    How much to charge a sharer

    Hi, I have a fab sharer 😍 to me it was finding the right person rather than money. My sharer pays half cost of shoeing, £35, in return for riding about 3 times week. Also happy for her to compete whenever she likes and obviously, she foots the bill for this

    Hacking ex-racers

    Nothing fazes my boy at all bless him! Took a while for him to hack out alone but with lots of patience and no rushing, he'll quite happily go now. As someone else said, he can be a bit fresh at times in an open field, but has never bombed off with me. Sure you will be fine :)
