My lad is a PRE (pure bred spanish horse) and I can certainly vouch for the breed as being very versatile horses. My lad (at 4) jumps, hacks, schools (he picked up leg yield and shoulder in in a couple of 20 minute sessions!), he has been to his first clear round show and was impeccably behaved...

Mine will be 5 in March so is only just a 4 year old! At the moment he is being sorted by my lovely YO as I broke my collarbone and associated ribs 3 weeks ago! At present he is exercised 6 days out of 7 and mainly hacks, but will be schooled for 2 of the 6 days, is lunged at least once a...

Thanks a lot TP, I'm hoping that my operation will fall at the end of my recovery for my collarbone so that I can get it all done in one go!!! I'm so lucky in as much as my fab YO has him of full livery for me and is a dab hand at bringing on youngsters. She has done plenty with him previously...

Chalk another statistic up for the equine injury tally! I had an impromptu flying lesson courtesy of my young man a fraction over 3 weeks ago. I landed on my right shoulder and unsurprisingly - he threw in a MASSIVE buck when he thought some trees were going to eat him alongside the school...

My young Bo is brave as a lion and a walking oesophagus - if he ever met a predator he'd most likely try to eat it himself!

I am fortunate that my lad was barefoot in Spain and only had front shoes on for a couple of months when he came over to the UK before they were taken off again - as a consequence he already has rock hard feet. He's on Alpha-A lite, Baileys fibre cubes, garlic and biotin and has my local...

Thanks to all of you guys for responding to my thread, I didn't realise it would be so popular!! I know I'm not alone in having had my confidence restored by a wonderful horse but it is so nice to hear similar stories! :D LaurenBay, JFTD and Annielusian - your horses are all beautiful! :)...

I had a bit of a sentimental moment as I was riding my new horse last night - I would not be sat on this young hooligan and chasing him on, without the help and patience of a wonderful confidence giving pony - she's very well known on HHO, she's the wonderful Genie owned by Miss_C. Thank you...

Good luck! Hope it goes as well as her debut! :p

Poor, poor moggy! He's very lucky to have such a dedicated owner. Major healing vibes for puss and big hugs for you - have a slice of chocolate cake and keep your chin up! ;)

Thanks F, I've emailed Alex for prices etc. The only concern I have is the price though as I could be oput of action for anything up to 6 or 7 weeks.... Hate being in plaster already and it's only bee since Friday! Do you happen to know any contact details for Julia Bodman? If she's good and...

Thanks annaellie, I'll take a look. He will need a firm hand as he is a bit rude and ignorant at the moment!

Hi all. I'm afraid I need a bit of help from those in the know! I have had the misfortune of fracturing a bone in my wrist and have been put in plaster, putting all of my plans with my lovely new boy on hold for a while - I'm on strict instructions not to do anything with him. :( As he...

Mary King (ofcourse!) & King William Pippa Funnel & Primmores Pride WFP & Tamarillo Lucinda Fredericks (if we could have her back) and Hedley Brittania or.... Zara Phillips and Toytown I'd have to agree with your list with the addition of Jeanette Brakewell and Over to You!

Go for it! She's such a good girlie and it'd do her good to go to a different type of party! :p
