of...
