It's common in a lot of horses, my TB's legs do, as long as the swelling goes once the horse is moving, I wouldn't worry

Yes, mine too. I always find once he's got used to coming in again at night , after a few weeks, they don't fill at all. So hopefully yours will improve as the winter goes on, but shouldn't be anything to worry about if they go down when he moves around a bit.

Could be due to high amounts of protein in diet....rich haylage can cause it. If you are feeding haylage consider mixing some hay in with it.
Don't worry if the swellings going when walking around in field or being ridden....my horses legs fill over night but goes once moving!
