Think that's a lot of the problem. It seems that many top riders don't care about the partnership, just the wins. Otherwise why would...

That is realy interesting. One of my RIs had what she described as an 'out and out' competition horse. At home she was a spooky mess and...

This. Why the beef? Seems entirely unnecessary, patronising, arrogant and rude. For no obvious reason 🤷‍♀️ If someone has an issue with...

Me too. I've found a better way. £1500 for a brand new saddle and all accessories and a bit of my time to custom cut some rider shims...

Among the many points this misses, two stand out for me. First, that you don't need to be GP training to be able to see an unhappy...
