I have never done showing before but I have a 2 year old sports gelding. He is quite fine and have been told he would be good in hack classes. I know there are sports horse classes but not at the show I am going to in April. What turnout is expected? Is it any colour tweed? I don't have a...

Can anyone let me know what towing capacity I would need or suggest cars that are suitable. I have a b + e license. And an ifor 511 and one horse that weighs 560kg. I only ever tow one horse. I’m confused if I need a car to tow 2.7 tonnes even though I don’t ever reach that weight or if...

I'm looking at moving yards and looking at what facilities I need to have and can do without. We either seem to have expensive full livery yards with indoor walker indoor stables etc to diy yard with sand outdoor arena outdoor stables and not really much else but considerably cheaper. They...

Definitely maybe we are being unrealistic. He's really just looking for somewhere to give him a break or a foot in the door. Fully understand that it's long hours for not a lot of pay. Current set up is no accommodation or any perks. So he has a car to run and has to pay basic living. Problem is...

What is the course like here? We have done a be80 and I'm unsure whether to move up to the 90 or not

Any suggestions for horse having problems with going into water? Twix jumps everything else confidently but will not go through water. We eventually get through but it's disheartening. We've just done some local ode but hope to do a be80 soon, we are going to hire some place a to practice...
