Thanks for all you advise Will give things a go and let you know how it gets on I think there is an issue with her being the dominant mare in the field and not wishing to give into me.. but other than this vice - she's a joy to own, sweet and gentle in and around the stable and fun and...

Great horse, stunning location - and you both looked like you enjoyed the lesson Brilliant! :D

I've tried a version of this over a few days - and she just doesn't do the 'come up to you' bit - she snatches a few blades of grass, or stands and dozes! This all seems to be getting worse - I could do with some one telling me what to do from the side lines! And the annoying thing today...

Thank you everyone for your contributions! :D My main problem with NFU is that they want a vets cert, which means paying out c £130 plus the premium! Will try amtrust though. Has anyone used horse-insurance.co.uk? Their pricing structure looks good, as you can pick and choose what to cover.

Can I please have your recommendations for a good horse insurance company, good price, reliable and covers all the basic requirements? I've got a 13 year old arab x mare, fit and healthy - I don't see the point in paying out for a vetting, as she's not that valuable - but I'd like to cover her...
