    Unfortunately, I have no one to ride him, I can't get to the yard any more on a regular basis, which is why I'm selling him, no yards closer either sadly.

    Price advice needed please

    I ask as someone called me this afternoon, the father of a teenage girl that has been riding him, (and she's good) and offerred me £2k which I didn't think was much. I know I will make a loss on him but I thought £2.5k was fair as when he 'perfoms' as he does most of the time he is very very...

    loading

    Park the trailer along side a wall to prevent one side escape route, lunge lines may be useful to discourage running off the ramp at the other side, other than that its patience. If you have access to a trailer I would feed your horse in there everyday until he/she walks calmly in, thus...
