    So what has British Eventing done wrong?

    When I can spend £80 on a PC/RC membership, get regular training, compete up to BE novice, medium/elem dressage and newcomers SJ (well the equivalents anyway) plus excellent championship opportunities and leagues then you look at the cost of BE then the appeal of going affiliated very quickly...

    Trigeminal- mediated headshaking

    I suspect the rearing was more to do with the KS than the head shaking, it was just unfortunate that both things became an issue at the same time. Fingers crossed the PENS therapy works for yours!!

    Trigeminal- mediated headshaking

    Mine was also rearing under saddle and determined to remove his rider. We started investigating the head shaking as that was a very new behaviour (he had always been sharp/reactive) then had his back x-rayed one day when gabapentin was only improving his field behaviour not under saddle and...

    Trigeminal- mediated headshaking

    I had one who had this, was unrideable from March onwards and was only happy in the field when wearing a mask and on 20 something gabapentin a day. We were considering PTS then discovered he also had kissing spines so that was that. He was 12 and had showed no symptoms until that year.

    Favourite breed

    For me it's got to be part TB at least if not full. And ideally if it's part then the rest is ID/connie/NF but I don't mind a bit of warmblood or a good PBA??

    Opinions on Thoroughbreds?

    I've had 2 in a row now (and 2 part bred ones). I love them, they are far more intelligent than most of the WBs I've ridden. Both of mine went into training but never raced. They have their quirks. My current one is a stressy ulcer type but I manage it and it doesn't cause a problem. He's far...
