Any ideas?

A 15.2 mare went lame about 4 months ago on and off it would change every few days,
the owners had the vet out and they mentioned navicular and ringbone etc, the mare was taken for X-rays in wich any bone problems were completely ruled out, and the best equine vet in Northants had a look and comented on how good her navicular bone was.
So the owners were told to Leave her untill she was sound for 2 weeks in a row, this time came and she was then allowed to ride out on feilds 10 mins and gradually build it us very slowly,
But 2 weeks of this still only riding about 40 mins walking and on very soft ground doing a short trot.
Well She's hopping lame again, and the vets are saying to put her in a tiny enclosed area small enough that she cant get into a canter as this horse is a complete nutter in the feild. And she will be going to Camebridge for scans.
Anyone have any idea at all of any thing it could possibly be?
They know it is below the fetlock.
Thanks if you have any idea. X

Very hard to say without seeing the horse or knowing any of its history obviously. How old is the horse? What has it done in its life? I have an ex racehorse who can easily get jarred up just galloping about in the field when the ground is hard. Have had the vet out for him before who could find nothing specific, but just thought to be general wear and tear on the joints.

Age- 10
Done- Notta lot! was brought by current owners at 5 and had only ever competed once(because of foot and mouth apparently) Ridden twice a week, mostly hacking, is a nutter so the owner doesnt canter much. I full on cant understand!
She can Jump VERY big but owner isnt very confidednt so doesnt
