    Calling all ROR enthusiasts!

    Slight long shot but I have been trying to track down any videos or pictures of the ror series at county shows, with little success! I would really like to aim towards taking my exracer to one of these at the end of the summer. I just wondered if anyone could offer opinions on how to improve...

    My ex-racer journey!

    Sorry not quite sure how to quote but TPO, no Heros did not tell me why he was sent back etc but just said that basically we were a more suitable match. He previously went to an equestrian college! So I was aware he had a bit of umph behind him but didn't realise the amount. The bucking was a...

    My ex-racer journey!

    Thank you everyone for all your lovely replies! I hated his name as cowboy, that was why I changed it. He got it though apparently because he used to just bronc when the stalls opened! I guess he just needed the time and attention to change! He has never had any really bad habits under...

    Complaining when 'professional' has not done as asked?

    ahh sorry should have explained better, I mean shock as in yes static! Unsure whether it was instigated by the machine she used before hand or just a coincidence! Not sure if she is part of a board I will go have a look now!

    Complaining when 'professional' has not done as asked?

    Brief long story outlined here! Had a physio out to check over horse. She basically watched me lunge/ride, then warmed up his back, started to work on his back and was giving him electric shocks. Just as one of those things that happens. She then said he was too tense to do work today. I...

    Horse not lifting one hind hoof..ideas?!

    The hamstring injury was on that same hind leg. I wondered whether maybe it was sore to pick it up however when he was sore on it previously you could really tell in his gait etc! Definitely see what you all mean through other side being the possible culprit. Hmm is there anyway I could tell...

    Tagula foals?

    This is my first ever post on this forum so I hope it works! I have an ex racer by Tagula, no strange markings but he has a lot of white flecks through his coat even though he is more brown than bay! He is super laid back now, not so when I got him! Great horse :) Will try and post some pics!
