Finally got accepted into undisclosed Police service which has been my dream for a very long time. I wanted to hear any opinions of serving officers about keeping riding and horses through the training and during employment? Is it doable? Thanks a ton for any advice!

Sorry if it seemed like i was Carping, i was just curious! I admire her a ton and she has truly turned the tables of our sport. From what i have heard too, she hates fame and just wants to ride her horses..... which is an awesome mentality to have!

Hi all! Just looking for some advice on full seat breeches. Does anyone have any recommendations? They are for Dressage. I'm also a size 28 bottom heavy shape :)

Why can't you stand her? From all accounts she is fantastic and humble. But you are entitled to your opinion.

Talking about the 2018 one that is. Interested to hear people's thoughts. I understand she has a few up and coming horses?

My horse bit a judge before if that helps!!:D I was scared to put this in the original post-but I'm confident now. Last year I gave birth to my lovely daughter, and a few months after she was born I was back in the saddle. Confident as ever, I started jumping again. My mind was ready: my...

Hi all, not looking to humiliate anyone here just needing a laugh at some embarrassing equestrian stories. I'll start. When I was 26, I'm 30 now (time flies) I was at my local horse trials and realised I forgot to pack my riding underwear. I decided to go commando under my jods. Made it...

This is going to sound really stupid- but maybe just give her some time? I had a similar issue with my mare and Just letting her get used to it all helped a lot.

How exiting!!! Planning to have a weekend at home in front of the BBC with a glass of red 😂

Sorry If I have caused any confusion girls! Thanks for all being so kind! After my friend had a bad XC fall schooling I'm always nervous about falling of and becoming disabled or hurting my horse. I embarrass myself every ride anyway :) �� This is going to sound strange, but I...

Me and my OTTB are both keen Eventers, but while he has been getting on with his performances, I have not. I'm a socially anxious rider and person, and my anxiety seems to be getting the best of me. It's really taking the fun out of competitions that me and my horse have worked so hard to take...

Thanks to everyone for their kind comments. It's going to be a long hard year. The news is, she's paralysed. I haven't slept all night. I'm seeing a counsellor in the next few days.

For reasons of anonymity, names and locations won't be discussed. Last weekend I was XC schooling with one of my close friends. As her horse approached one of the fences, he lost his footing and slipped, falling on her. It was a simple unavoidable accident, and her horse was okay, but she...

Title says it all. We all know there is big money in Showjumping, But what about Dressage? Although I'm sure Charolette Dujardin gets a healthy pay check from clinics and Kingsland.

Are their any men's breeches that are "close fitting"? If so, where to get them?
