My daughters event horse has just had seven very small melanomas lasered from under his tail. The results have been fabulous. One larger melanoma at the base of his tail left a large area to heal and the wounds do tend to get a little bigger as the flesh dies away. The smaller wounds healed...

Many thanks for your info- really helpful to know before turning up. Good luck Llee94!

Can anyone tell me what the xc is like? And how would you rate it in comparison to Chasworth and Gatcombe? Many thanks

My daughter has had a couple of sessions with Anne-Marie through BE training. I would highly recommend and jump at the opportunity to spend time with her. She has a huge amount of experience and a ton of knowledge to pass on. A really positive experience -she seemed engaged to each rider/horse...

Hi there. My daughter was due to do this today but sadly had to withdraw. If you begin your 15m circle a good distance beyond B ( and obviously before F) this makes your return to M less steep and gives you more time to establish the change of rein. Aim to return to the track a couple of...

Sorry for slow reply. Old boy is 16 hand TB and I feed 400grams twice a day which is roughly a third of a round scoop.

I have owned a naturally skinny thoroughbred for 20 years. I have literally tried every feed possible including conditioning mixes, linseed, sugar beet and barley rings. I finally realised that I was actually just feeding him too much in quantity in my efforts to keep his weight up. Last year I...

I think this is the very best thing I have ever read on h and h forum. I am thrilled for both of you but especially Silver.

Hi 4x4, yes I have fed this to my gelding for the last couple of years. He is a 14yr old TB gelding and had a bout of tying up which led to me speaking to DOdson and Horrell feed adviser. This was the feed she recommended along with a chaff type feed and Daily mins and Vits supplement. It is not...

I have owned my triple axle equitrek for 5 years now having previously owned an IW. They are both great trailers but I couldn't go back to just the IW now as I am so used to all the space and storage in the equitrek. It is much easier to compete from as if you are only competing one horse you...
