I did suspect as much with my fella and started him on Equisure and then Succeed and it seems to make a huge difference but pony is still 1/10 lame off hind and is positive to a flexion but only for a few steps - nothing is obvious and hock x-rays are ok.

I have had the same problem and it was found to be the SI joint. My boy had both gastric and Hindgut Ulcers so once the gastric ones were sorted he was moving better at the front but still sore hind quarters.

We have now found he has a Hock problem so that is being sorted.

Alsyxxx (think that is her user name) posted about this with her TB.

Might be worth PMing her if someone can confirm her user name.
