How soon after...

[0310Star]

How soon after Tildren can you ride your horse again?
My vet is on holiday and nobody else in the practice can give a definite answer. My horse had it done last year but I cant remember exactly how long it was, a couple days maybe?
She is having it topped up on Friday 23rd and I am hopefully entering dressage on Sunday 25th... is this too soon? She is fit and healthy so it is only a top of before the insurance runs out due to how well it worked before!

Just wondered if anybody knew on here as I think I need to send in my entry before he is back!

Yes probably too soon.

I have managed to speak to the show organisers and they can take my fee a little later so that I get a chance to speak to my vet before entering!
thanks

I had to wait 3 days before riding- but that was the first time he'd had it so it may be different as a top up!

My vet advised 1 day box rest, 2 day off, 1 week walking, back to full work after 2 weeks for mine. However other people with the same vet havent had the same so i guess it depends on the horse.

Personally i would cancel you entry.

The first time she had it she was ridden 4 days later (Im pretty sure this was more due to my time to be able to ride than the time the vet had said to wait) he did say that it has better results with work though to help it along.
I'm going to speak to my vet as soon as he is back and see what he says!
Luckily I don't have to enter before speaking to him.
Thank you everyone
