Why? They are both more than capable. It’s not a huge mistake at all! A very confident duo.

suspensory desmitis
Probably from being overweight….. I’d be interested to know what’s caused it. Miri will be thriving now she knows what’s wrong until she gets bored of that issue and try’s to find something else wrong.

PSD is often caused by poor conformation behind and is also commonly seen in dressage horses where a lot of strain is put on the hind legs.
I have many years of experience of this condition, sadly. First port of call for me with ridden issues such as unwilling to canter, swapping leads, bunny hopping, napping/reluctance to go forwards is to scan the suspensories. I scan anything I am unsure about.
Why a professional like Miri has not considered this before is quite strange. It’s almost first on my radar.
 
She should have got a full vet work up like Evie has just done with Maggie. Then she will have plenty of issues to report on!
 
Some established allround partnerships that can actually ride a consistent dressage test and jump a decent course is all I am after!
I saw Eventing Ozzy and Ella Horses apply, I like them both!

That made me so angry. Where did the love for horses end that made someone pick up a destructive tool to try and get a place on a team??? Electricity?! Doping your 'best friend' to gain a percentage or two? Sociopathic behaviour and does no favours to the vast majority of us that love all things horse and even if we compete, we do it as a partnership and not a dictatorship. Shame on them and I hope they get outed and banned.

I believe they’re talking about Morgan Barbancon Mestre. If these allegations are true, there should be severe consequences indeed.

The worrying thing is she’s only about 30 - there’s no doubt in my mind she has learnt all of these practices from her trainers over the last couple of decades.

Have you seen the Ponease riot kick off?!
It’s such a scam.

Where did she say she’s going for the 100?
 
I don’t get it…… Meg is selling Moose….. and Bryni, why breed them? And she’s also talking of selling Brego because she doesn’t think he’s going to be big enough he did come from a 14hh pony mare! Oh but her mum puts a lot of time and effort into their breeding I’ve never heard so much rubbish.

Well, she was trained by the queen of rollkur Anky v Grunsven originally. She's been training with Gareth Hughes, not sure if she still is but she certainly was as of last year and sice 2021...

I would be fairly certain that Gareth would neither tolerate nor condone such methods.

Her mum puts effort into looking at colour genetics, not conformation or temperament (ie why breed from Bear!?)

Do you follow dressage hub? She has a tiktok and fakebook account, not sure about instagram. I’m sure she posted a video a little while ago of Gareth Hughes and the horse wouldn’t stretch down and take the rein after the test, so while I doubt he does tolerate that sort of training who knows what goes on behind closed doors. There are plenty of reasons why the horse didn’t stretch down and if it’s the one of his that doesn’t then I doubt it’s down to harsh training.
