getting your horse hunting fit, book?

[snowstormII]

I have a great old book from the 70's called 'Getting your horse fit' one of the JA Allen series.The language is really old school and although the fittening process still seems ok the feeding advice is a bit outdated now! Is there a modern version of this book? A quick scan of titles relating to horse fitness on amazon brought up stuff showing riders how to get fit, not necessarily the horses. Any suggestions?

Getting Horses Fit by Sarah Pilliner; written 1986 and focussed more on event horses than hunters but the principles remain the same. I am amazed that most people don't seem to know nowadays how to calculate feed requirements for comp horses - this is well explained in this book in my opinion.

Things have moved on in some areas granted - such as rehab of tendon issues - but can't think of any more modern books at the mo.

There was a good one by Jane Holderness-Roddam - fitness for horse and rider.

Ditto this - there is also a good one by Carolyn Henderson.
