Episode #81: Gauging A Horse’s Suitability For Sport

When we do a trial ride on a horse we are looking at a demonstration of what the horse’s body is capable of at that exact moment. It may not be a good indication of its sustainability, suitability and long term soundness.

Join me for this episode where I chat about why we need a better measurement to make decisions about the body’s preparedness for sport.
