Just wondering if anyone has any? Would love to know more about temperament, characteristics etc.... I have one who's damsire is by him with Connemara (abbeyleix lines) on the other side. Very talented but super quirky. We are getting there (he's 8!!). Thanks!

Thanks rosesandhorses! I got the job and then didn't take it as it wasn't what it made out to be but this is allgood to know for future ref.

Thanks everyone. I'd forgotten about HC which makes sense now re; placings... I'll have every 1 in 4 weekends off so will need to make up the rest of my events mid week. I'm based central - lots around within 2 hours but I do need to go back to the BE calendar and double check all this. It's...

Ace. Thank you. I am going to look over this years BE calendar and tot them up but just want some real life reassurance before I go for it! Re; the pros - what I mean is would it be harder in theory to get placed? As you need placings to qualify or does their placing not count in the %...

I recommend Ardeo Sports Horses - Wicklow, Dublin & Balladeer Sports Horses, Bandon Cork. Both have websites and good reputations. I have personal experience of both if you want to PM me for more info.

Bump....anyone? Ps. The sales are starting early! Rideaway has started eek.

Hello, does anyone know if Amerigo panels can be easily changed? I.e from a 4 to 2 ? And a rough cost.... Thanks all :)

Thanks all for your advice. Goldenstar - that's what I did! I got my vet (who he will be under to scrutinise the x-rays) and he reassured me today that he agrees with the vet who did the vetting. So I'm going to go for it! I also sent to my farrier (to triple check!!) and he gave me his...

Hi Goldenstar, it's pre purchase vetting. It's a highly regarded vet in Ireland (but I've been stung there before). I'm waiting on my own vet to get back to me with his thoughts. Horse appears well and sound and there is no history of lameness.
