After I got so many great responses to my where to go from here thread (see below) I thought Id update on the last few months for those that are interested.

A couple of weeks after the above post, and after months of being not right (not lame but not wanting to go forwards) he went lame in front. Thank God, at last something to go on!!! He went from slightly lame, to sound, to very pottery, back to slightly lame over a few days. It seemed abcessy to me, Trimmer was due and sure enough found it ready to blow out of his heel and with some manipulation it burst there and then. He was a little sore but within a week or so came sound. I got my horse back
But then in true jerry style another week or so later he got a bacterial skin infection which took hold very quickly and left me with a £350 vets bill and a sound horse that was too uncomfortable to ride (see my post, very itchy horse!!!!!!)
So we got this under control and he is now very very slightly lame behind.
I give up, this has not been our year, hes having some field time and Ill start again next year. Roll on 2010
