WWW.BADMINTON-HORSE.CO.UKDirectors Blog October 2024It seems only yesterday that we were wrapping up Badminton 2024, having enjoyed a wonderful event, which included the attendance of HM The Queen, celebrating the 75th Anniversary, alongside a great competition with a very worthy winner in Caroline Powell. Our weekend of sunny weather was something to be envied by many events as the summer unrolled, it really was as though the weather gods came up trumps especially for the 75th Anniversary!I was extremely lucky to attend the Paris Olympics and witness the British eventing team (consisting of Tom McEwen, Laura Collett and Ros Canter) winning Gold. How appropriate that, in our 75th year, two members of the team were past Badminton winners in Laura and Ros and well done to the former for also taking the Bronze individual as, as many of you will know, the 10th Duke of Beaufort started Badminton Horse Trials in order to help the British do better at the Olympics!Now we are on the other side of Burghley and Blenheim and kicking on with the planning of the 2025 event. Having said this, we have not been sitting on our laurels through the summer. Lots of post Badminton 2024 meetings, to discuss what went well, not so well and where definite improvement is needed! The dry weather spells have given Andy Godwin and his team the opportunity to catch up with ground works that did not get done last autumn due to the exceptionally wet time. Eric Winter has the first draft of the cross-country course in hand, while Phil Cole and his team have scarified and overseeded the ground, which will help the grass get away quicker if we have another cold Spring.This month we will be inviting our established exhibitors to return in 2025. Andrew Tucker is busy contacting contractors and I will start to be in touch with our wonderful band of officials and volunteers.It goes without saying that we are incredibly grateful to Mars Equestrian for their continued support as our title sponsor.Heres to the beginnings of bringing together a spectacular Badminton 2025!!0 Комментарии 0 Поделились 3 Просмотры

WWW.HORSEILLUSTRATED.COMVet Adventures: Smelling Like a RoseAfter several painful interactions, I had promised myself that I would no longer provide vet services for Rose. She usually paid her bills on time and followed my instructions, but there was just something about her that always managed to ruin my day. My assistant Kelly didnt like Rose either, but she was generally good at hiding it.Archie NemesisUnfortunately, when a barn manager called about a lame horse a few weeks later, I was busy, and Kelly didnt realize whose horse it was and booked the appointment. When we figured out that it was Roses gelding Archie, Kelly flopped back on her seat and shook her fists at the ceiling.Why does the universe hate me? she wailed.You? Im the one who has to convince her that Im a qualified veterinarian every time I see her horse.Kelly did a perfect Rose imitation. Why didnt you know that my sweet boy was about to go lame? Dont you know I have a show coming up?I started laughing and Kelly continued. My vet back East had such an instinct for these things. Oh well, we cant all be like Dr. Perfect, can we?Second ChoiceThe next morning, we pulled up to the imposing front entrance of Roses barn and punched in our gate code. I pulled into a parking lot full of gleaming Teslas and Tahoes. We didnt have to look far for Rose in her pristine Dubarry barn coat, holding Archie and barking orders at a stall worker. My stethoscope and thermometer were already in my tote, and I added a hoof pick and hoof testers.Hi Rose! Kelly said brightly. Were sorry to hear that Archie isnt feeling well.Rose ignored her and addressed me. The sports medicine team from the university was in the area last week. Theyre really the best, but they wont be back for a month, so I had to call you.The instruments in my kit rattled slightly. Archie, who was badly behaved on a good day, snorted and pranced in place.You have to move slowly and quietly around horses! Rose barked. Theyre very sensitive animals.I gritted my teeth and forced my voice to sound pleasant. What seems to be the problem, Rose?Well, its obviously his right front leg. My trainer saw it from across the barn. We think its the shoulder, but youre the vet.Can you please walk him down the breezeway for me? I said briskly. Rose handed the lead rope to Kelly, and Archie immediately planted his feet and lifted his head, the whites of his eyes showing. Kelly clucked gently to him, but he refused to move.Horses respond best to confidence, said Rose. She snatched the rope from Kelly, whod grown up on a Thoroughbred farm and was an accomplished eventer. Watch what I do here.Rose faced her horse and yanked on the lead, but Archie was mad and raised his head even higher. Then he ran backwards, dragging Rose with him. Kelly and I exchanged looks as Rose scolded him, shook the rope, made weird purring sounds, then got a striped wand and waved it at the horse, who danced away in awkward half-circles.Abscessively WrongOK, you can take him now! Rose panted. Kelly snatched the rope and growled something in Archies ear. She walked off calmly, the big horse following behind her.Archie was absolutely limping on the right front. I gently palpated the leg, looking for heat or swelling, and the big horse tensed when I pressed on a spot on his coronet band. There was a thread of heat running down the outside quarter of the foot.I retrieved my hoof testers and identified a painful area around one of the nails of the shoe.Photo by Gina CioliWhen was he shod? I asked Rose, who made a face at me.Its not his foot. I already told you, its in the shoulder!I looked up at her. Rose, put your hand here and feel the swelling and heat in his coronet. Hes got an abscess, and this shoe may need to come off. Im going to pull this one nail and see if its the problem.Rose was silent as I returned to my truck and grabbed my farrier tools. Soon I was working the nail free from the hoof, and a gush of black-ish pus began to flow from the nail hole. The stench was terrible.Rose gasped. Hes bleeding! What did you do to him?Thats pus, Rose, said Kelly in exasperation. Theres an abscess in his foot.Rose huffed as I flushed the nail holes with a special mixture that I liked. I poulticed the foot, gave Archie a tetanus shot and some pain medicine, and instructed Rose to soak the foot daily. I decided to leave the shoe in place. From experience, I knew that hed be feeling a lot better in a few days.Hocus PoulticeKelly and I returned to recheck Archie on day five, and I decided not to comment on the big glob of poultice on his shoulder. Rose silently haltered Archie, and he walked off smoothly. The heat was gone from his foot and the pain and swelling had resolved.Hes a lot better today, I announced. The infection in the foot is resolving nicely.Yes, my trainer brought by some better poultice, and we also treated his shoulder after you left. Its amazing stuffyou should learn about it.Id had enough of Rose and her trainer, and I looked her right in the eye. Yes, its amazing how draining the pus out of the foot makes the shoulder feel better. You know, you could have put cow manure on that shoulder and Archie would have recovered.Rose blinked in awe. Well, then why didnt you do that instead of making his foot bleed?This edition of Vet Adventures about Rose appeared in the September 2023 issue of Horse Illustratedmagazine.Click here to subscribe!The post Vet Adventures: Smelling Like a Rose appeared first on Horse Illustrated Magazine.0 Комментарии 0 Поделились 7 Просмотры

WWW.JUSTHORSERIDERS.CO.UKTransforming Obese Ponies: A Comprehensive Guide to Achieving Equine Health and VitalitySection Key Points Introduction Transforming an obese pony into a healthy one is both rewarding and challenging. Equine obesity is prevalent and requires effective weight management strategies. Understanding Equine Obesity Obesity poses health risks like laminitis and EMS. Around one third of UK horses are obese. Identifying Obesity in Horses Use Body Condition Scoring, weight tapes, and visible signs for identifying obesity. Breeds Prone to Obesity Welsh ponies, Morgans, Norwegian Fjords and others are predisposed due to "thrifty genes". The Risks of Obesity Includes health issues like laminitis, EMS, and osteoarthritis. Strategies for Weight Loss Diet Management: Control calorie intake, emphasize hay. Exercise: Increase activity, ensure consistency. Monitoring Progress: Regular measurements and visual inspections. Case Study: Turbos Journey Steps include dietary changes, exercise regimen, and consistent monitoring, leading to noticeable improvements. Conclusion Commitment to diet management, exercise, and monitoring can prevent health risks. Ensure vitality and well-being in ponies. Additional Resources Resources include seminars and articles providing insights into managing obesity, EMS, and strategies for weight management. From Feral to Fabulous: Transforming an Obese Pony into a Picture of HealthIntroductionThe journey of transforming an obese pony into a healthy, vibrant one is both rewarding and challenging. With equine obesity becoming increasingly prevalent, understanding effective strategies for weight management is essential. This article will delve into the various steps necessary to guide your pony towards optimal health, supported by expert insights and cutting-edge research.Understanding Equine ObesityEquine obesity is more than just a cosmetic concern; it poses significant health risks, including laminitis, Equine Metabolic Syndrome (EMS), and osteoarthritis. Research estimates that around one third of UK horses are considered obese, underscoring the importance of addressing this issue (source).Identifying Obesity in HorsesAccurately identifying obesity in horses is crucial for implementing successful weight loss strategies. Key indicators include: Body Condition Scoring: Evaluates fat deposits on areas like the neck, withers, back, and tail head. Weight Tapes: While not entirely precise, they offer a reliable means of tracking weight fluctuations over time. Visible Signs: Fat depositions may result in a "cresty" neck, puffy tail heads, and swollen mammary glands.Breeds Prone to ObesityCertain breeds are genetically predisposed to obesity and EMS, including Welsh ponies, Morgans, Norwegian Fjords, and others. These breeds often possess "thrifty genes" that served them well in natural settings but are less suitable in modern environments with sedentary lifestyles and abundant food.The Risks of ObesityObesity in horses can lead to severe health complications: Laminitis: A painful and potentially fatal condition linked to insulin resistance and excessive carbohydrates. EMS: Equine Metabolic Syndrome involves insulin dysregulation, complicating weight management (source). Osteoarthritis: Excess weight can strain joints, increasing the risk of osteoarthritis.Strategies for Weight LossTurning an obese pony into a healthy, fit one involves a multi-pronged approach:Diet Management Restrict Calorie Intake: Shift from free-access feeding to a controlled diet, particularly limiting access to nutrient-rich grass. Emphasize Hay: Use hay as the primary food source to prevent insulin spikes. Remember, "hay is for horses."Exercise Increase Activity: Encourage regular exercises like walking, hill climbing, and interval training to enhance insulin sensitivity. Consistency is Key: Regular, even mild exercise contributes significantly to overall health improvements.Monitoring Progress Regular Measurements: Continue using weight tapes and body condition scores to track progress diligently. Visual Inspections: Regularly assess visible fat deposits and overall condition.Case Study: Turbos JourneyAn inspiring success story is that of Turbo, a pony diagnosed with EMS after a laminitis scare. Here are the key steps taken: Dietary Changes: Transition to controlled access to grass fields and night-time stabling. Exercise Regimen: Introduce walking and variable terrain activities as part of his routine. Consistent Monitoring: Regular evaluation with weight tapes and visual checks ensured noticeable improvements.ConclusionThe path from a feral to a fabulous pony is paved with commitment, informed decisions, and a proactive approach to equine health. With careful diet management, exercise, and consistent monitoring, you can prevent dire health risks and help your pony thrive with vitality and well-being.

WWW.JUSTHORSERIDERS.CO.UKDiscover If Professional's Choice Girths Are The Perfect Fit For Your Sensitive HorseAspect Details VenTECH Technology Features ventilated, non-slip neoprene liner for heat and moisture escape. Detachable liner for easy cleaning. Pressure Distribution Elastic on both ends for even pressure distribution, reduces chafing risk. Durability Typically lasts 2-3 years, potentially up to 4-5 years with careful use. User Feedback Positively reviewed by owners of sensitive horses for reducing discomfort. Versatility Available in multiple models, sizes (38-56 inches), and colors (black, chocolate). Price Competitively priced, usually between $99.95 and $115.95. Key Benefits Ventilation and Breathability Even Pressure Distribution Durability Ease of Maintenance Positive User Feedback Are Professional's Choice Girths Worth the Investment for Sensitive Horses? When it comes to the comfort and well-being of your horse, especially those with sensitive skin, choosing the right girth is crucial. Professional's Choice girths, particularly those featuring their patented VenTECH technology, have garnered significant attention for their comfort, durability, and innovative design. In this blog, we delve into whether these girths are indeed worth the investment for horses with delicate skin. VenTECH Technology: A Game Changer for Comfort Professional's Choice girths equipped with VenTECH technology stand out due to their unique features. The VenTECH system includes a ventilated, non-slip neoprene liner that conforms to the horse's body, allowing heat and moisture to escape. This design ensures that the horse remains cool and comfortable, even during intense activities. The neoprene liner is detachable, making it easy to clean and maintain, which is particularly beneficial for horses prone to sweating and skin irritation. Even Pressure and Reduced Chafing One of the key benefits of Professional's Choice VenTECH girths is their ability to distribute pressure evenly. The girths feature elastic on both ends, which helps in providing a uniform pull and reducing the risk of chafing and discomfort. This is especially important for sensitive horses, ensuring that no single area bears excessive pressure. Durability and Longevity Investing in a girth is not just about the initial cost; it's also about the long-term value. Professional's Choice recommends replacing girths every 2-3 years, depending on usage. However, many users have reported that these girths last longer, with some claiming they endure up to 4 or 5 years before showing significant signs of wear. User Feedback and Recommendations Feedback from horse owners is a strong indicator of a product's effectiveness. Many owners of sensitive horses have reported positive experiences with Professional's Choice VenTECH girths. For instance, a user on the Chronicle Forums mentioned that their thin-skinned Thoroughbred mare showed no discomfort with the VenTECH girth, unlike with other girths that caused chafing and pressure points. Versatility and Availability Professional's Choice offers a range of VenTECH girths to suit different needs and preferences. These include the SMx English Girth, the VenTECH Contoured Jump Girth, and various other models designed for specific types of riding and horse builds. The girths are available in multiple sizes, from 38 to 56 inches, and come in black and chocolate colors. Price Considerations While Professional's Choice girths are an investment, they are generally priced competitively. The SMx English Girth, for example, is available for around $99.95 to $115.95, depending on the retailer. Given their durability and comfort, many owners find this to be a worthwhile investment for their horses' well-being. Complement Your Girth with Other Riding Essentials In addition to the right girth, you'll want to equip yourself and your horse with quality riding gear. Explore our Jodhpur Collection, Horse Riding Boot Collection, or browse our Horse Riding Gloves Collection to ensure you're fully prepared for your equestrian adventures. Conclusion For sensitive horses, the right girth can make a significant difference in their comfort and performance. Professional's Choice girths, with their VenTECH technology, offer several key benefits: Ventilation and Breathability: Ensures the horse stays cool and dry. Even Pressure Distribution: Reduces the risk of chafing and discomfort. Durability: Lasts longer than many other girths on the market. Ease of Maintenance: Detachable neoprene liner for easy cleaning. Positive User Feedback: Recommended by many owners of sensitive horses. Given these advantages, Professional's Choice girths are indeed worth the investment for sensitive horses. They provide a combination of comfort, durability, and ease of maintenance that can significantly enhance your horse's riding experience.

WWW.YOURHORSE.CO.UKFabulous Thoroughbreds to line up for the SEIB Racehorse to Riding Horse Final at HOYSA former Cheltenham Gold Cup who won over 1 million in prize money, a 20-year-old veteran, an ex-racer purchased with inheritance money and a further 11 versatile Thoroughbreds enjoying a successful second career will line up for the SEIB Racehorse to Riding Horse Final at Horse of the Year Show (HOYS) this week.They are due in the Andrews Bowen International Arena at 11.50am on Wednesday 9 October 2024. Here are the ex-racehorses who have earned a prestigious ticket to the final:As I See ItThis 12-year-old bay gelding was bred by the Kelvin-Hughes and is by Kings Theatre. He was in training with Harry Fry during his racing days. As I See It is ridden by farrier Loti Innes-Parry. The amateur rider has owned the horse, who came from Sally Taylors racehorse rehabilitation yard, for three years.CaraghannCaraghann was sent to his current owner/rider Jasean Spraggett for pre-training by Ian Williams when he was three.Caraghann wasnt suited to racing and Ian knew Jasean loved the horse, so when the opportunity to have him came up Jasean took him on, thinking he would make a nice hunter or a working show horse.Caraghann is the first horse Jasean has ever owned and competed, and this is his first season showing. Jasean is aiming him at the Working Show Horse circuit in 2025.Falloway DubreauEve Nicholls now owns and rides Falloway Dubreau, the Thoroughbred she looked after during his racing days at Fergal OBriens yard. Eve, who still works part-time for Fergal, rode him out and led the horse up in all his races.Falloway Dubreau ran in point-to-points and over hurdles but never made it to fences. He retired as a six-year-old and then Eve took him on.The duo also won the dressage at the RoR Championships at Aintree this year.Festive FareFestive Fare was owned by Sheikh Mohammed during his racing days and came to his current owner Diana Taylor via Godolphin Rehoming.A successful racehorse, Festive Fare ran nine times during his racing days and was a group winner at Kempton. He cost 264,000 as a foal.He is piloted in the ring by amateur rider Rebecca Court, a former winner of the SEIB Racehorse 2 Riding Horse Final in 2017 with Beware Chalk Pit.First FandangoOwned and ridden by Hannah Chisman, this 15-year-old bay gelding won over 68,000 during his racing career with wins on the flat, over hurdles and over fences.He was trained by Tim Vaughan and ran at the Cheltenham Festival on four occasions. The horse last ran in May 2017.This is First Fandangos fourth consecutive visit to HOYS. With Hannah, his best placing is eighth in 2022. He was ridden to fifth by interim jockey Lizzie Harris last year, when Hannah was recovering from a knee injury.Hannah previously campaigned First Fandangos full brother, Nicene Creed, who also contested the Racehorse to Riding Horse final.First Fandango also events at BE100 level, team chases and showjumps. According to Hannah, he still loves going up on the gallops and helping with the racehorsesGrandads LegacyJenni Powell has owned Grandads Legacy since he was a yearling. He was in training with Sam and Ali Strong and ran on the flat as a two- and three-year old.When Jennis late father left her some money, she spent it on Billy, as the horse is known at home.Billy had great natural balance and so I thought if he didnt make the grade on the racecourse he would always have another job to go to, says Jenni.It turned out he didnt like the stalls and racing wasnt for him, so we turned him away before slowly bringing him back to retrain as a show horse.Jenni used to show ponies and horses when she was younger and had ponies at HOYS 20 years ago. Grandads Legacy will be ridden by Skye Houldsworth at HOYS.MigrationEight-year-old Migration won over 200,000 in prize money when he was in training with David Menuisier.
