Bump :)

Thank you, she's a very exciting one for the future I think :) She's always looked very "grown up"! I bought her straight from the breeder as a 2yo and she looked pretty much the same haha! Thank you :) I'm obviously biased but she's the prettiest horse I've owned Haha ;)

My mare as a 3yo just backed

I would say black would be fine, they are quite generous, and have to be fastened snugly for the action to work.

I got one for my 5yo who started to feel her feet a little and realized her strength this winter! It has been a massive help both in turnout and loading, and I made sure to spend time in the school doing groundwork with her wearing it. I think it is important to practice getting the "pressure -...

I'm a bit of sucker for gloves and have many, many pairs, these are definitely my new favourites :D

I've just brought a pair of Woof Wear event gloves, supper thin, super light weight and mega grippy. I also have a pair of Neuman gloves which are incredibly grippy but a bit thicker. For winter I just brought a pair of silk glove liners that are thin enough to wear under riding gloves without...

It cost me £40 for a shoe to be replaced when I did not have the shoe and the horse had taken off part of the hoof with it!! Yes is was expensive, but it did take him almost 40 minutes as he had to change the placement of the nails and ensure that the balance was still right and the horse...
