Hey all, I’m looking for advice. I am in my 20’s with an undying love for all things horsey. My dream is to work in the equestrian circuit one day but my only concern is that in which area. I have great GCSES, ok Alevels and a PA course behind me. I’ve worked in a few companies doing admin...

Hey, AM competing at 90 at the moment on my youngster and hoping to move up to 100. Am doing the 100 at Sapey in september as we've schooled around there and are more then comfortable. What is everyone elses opinions on Monmouth, Pontispool, Weston, Broadway, Kelsall ? We're pretty good at...

Hey, I'm just about to start competing affiliated and am wondering where everyone buys their Stopwatches from, I'm pleased about BE continuing the trial at 90 and above (or 80) but don't know where to start with stopwatches. i've seen some advertised - for instance the ones in the BE handbook...

Hay is less fattening

I would say the best is through friends. Tell someone who knows a lot of people in the horse world. This way means that you know they are from a reliable source. Also look at - Horsequest and Horse and hound - horses of the week are a good place to start :)

Okay i'll definitely take a look into it. Thanks for your advice :)

My mum looks after that side

This sounds familar although one day she can be a different horse! I rode her in the school this weekend and her canter leads although she got them every time where stiff and felt all wrong. I popped her over a small cross pole hoping to loosen her up but she landed nearly on top of the jump and...

That sounds similar. We originally thought she was cold backed. She has phases where she is like a different horse. i'm most worried about her canter. I rode her in the school yesterday and decided to lightly jump her and she was saw a stride a long way off and then landed heavily which is...

She has already been assessed and they gave us no diagnosis other than 'a weeks rest' .. They told us to see a back specialist but she has seen 3 different physios!

she has bucked once but that was due to her saddle nearly touching her ears (she had changed shape but it is sorted now) and to running after the fence she always tended to run before never after..

A horse of mine once had cushings. It is normally a tumour on the pituitary gland. Their hair becomes long and wavy which is the most noticeable symptom. Although they also tend to urinate more and drink a lot more than a normal horse would as their immune system is being affected. :)
