Hi All

my horse was diagnosed with (via MRI) :-
Right fore:-
moderate navicular changes
bone oedema to the pedal bone
inactive core lesion to his ddft (apparently this means old tear)
active tendinopathy to his ddft
mild arthritic changes to his coffin joint

Left fore :-
mild navicular changes

Prior to this diagnosis we were competing at newcomers/1.10 SJ. Do you think he will come back to this level?

i am extremely lucky that he is a saint to hack and i have also nannied others on fun rides etc so i know he would have a second life doing this, but i just want to know what my chances are from your perspectives.

He is currently out on 6 months paddock rest and i am transitioning him to barefoot.
