I know I have seen this but can't find anything now on the board.
And would my mare be suitable for a share? so mare is 16.3, ex intermediate event and I want to share her as a hack. She is brilliant out hacking, very focused, non spooky so is a complete joy to ride after hacking out my somewhat more jumpy younger horse. She is not a complete novice ride - while she is very straightforward, she is also quick off the leg and will not tolerate being grabbed in the mouth. I ride her in the laziest fashion, relaxed and loose rein. She is also very sensitive to seat aids and weight having got athritis in her neck (which is why she is ridden on a long rein). She is helpfully working with me to train new staffie and sisters staffie about hacking out as ignores dogs being a little idiotic.
Hacking is also really lovely where we are with hardly any roadwork. My reasons for sharing are a: cost obviously b: attention for my mare c: time. Not looking to loan her out or send her away as she is 22 and very settled. Neither am I looking to cover all my costs either - I don't want her working flat out to cover these but some money towards my basic bills would be appreciated. Ideally would also be someone who might like to do some in hand showing as I do have transport and she loves parties! (say in hand as I won't ask her to do a test anymore)
