On Thursday I posted about M weezing badly after cantering . I've rested him since then and spoken to his owner about getting the vet to take a look at him.
My orginal post with details of weezing
This morning he looked so peed off at being left behind again whilst the others hacked out that I thought I would take him and go easy.
Full of the joys of spring he marched off the yard at high speed and insisted on canter when the chance arose spooking as he went. His stamina during the canter was as normal and his breathing was only a little noisy when pulled up with some discharge from both nostrils (he's always a little noisy).
His temperature, attitude, eating and resting respiratory rate are all normal and the discharge (which only appears after work) is clear/white so nothing's pointing towards an infection so both his owner and I are tempted to leave the vet, carry on working him and see how he is next week.
In your opinions, is this a unnecessary gamble??
