An eye for the future

Buying a young horse can be a real investment and a chance to own a potentially top class horse at an affordable price

to make the horse their own and shape its education and future from the beginning. Taking on a youngster is a huge responsibility, but if you get to know him and, if necessary, have the right back-up, doing it yourself can be less stressful – for the horse as well as for you.

Counting the costs

In the racing world, it’s common practice to buy young horses, especially yearlings, in the hope that they will quickly grow into profit. And now clever buyers are also doing this with top class dressage, event and show jumping prospects, reckoning that because many breeders

are cutting back, it will become harder to find good four- and five-year-olds that are ready to go – and this is the age group many riders want. While it isn’t a cheap option to buy a foal with top bloodlines and prospects, especially if you count in the time, patience and running costs, shrewd and lucky buyers may find a £3,500-£10,000 foal that has a vastly increased value as a just-backed four-year-old. Even top riders who have owners wanting them to ride their horses are setting up nurseries, buying or breeding prospects. They then often sell them to owners but keep the ride. Andrew Nicholson’s top ride, Avebury, is an example. Andrew not only won the 2012 Land Rover Burghley Horse Trials on the 12-yearold, he has also been awarded the £1,000 British Breeding breeder’s prize. He bred Avebury by putting a TB mare to Caroline Bates’ international event sire Jumbo and sold him to long-term event horse owners Rosemary and Mark Barlow. If you’re really lucky and have an enormous amount of talent, you could also emulate Carl Hester, who bought Charlotte Dujardin’s double Olympic gold medallist ride Valegro as a two-year-old. “We’ve learned together,” says Charlotte of her wonder horse. Denise Mitchell, of Gamblethorpe Hanoverians, always looks on the foals she buys on the Continent to re-sell here as investments, but says there is more to it than money. “You couldn’t buy the same quality threeor four-year-old at a comparably reasonable price unless it had a history of physical or mental problems,” she believes. “Also, a lot of people who buy them want to bond with them as babies and know how they tick before breaking them in.”

The real satisfaction

While it’s nice to see a horse grow in value, most owners say the satisfaction of building a relationship with a young horse is priceless.

Charlotte Dujardin’s Olympic double gold medal-winning ride Valegro was bought by Carl Hester as a two-year-old

“It’s one of the nicest things I’ve ever done with a horse,” says Sarah Shephard of the past four years spent educating her now five-yearold Welsh Section D, Wishaw Jack Daniels. “You get to know them so well. When I first thought about buying a yearling, I thought I could do the groundwork but would have to get someone else to back him. But while it obviously depends on your horse, getting on shouldn’t be an issue because there’s no rush. “You end up with such a good relationship with your horse and I’ve had enormous satisfaction from backing him myself. There was no pressure to do things within a certain time and, although every horse has its moments, he trusts me. “The third time ever that I jumped him, he coped happily with bright, shiny fillers in an indoor school. He didn’t care, because everything I’ve asked him to do has been fine.” Sarah, who runs a PR company looking after some of the biggest names in the worlds of horse and pet care, knew exactly what she was

looking for. “I wanted a yearling that would be up to height and make a good old-fashioned riding type that moved from the shoulder,” she said. “I knew a well-set head and neck would be helpful and I wanted a horse that was built slightly uphill.” Her previous experience with Welsh Cobs enabled her to identify suitable breeding lines to predispose a trainable temperament, but although she spotted Jack in the Builth specialist Welsh breeds auction catalogue, she wasn’t able to go. However, it seemed that Jack and she were meant to link up. Sarah spoke to several breeders and one forwarded an advert to her showing a yearling for sale. It was Jack, who had been one of several foals bought by someone who later sold some of them on. “I spoke to his breeder, who confirmed that he was everything I was looking for,” she said. “He was miles away in Blackburn, but a friend was moving a horse to Yorkshire at just the right time and the transport lorry was coming back empty.” After seeing photos from all angles, Sarah bought Jack over the phone and the first time she saw him in the flesh was when he came off the lorry. He’s been a delight from day one and Sarah looks on him as a life-long partner. “When you buy them like this you have the full history,” she pointed out. “You know everything that went right and everything that went wrong.” Sarah has brought Jack on slowly to give him maximum chance to mature physically and mentally and the results speak for themselves. The day after hacking through the centre of a seaside town to ride on the beach, which he did without turning a hair, they entered their first dressage competition – and won. She’s also started jumping him, which he loves, and plans to hunt him. “It’s not magic,” she insisted. “I’ve just treated him with respect, but also treated him like a horse.” HD tel: 01733 468000

l It’s important to have access to the facilities needed to bring a young horse on safely. A yard with a school, well-fenced paddocks and access to off-road hacking is ideal.

0s for 1,00 es of hors e for sal

l You need to be honest with yourself as to whether you have the necessary experience to bring a young horse on, and have a support network that will enable you to fulfil your aims. l Are you really prepared to wait months, or even years, to have a horse you can fully ride? l It’s wise to weigh up the costs of keeping your young horse at livery, including feed, farriery, insurance and vet’s bills, until he’s of an age you can ride and compete. It may be that he’s not such a ‘bargain’ once this is taken into account.

You end up with such a good relationship with Your horse Sarah Shephard

l If you’re thinking of buying a young horse, enlist the help of a good support team. An instructor who can offer honest, constructive advice is hugely valuable.

By the time he was ready for me to get on him, he’d worn a saddle and I’d long reined him all over the place, including round an industrial estate. “It meant he learned all about steering and saw lots of things. I also did ride and lead with him before I broke him, with me on an older horse leading him and someone riding behind so that if he lagged behind, she could ride up to get him to close ranks.” Until now Victoria has often bought, backed and sold a youngster alongside an established horse to help fund her competing, but neither Barney nor Bertie will be moving on. “But I like doing it so much I might have to buy a third one to do it again!” she says.

GOLDEN RULES When visiting a potential horse to purchase, first impressions go a long way, especially when it comes to assessing any possible health issues. Look out for the following: l The horse should look bright eyed and perky, with a shiny coat l He should look alert and interested, and greet you as a friend

Turn to page 67

for more a dvice on having horse vett a ed

l The inside of his gums and nostrils should be pink without discoloured mucus or discharge l He should stand up square without pointing or resting a front leg l His droppings should look ‘normal’ in colour and consistency l At rest, he should breathe easily without coughing l He should appear well muscled and the right weight for his type l Ask if he needs any special shoeing and check his hooves well trimmed l All four legs should feel cool, with no swellings l Check he has had regular check-ups with the dentist, physio, chiropractor and saddle fitter

horse has at the time of the vetting. The blood sample is sent for storage and can be analysed for a wide selection of drugs for up to six months after the vetting.

Should I ask for additional diagnostic techniques?

Taking X-rays and performing an endoscopy to assess the upper airway are sometimes recommended. The decision to perform these is usually made by the vet and the purchaser together and is based on a cost/ benefit analysis of the techniques. Many other factors are also taken into account. These include the age of the horse, previous competition history, www.horsedeals.co.uk

previous veterinary history (if available) and intended use. At times, changes will be found on the clinical examination of the horse that warrant further investigation. For horses that will be competing at the top level, a full set of X-rays and an endoscopy are often performed to ensure that the horse will withstand the pressures of high intensity exercise.

Should I attend the vetting?

It is better if the purchaser is able to attend the vetting if possible. It allows for a face-to-face conversation with the vet about any abnormal findings and it gives you another chance to see the horse in action. HD DECEMBER 2012 horse deals 31

As I mentioned earlier this year, our place which we’ve been renting for the past three years has been on the market and has now sold. Although we’re a bit sad to leave the area as we’ve made so many good friends, we’re really lucky that an investor has bought a fantastic 150 acre equestrian property near Cheltenham, which we’ll be moving into within the next couple of months. Not only will Jay and I move into a lovely brick farmhouse on the estate, but the horses are going to be in five-star luxury as our new is in sight, we’re getting really excited and place is in the process of being refurbished starting to plan a few outings again – moving and the facilities are out of this world.

l “Ask your trainer or teacher to help you find the right competition horse to suit your abilities,” says Spencer l “Don’t be tempted by a horse simply because it has famous bloodlines l “Be realistic about your level of riding and the type of horse you can cope with. Flashy paces aren’t easy to sit on – make sure you really can cope with an extravagant moving horse before you buy one l “If buying a youngster, make sure you have the necessary level of experience. If not, base yourself with a trainer who can help develop you both as a combination. If you’re not an experienced jockey, it’s better to opt to buy an older, experienced horse l “If buying from a professional yard, be aware that a young horse may lack confidence when ridden by a less experienced amateur l “If buying a youngster from abroad, be aware that they may be more accustomed to have been ridden in an indoor school previously and few young horses are “perfect” when ridden in winter weather with external distractions of the great outdoors!”

days before the move, it’s looking less likely now, so instead we’re making rough plans for 2013. Neville (Super Nova) is going really well and has nailed his one-time changes, but we’ll probably keep him at small tour for another six months before bringing him out at grand prix level. Doogie is also likely to stay at small tour next year, but we’re staying open minded and Zamboucca is getting ready for his small tour level debut so it’s all systems go! See you next time and I’ll update you on our progress! HD DECEMBER 2012 horse deals 33

Lynn Russell has carved a niche for herself finding, producing and selling top class show horses – we go behind the scenes to find out more

R

GOLDEN RULE l “As a dealer I’ll take the risk of buying a horse who may not make the grade, but I won’t just shove them back in the sales if they can’t do the job,” says Lynn. “If I’ve bought them, I’ll take the responsibility of making sure they end up in the right homes – and that’s important to consider if you’re buying and selling for a living.”

Lynn on Stealth Project, qualifying at Aintree for the HOYS Retraining of Racehorses final

hen Lynn Russell entered the ring for the cob classes at this year’s Horse of the Year Show, she saw plenty of familiar faces – equine as well as human. This year, 10 of the cobs who qualified came from her Surrey yard; last year, she was responsible for 11. For the past 30 years, Lynn has been finding, producing and selling top class show horses. Many associate her mainly with cobs, but she’s also successful with hacks, hunters and riding horses and has recently established another specialist area, buying, re-schooling and producing racehorses out of training. She’s also deliberately changed her approach to selling. “At one time, I would buy cobs in Ireland, do the initial work and then sell them,” she says. “Now, I tend to find a horse I’m happy to be seen on in the ring, produce it and sell it to the right person at an appropriate stage of its career. “Although I’ll look for a novice or particular type of horse if someone asks me, I’m concentrating more on horses that are ready to go out and qualify for HOYS and the Royal International Horse Show – or already have done – or have absolutely top class potential. “The trade – what I call ‘Saturday horses’, horses that will do well at big local shows but won’t walk off with a HOYS ticket – isn’t the same as it was, but a top class horse will always find a buyer. And if I don’t sell them at one stage, I’m happy to carry on producing

and competing them and then sell them at another, as they grow into money! “I have the fun of making and riding them and their success is good for my sponsors, such as Baileys Horse Feeds.” While buying a made horse obviously costs

I’m concentratIng on horses that are ready to go out and qualIfy for hoys and the royal InternatIonal horse show Lynn Russell www.horsedeals.co.uk

more than buying a prospect, you’re paying for expertise and minimising the risk the horse won’t turn out to be what you’d hoped for. Lynn still buys most of her youngsters, with the exception of ex-racers, from Ireland. “When they get here, they’re usually good in traffic – but they have no steering, are ignorant about having their feet handled and have no idea about going in any sort of outline,” she says. “They’re often poor and have no muscle, so you’re starting from scratch.” It takes months of patient work to get a horse to the stage where he’s ready to start showing, but Lynn loves it. She gets even more of a buzz from finding horses at bloodstock sales, to re-school and produce for the Retraining of Racehorses classes. Lynn’s customers are mainly keen amateur riders, who are serious about showing, and fellow professionals who will often go to her if they are looking for horses for clients. “It means I don’t get lots of time-wasters,” she explains. “I don’t get people who ring up and complain because a horse has pulled off a shoe, or because it’s sneezed – anyone who sells horses will know what I mean. Instead, I get people who want to do well and want to learn; a lot of them come on my clinics, either the general showing ones or the ones specifically for Retraining of Racehorses. “I’ve tried to find a niche, which in the current financial market is something I think we all have to do.” HD l Find out more at www.topcobs.com DECEMBER 2012 horse deals 41

Headley Britannia – who retired from top class competition this year at the age of 19 – will be hunter trialling this winter with rider Lucinda Fredericks

Buying an older horse Our guide to finding the right golden oldie, whatever your discipline, riding aims and budget

L

ots of riders, both famous and not-so well-known, continue to have fun and success with horses who are in their teens or older. But would you take the risk of buying a horse or pony in this age group? Some do – and prove that taking a 44 DECEMBER 2012 Horse Deals

chance on a teenager or golden oldie can also be a golden opportunity. As with any purchase, there are risks. “Older horses who have been in work all their lives will, by definition, probably have been subject to more wear than a younger animal,” says vet

Mark Davies. “They’re also more likely to suffer from stiffness problems, perhaps relating to arthritis. But if you go into a purchase with realistic expectations and look after and manage an older horse correctly, it can work well.” Tel: 01733 468000

Back in the swing If you’ve had a break from riding and want to get back into the swing of it, an older horse can be ideal, as Hilda Luscombe found. “I started riding when I was 11 and eventually had my own pony at 14,” says Heather. “I never had much in the way of lessons, as at the riding school I went to, you had a couple of lessons in the school and then just hacked round the lanes – so most of what I know is self-taught.

It’s worth bearing in mind that your older horse could be a long time retired

“I was never a confident rider, but my pony was pretty safe. I had him until I was 21 and when I sold him, I gave up riding.” Three years ago, Hilda bought a former racing mare to breed from and is slowly building up the numbers. Although she gets a lot of satisfaction from this, she admits she also started thinking about how she would enjoy riding again. “So at the age of 44 I tried Bing, a 16-year-old

TB cross Connemara who had been jumping but now needs a quieter life,” she said. “A friend of mine found him and when I tried him, it was my first time back on a horse since selling my pony. I felt completely at ease the minute I was on him and we went for a hack for over an hour. “I think it took me three weeks to recover, but I fell for him and it’s definitely the best thing I have ever done!”

Archie, friendly 14.2hh Welsh x cob. He has got 3 gentle paces and is jumping small fences with ease. He has been with us since he was 6 months.

This is a family horse with attitude.

I am a 13.1hh approx skewbald pony, great temperament, very unusual markings that make me ideal for the ridden show classes, or just a great hack & friend. I will go first or last and will carry adult or child. I am good to catch, shoe, box & traffic, no vices & will live in or out. I do need a good home please. No time wasters please.

R TOP TIP

ChaRlottE DolBy

s I write this, we’re coming to the end of the eventing season and it’s time for making plans – big ones. Clayton’s move to an American base means I’m facing new challenges and responsibilities and looking for new horses to keep Team Fredericks at the top in the UK. I’m thrilled that I’m now officially part owner of Flying Finish, aka Christi, and keep the ride. The other owners, Richard Ames and Angus Murray, are being very supportive and we’re all looking forward to a great season next year. Christi had an end-of-season run in an advanced section at Downham Market. I didn’t go for a fast time but could not have been happier with my double clear. In fact, we left with four happy horses and four double clears. I also had a lovely ride from Shelter Cove (Cassie), who belongs to our great friend Nicole Pearson. Cassie was bred to show jump and is ultra careful as well as being very honest. Nicole bought her as an Asian Games prospect and, at the moment, we share the ride. Next year, I’ll have Prada, my cross-country Ferrari, back in competition. She isn’t the easiest, but when she’s on my side her enormous talent makes all the high maintenance worthwhile. I’m also taking over the ride on MR Sydney Rocks, who is owned by Tim and Alice Page – he’s a lovely horse with lots of talent and I’m very excited at the prospect of competing him. Last but not least, I’m riding Brookleigh, who is staying here for me to produce and sell. Although I have some great horsepower, I need to strengthen my team at the top level. One box I need to tick in my planning is to find a couple of nice horses who are ready to compete at the upper levels, preferably with nice owners. I’m very lucky to have the two Brit babies, Millie and Marley, and hopefully both will follow in their parents’ hoofprints, but it all takes time. Millie (Little Britannia) and Marley

(Britannia’s Mail) have matured beautifully this year and finished ninth and 12th respectively on their dressage scores in the Lycetts Breeding Championships four-year-old section at Osberton. They are such exciting prospects and my little Brit has done us all proud. Marley, who jumped so well at the Dubarry Young Event Horse final at Burghley, has also passed his grading and has already been booked for two four-star mares – I’ll have frozen semen available from him next year. It was encouraging how many people enthused about him and, hopefully, he’s on the way to becoming a successful performance sire. I was really proud of Emily Young-Jamieson, my senior groom, who was third in the Lycetts five-year-old section on her own Gortmore Tommy T, and also took the award for the highest placed Irish-bred horse. Emz is one of the cornerstones of my team and has worked hard with Ted, as he’s known at Rosegarth. With Clayton in America, running Rosegarth as a business is down to me. I’m looking to rent six to 10 boxes here, complete with full access to our superb

l “Most people have a horse vetted before they buy, which I’d recommend. But listen to what the vet tells you and decide, with expert advice, if there are things you are prepared to take a chance on,” says Lucinda. “Flying Finish, my 2012 Olympic horse, failed the vet when he was up for sale at one time because he has a heart murmur. In financial terms, he’ll never be worth the same as he would without it, but he isn’t a danger to me or to himself – and I never wanted him to be sold, so I’m very happy he didn’t go!”

facilities and fully equipped living accommodation for up to two staff members. Ideally, it would suit a young rider, perhaps one from outside the UK who would like to train with me – but whoever it is has to be tidy and have a sense of fun! I’m also looking forward to all my training commitments through the end of this year and beginning of 2013. I love teaching and especially love working with talented riders who want to progress, so if you want to find out more, contact me through our website, www.teamfredericks.com The other side of my life is, of course, as a mum. Ellie is now nine years old and we had the Wizard of Oz-themed birthday party to prove it. She has a new pony, Merrie Mink and we’ll be doing a lot of Pony Club things next year. As you can guess, 2013 is going to be full of challenges but also, I hope, opportunities. Have a great Christmas, and I look forward to catching up with you next year. HD

Breeding with

shirley light Top breeder Shirley Light gives us the latest news and views from Brendon Stud

W

ell, here we are at the end of another year. We’ve had a rollercoaster time at Brendon Stud and in the past few months we’ve had more than our fair share of downs – though it hasn’t been all bad. Recently, it’s been absolutely manic. Since my father, Cyril’s funeral in September, we’ve won the six-year-old championship at the Horse of the Year Show on our superstar homebred, Sussex Caretino (Klarins); been stallion shopping in Europe; herded in about 25 two and three-year-olds, then handled and backed them. Oh, and I’ve been puppy shopping and preparing for our auction, too! Klarins and Lou are the original dynamic duo. The jump-off for the six-year-old championships wasn’t just fast, it was super fast. Lou had nine to jump after her, so the pressure was on, though I think Klarins was out to prove that she could give Frankel a run for his money. Sometimes, you get big talent in small packages. Klarins is all of 16hh and actually wears pony-sized boots. She’s by our stallion Caretino Glory out of a mare called Kourtney, whose posh name is Special To Me, as she was orphaned at birth. And just to prove that it runs in the family, Kourtney is full sister to Hamilton Tropics, who was fourth in the 2007 Hickstead Derby. I know I’m biased, but Lou and Klarins were unlucky to have a fence down in the Foxhunter final. Years ago, HOYS used to have a warm-up class for the Newcomers and Foxhunter finals, and it’s a shame we’ve lost

R TOP TIP

l “If you’re looking for a nice horse at a reasonable price, don’t assume that well-known breeders and producers won’t have anything suitable,” says Shirley. “You can’t breed international superstars all the time – though we have our fair share - and I’m always happy to hear from nice people looking for a nice horse at around £5,000.”

In the rest of europe, buyIng and sellIng top class horses at auctIon Is the norm and I don’t see why the same can’t apply here Shirley Light that. But it made Lou all the more determined for the six-year-old championships, which she won two years ago with Paris (Don VHP Z) – we all wanted that title back. Talking of Frankel, I booked a rare Saturday off to see him win his last race. What an experience that was, and how can you put a price on him as a breeding stallion? I think it’s absolute madness that artificial insemination (AI) isn’t allowed in the TB world, because they could still limit the numbers to keep the gene pool non-polluted. Not surprisingly, we were rooting for Scott Brash and Bon Ami to take the HOYS leading showjumper title; to lose by just half a second was cruel, but that’s showjumping. We produced both horse and rider: we bought Bon Ami as a two-year-old and sold him three years later. His stable name is Onion, as in Spring Onion, because as a small two-year-old he could spring over the biggest fences, including a monster hedge out of the stallions’ field! Hopefully, I’ve now got another from the same mould. I’m really excited by my new two-year-old colt, Scotch. He’s by Clintissimo out of a Coriano Z mare and boy, can he jump. I’m having to get Bob the Builder in to alter the already very high fence to our ‘sand pit,’ because Scotch popped straight out over it.

As I write this, I’m busy doing videos of the horses in our special auction at the end of November. We’ve got to cut down on numbers, so doing it this way is a bit of an experiment. In the rest of Europe, buying and selling top class horses at auction is the norm and I don’t see why the same can’t apply here. After all, it’s the accepted way in the racing world and we have some fantastic horses to offer, from foals to proven show jumpers as well as horses that could event or hunt. Will it work? I’ll let you know next time. We’ve certainly done all we can, including taking some of the horses hunting and cross-country schooling. Except for foals and broodmares, all horses went through a two-stage vetting and were open to farther vetting and X-rays on the day. Finally, if anyone hears me yelling ‘Bogoff!’ or ‘Jesus!’ don’t be too surprised. I won’t have gone doolally, I’ll just be calling my new mini Schnauzer puppies, alias the Terrible Two. I was only meant to buy one, but they are so cute, I couldn’t decide, so I thought I’d just get two. Calling their names is hilarious – I got some mighty strange looks in the vet’s when they were called in to get their vaccinations. I hope you all have a great Christmas and will catch up with you next year. As always, be lucky! HD DECEMBER 2012 horse deals 63

Vetting explained essential BUYinG aDViCe

Having a horse vetted before you buy him is an essential safeguard. Here, we explain the different stages Words: Jane Carley

R BUYING ADVICE

The examination

The standard examination is conducted in five stages, although the first two stages may also be performed as a stand-alone examination – or a ‘two-stage vetting’. There are limitations to the examination, not least that it provides a picture on one day only, and can’t reveal if the horse has been lame or will be in the future. It also doesn’t include a pregnancy test, and vets won’t provide a height measurement, as this must be done on a proper pad and can have a significant influence on the horse’s value. Vices are not necessarily detectable during the examination. However, if vices, or evidence of vices – such as windsucking – are observed during the examination they are reported to the purchaser, recorded on the certificate and taken into account in the concluding opinion.

The stages Stage 1: Preliminary examination

This is a thorough external examination of the animal at rest using visual observation, palpation and manipulation to detect clinically apparent signs of injury, disease or physical abnormality. It includes an

Be prepared If you’re selling a horse, in order to give the best chance of a successful vetting you should provide: l A clean, mud-free horse. l Somewhere flat to trot the horse up in a straight line. l For a five-stage vetting, somewhere to see the horse ridden – a field may be adequate, but a school is ideal. l A handler and/or rider for the horse. l A dark stable to allow examination of the eyes. l Ideally the horse should be kept in for 24 hours before the examination so that any stiffness/lameness that could work off with exercise is apparent. l For clear guidelines on the pre-purchase veterinary examination, which are summarised above, visit www.beva.org.uk/ppeinfo

www.horsedeals.co.uk

examination of the incisor teeth, a thorough examination of the horse’s eyes in a darkened area and listening to the horse’s heart and lungs at rest.

Stage 2: Walk and trot in-hand

The animal is walked and then trotted in hand to detect abnormalities of gait and action. Ideally this is carried out on firm, level ground. The horse is turned sharply each way and is backed for a few paces. Flexion tests of all four limbs and trotting in a circle on a firm surface may be carried out if the examining veterinary surgeon considers it safe and appropriate to do so.

Stage 3: Exercise phase

The horse is usually ridden and given sufficient exercise to allow assessment when it has an increased breathing effort and an increased heart rate. Its gait is also assessed at walk, trot, canter and, if appropriate, gallop.

Stage 4: Period of rest and re-examination

The horse is allowed to stand quietly for a

period. During this time the respiratory and cardiovascular systems may be monitored as they return to their resting levels.

Stage 5: Second trot-up

The horse is trotted in-hand again to look for any signs of strains or injuries made evident by the exercise and rest stages.

The results

The certificate reports the findings of the examination, including all significant signs of disease, injury or physical abnormality. It also includes the examining vet’s opinion as to whether or not, on the balance of probabilities, those findings prejudice the horse’s suitability for its intended use. If the vet considers that the horse’s clinical history represents a greater than normal risk of it developing future problems (ie recurrence or delayed consequences of a prior condition), this is indicated on the certificate along with an explanatory note. Despite such observations, the horse may nevertheless be suitable for purchase based on a risk/ benefit analysis. HD

A five-stage vetting is recommended before you buy

ESSENTIAL BUYING GUIDE

Kitted out for school From dressage letters to jumps and other accessories, here’s how to get more out of your arena with the latest equipment

H

aving your own arena is a great boost to training and enjoying your horse to the full. You can ride in most weather conditions on a surface that gives your horse a consistent, safe footing. And when training youngsters, the confined area makes for a safer, more relaxed experience and helps them to learn balance and suppleness. However, you can get even more out of your arena by adding some equipment, from dressage letters to jumps and other accessories. If you hire out your arena or have liveries, providing jumps or letters can also increase its value and enhance your clients’ experience. Of course, a competent DIY-er can build some items at home, but there is a huge range of professionally made equipment, which is safer and easier to handle. It also looks more impressive and offers a longer lifespan.

Top riders Pippa and William Funnell wouldn’t be without their arena mirrors

Mirror, mirror on the wall... Many competition riders are investing in arena mirrors to help fine tune their position in the saddle. Andrea Miles of Mirrors for Training explains: “As a rider, the ability to hold an upright and balanced posture at all times is critical for control and influence of the horse. It sums up the difference between being a rider and simply someone who is along for the ride! “If you think that mirrors for training are just for professional riders, reconsider. Whatever your

WWW.HORSEDEALS.CO.UK

discipline, if you are schooling horses at any level you can benefit hugely from them and make the most of training sessions.” Strategically placed mirrors in the arena help to monitor the horse’s movements and make training sessions more effective, even when your instructor isn’t there. These mirrors mean the rider can see what the judge sees so can make corrections. The use of mirrors also helps to practise good habits such as proper angles in half-passes and shoulder-ins. Arena mirrors from Mirrors for Training

are backed and framed galvanised steel, making them strong and built to last, unlike wooden backed alternatives that can warp and distort your reflection, Andrea points out. Mirrors for Training arena mirrors are 8ft x 4ft, and are made from 6mm mirror which is safety backed to British Standards. It incorporates a special safety film and 15mm cushioner for added impact protection. There are vertical or horizontal mounting options and their suitable for indoor and outdoor arenas.

Mounting blocks from Classic Showjumps come in a wide range of sizes and colours

Mount up safely A mounting block is one of the most convenient items you can have in your arena, and, as well as making it easier and safer for a short rider to get on a tall horse, research has shown that using one reduces the strain on the horse’s backs. Trials conducted by the Society of Master Saddlers in 2010 showed that mounting from the ground exerted more than double the peak pressure on the horse’s back of that seen when the horse was jumping a 1.40m show jump. Using a mounting block minimised the amount of time this force was exerted, with tall mounting blocks coming out best of all in the trials. Giles Fielding, of Classic Showjumps, which manufactures a huge range of blocks, says it is a misconception that mounting blocks are only needed by beginners or the less agile. “Mounting blocks are used by everyone from novice to international riders including our sponsored rider, Caroline Powell,” he comments. Classic Showjumps offers a total of seven sizes up to 82cm high, which are available in two distinct styles – premium and standard. “Our premium blocks are seriously heavy

duty, rock solid mounting blocks that will have British and European safety accreditation and can take a huge 260kg in weight. The three tread version is our best-selling size as it is extremely solid, weighing 15kg, and is available for around £80,” he explains. “If you are looking for a lighter block to be able to throw in your car or trailer easily to take to shows, then the standard range might be better. “These weigh between 4.5kg and 8.5kg so

are much lighter, but they are also extremely strong, will never crack and are very easy to clean.” Blocks can prove invaluable at home or away – providing an easily portable step for plaiting or trimming, loading the lorry etc as well as a handy seat! Most riders have a preferred colour scheme, and Classic Showjumps offers every size in its full range of 12 colours, so you can co-ordinate the blocks with your jumps, show livery or premises.

Insuring your ESSENTIAL BUYING ADVICE

Ensuring your new horse is properly insured from the off is vital – here’s how to choose the right policy

W

ith all the expense involved in buying a horse and investing in new gear, rugs and tack, it can be easy to overlook insurance or simply postpone buying a policy in the hope nothing untoward happens. But as soon as you buy your horse you’re responsible for his welfare – and if he decides to injure himself on the way home in the lorry, or as he races round his new field, you may be left wishing you’d got some insurance in place. Today’s policies cover a multitude of possible ‘what ifs’, from ‘what if my tack’s stolen?’ to ‘what if my horse breaks out of his field and gets on to the road?’ All offer peace of mind, and it’s important to do your homework to ensure you tailor-make your policy to suit your horse, his workload and his age.

R BUYERS’ ADVICE

Choose your level of cover l Third party liability

At the very basic level, some protection against a third party liability claim should your horse escape from his field and cause an accident is essential. Join the British Horse Society as a Gold member and you’ll get public liability insurance up to £10 million per year, and personal accident insurance up to £10,000 – see www.bhs.org.uk for full terms and conditions.

l Vet’s fees cover

Vet’s fees are often the biggest worry for horse owners, with injuries and health conditions soon escalating in cost, especially if repeated vet visits or expensive diagnostic tests are required. Read the policy’s small print carefully to check how much you can claim per incident, what diagnostic tests are included in the cover and whether it will pay for complementary therapies. Vet’s fees can escalate and many owners choose to insure against this DECEMBER 2012 HORSE DEALS

ESSENTIAL BUYING ADVICE

R

GOLDEN RULES l Do your homework when choosing an insurer. See if the insurance company an equine specialist with a team of horsey people who can offer advice and help in the event of a claim. l When choosing a policy, remember to compare like with like and bear in mind that it’s not just about cost. It’s important to find an insurer who can tailor a policy to suit your individual circumstances and offer support in the event of a crisis or theft. l When it comes to insurance there are two schools of thought. Should you go for very basic cover and hope for the best, or invest in comprehensive cover that guarantees you’ll be able to cope in an emergency? At the end of the day, the decision can only be yours, so weigh up the pros and cons.

Your insurers need to be aware of the level you compete at

l If you compete…

Tailoring your insurance cover to suit the level you compete at, and letting your insurers know if you happen to switch disciplines or go up a level, etc is important as policies will shoot up in price when you introduce potentially more risky sports, such as hunting or team chasing.

l Veteran policies

While it used to be tricky to get insurance for horses over the age of 15, companies are now more flexible. Veteran ages vary from company to company, but will usually continue for longer with renewals rather than new business. For example, Shearwater will offer full mortality and vet fees cover up to the age of 20, but only if the horse was insured with them before the age of 17. Petplan Equine, meanwhile, will insure horses against illness up to the age of 25, provided he was insured with them before he turned 20. Obviously, cover will be limited for older horses and may only cover accident and injury, so again check the small print carefully. The age at which your horse is classed as a veteran will vary from company to company WWW.HORSEDEALS.CO.UK

l Ensure your tack is fully covered. Read the small print carefully to ensure there are no stipulations with regards to how the tack is stored, and make sure the company is fully aware of where it’s kept. l It’s important to tell your insurance company straight away if there are any changes to your circumstances – and take note of their claims procedure so you don’t fall foul of the rules when the time comes to make a claim. l Check whether your policy covers you for loss of use should your horse no longer be able to compete (important if the horse is a valuable sports horse). l Some insurers will pay vets directly for treatment, so check whether this is the case with your policy. l Double check the finer points of your policy – namely what’s the excess, what exclusions are listed, and how much the premiums are likely to increase should you make a claim

private seller. This does not mean that the precautions stated above should not be taken. You do not always know whether or not the dealer would have the means to pay out were you to bring a claim against him/her and it always best to avoid litigation when possible.

When things go wrong

If you have taken the above steps yet you still find yourself in the unfortunate position of having to pursue a claim, you will be pleased to hear that the majority of claims settle out of court. Whether you are pursuing a dealer under the Sales of Goods Act or a claim for misrepresentation if your losses are in excess of £5,000 you would be able to instruct a solicitor on a no-win no-fee basis providing the solicitor deems you to have above a 50% prospect of success. If the claim proves successful you should be entitled to keep 100% of your compensation and the solicitor should recover his/her costs from your opponent. If you were unsuccessful the solicitor should write off his/her costs and you should pay nothing. If you paid less than £5,000 for the horse the solicitor would not be entitled to recover his/

www.horsedeals.co.uk

her costs from the other side which means that you may wish to pursue the matter yourself through the small claims court rather than paying a solicitor to act on a private hourly rate. Alternatively if you have home contents insurance or other insurance policies you may well benefit from free legal expense cover, which means that providing the panel firm of solicitors informs the insurer that you have above 50% prospects of success they should act for you for free even if your loss is not above £5,000.

Passport control

Having bought the horse, it is vital you notify the Horse Passport Agency to avoid a fine. It is also advisable to ensure that you have adequate public liability insurance in place. While this is not a legal requisite, failure to do so may result in you becoming personally liable for a claim were your horse to cause a serious accident. While some people are hesitant to take out insurance because they feel that insurance companies may look for a way of avoiding payment, providing you have not misrepresented

anything to them and under the terms of the contract you have a valid claim there are ways of enforcing compensation for breach of contract. As a horse owner you will of course have responsibilities under the Animal Welfare Act 2006. Failure to adhere to the welfare requirements stipulated within the Act can result in a maximum fine of £20,000 or sentence of up to six months in prison. HD

by Jim Masterson (J A Allen £21.99) The Masterson Method, a bodywork system developed by American bodywork specialist Jim Masterson, is rapidly gaining followers here.

Ideal for novice owners but also useful for the more experienced owner, too.

Dressage the Light Way

by Perry Wood (J A Allen, £22.50) We all get into a rut with our riding, but this book offers a way out and will help create a partnership with a new horse or improve an existing one. Refreshingly, Perry recognises that even when we work within a training framework, horses are individuals and offers different strategies for achieving schooling goals.

Towing Horse Trailers

by John Henderson (J A Allen £5.99) This updated photo guide is essential reading for anyone looking to buy and tow a trailer and will also help many experienced trailer owners.

The approach is a perfect mix of knowledge, empathy, practicality and proven methods and includes transitioning, management and feeding, groundwork and ridden work. There is also plenty of help and inspiration!

Second Chance

by Mark Todd with Kate Green (Orion Books, £20) The equestrian world rejoiced when Mark Todd made his eventing comeback and proved he could still work his magic. This is his updated autobiography and although it inevitably covers some of the same ground as the first volume, So Far So Good, it’s a fresh, entertaining read that takes us up to the run-up to London 2012.

Horse Massage for Horse Owners by Sue Palmer (J A Allen, £16.99) Whether you’ve just bought a horse or want to benefit the one you already own, this is a must. Chartered veterinary physiotherapist, qualified instructor and Intelligent Horsemanship recommended associate Sue Palmer gives a concise, easy-to-follow guide which is beautifully illustrated throughout.

Buying a house ESSENTIAL BUYING ADVICE

Expert advice to help you avoid the pitfalls when buying an equestrian property Words: Suzanne Jones

T

he time-honoured mantra ‘location, location, location’ applies to land as much as a house, and demand has seen land buck the trend of the general economic downturn in recent years. As a result, when it comes to buying a house with land, funds are the first consideration. “Check the property can be purchased purely with a residential mortgage, or whether it’s part deemed as commercial,” says Graham Hain of Rural and Equestrian. Katherine Watters of Garrington Property Finders recommends buyers undertake thorough research on the location. “Ensure there are bridleways nearby – don’t move in to find there’s a two-mile, main-road hack before you reach a bridleway,” she says. Practicality is another aspect. “Can you get your horsebox/trailer in the drive and turn around?” Katherine continues. “And is there secondary access for delivery vehicles and muck removal?” “Your dream property may seem idyllic, but it has to be practical,” adds Graham. “Is the property accessible using roads and lanes – and check flight paths and MOD training areas for potential ‘spook’ hazards.”

Survey the risks

Surveys carried out by a qualified Royal Institute for Chartered Surveyors (RICS) land surveyor can highlight boundaries, services, public or other rights of way and flood risks, etc. Title deeds can be often outdated and boundaries have a habit of changing over the years. A clear, unequivocal land survey would define this, and negate potentially costly neighbourhood disputes further down the line. “Carefully check boundaries on the Title

Fencing Fencing is another factor. “Check that fencing and boundaries offer privacy and security,” recommends Graham. “Also, are neighbouring properties horse-friendly, or do they have barbed-wire fencing, excitable, barking dogs and quad-bike riders?” “In an ideal world, we’d all love post and rail,” adds Katherine, “but assess whether new fencing is needed – in some cases it requires planning permission.”

DECEMBER 2012 HORSE DEALS

documents, which can be purchased from the Land Registry” advises Katherine. “Many a transaction has been held up by boundary issues and unregistered parcels of land which need re-registering with the Land Registry. “This process can take up to six weeks and could be the downfall in a transaction if you’re in a chain, but many solicitors will undertake a site visit as part of the conveyancing process.”

Legal advice

Using an experienced solicitor is recommended. “Instruct the right solicitor who is familiar with boundaries, planning, outbuildings, lakes, manège, etc,” says Graham. Land classification is another consideration. “Horses can graze as livestock on ‘agricultural-classed’ land provided this is their primary forage source, but in some cases the land may need a change of use to ‘equestrian’ depending on facilities already in place or those you wish to create,” says Katherine. “Your local planning office will give guidance.”

Planning permission

If the property doesn’t have stables and outbuildings, etc, planning research is a must before buying. It’s vital to approach the local authority to establish if it will ultimately grant permission for your plans. Restrictive covenants can also preclude you from building, and this is an area your solicitor should check. If your prospective property already has planning permission, check it hasn’t, or is about to, expire. “Often, prospective equestrian property

R BUYING ADVICE buyers will put horse accommodation requirements well above their own,” says Katherine. “If there aren’t existing stables on site, consider utilising any outbuildings. Barns are a cost-effective solution for American barn-style internal stables.” Katherine advises to keep planning in your thoughts. “Any stabling other than mobile field shelters need planning permission, so check your local authority planning website and read their Local Policy with regards to planning, as Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty [AONB], Sites of Special Scientific Interest [SSSI] and conservation areas may have restrictions, and this particularly applies to sand-schools and floodlights.”

Land quality

Land with a previous use is known as brownfield, and in some cases the previous use could have caused contamination through use of agricultural chemicals, industrial pollution or landfill. If there is any question regarding soil quality, a sample should be collected and tested. “Walk the land,” recommends Graham. “Is there any buried stone, scrap, etc, does the land drain or flood, and is there shelter from Tel: 01733 468000

ESSENTIAL BUYING ADVICE

R

GOLDEN RULES l Check your prospective property’s accessibility for large horseboxes/ trailers on roads, lanes and the main driveway. l Can the property be purchased purely with a residential mortgage, or is part deemed commercial. Research and check boundaries on Title documents. l Check the local authority’s stance on planning permission for stables, manège, etc. l Check on land classification – change of use may be required for equestrian pursuits. l Further information on both land and property can be found on the Land Registry website, and for a small fee you can search the detailed history and ownership of property, including information on land, planning permission and rights of way.

wind and sun? “Satisfy yourself there is enough land for your needs. Acreage stated is not always correct and will be subject to a measured survey [stms] and it may be in your interest to have the land independently measured. The rule of one acre per horse is fine in summer months, but in my opinion, larger horses need two in the winter months.” Sloping land may require more labour and material to put down solid foundations. Any additional work must be budgeted for

– but you could always use it as a negotiating point when buying. “Ascertain the soil type when assessing the land,” advises Katherine. “Sandy/chalky soils are free-draining and fare better in winter than clay, which can become deeply muddy and, in some cases, unusable. “Careful management of any soil type is important, but clay needs the most with regular rolling and maintenance.” The lie of the land should also be considered. “Low land may be subject to flooding,

especially if near a source of water,” says Katherine. “Consider water supply, too – if there aren’t on-site water troughs, consider the possibility of laying a pipe. This will also need permission but it’s easier than lugging water buckets daily across fields!” Katherine gives a last word of advice. “It may seem an awful lot of red tape acquiring equestrian property, but always remember your end goal – nothing will beat looking out of the window and seeing your horses happily grazing.” HD

Stabling costs Stable costs vary depending on the style, materials, specification and size of yard you’re planning to build. Many larger stabling companies offer advice and assistance on designing your stables, as well as elevation drawings to be submitted with your planning application. As an example, three mid-range 12ft x 12ft stables, a 6ft x 12ft tack-room and a 14ft x 12ft hay-store will set you back around £8,000, including delivery and assembly. Buying land with an existing property provides an easier solution as it benefits from ‘past precedent’ and it’s usually easier to achieve full planning permission if either redeveloping or demolishing and replacing it as per the original style or footprint. Establish a good relationship with your local authority’s planning office and build a rapport. Set up early site meetings to discuss intentions on an informal basis. It doesn’t incur costs and is a good way to gain support.

Buying a horsebox Expert advice to help you buy a lorry with confidence, whatever your size needs or budget

W

hen buying a horsebox it’s important to be clear in your mind from the outset what you need with regards to size and on board gadgets. You might be blown away by a state of the art lorry, complete with living accommodation and en suite shower, but if you’re only going to be travelling up the road to local competitions all this luxury will be an unnecessary expense. Instead, be realistic and ask yourself the following questions: l How many horses will I be transporting at any one time? l How much can I really afford? l What am I legally allowed to drive? l Am I prepared for the substantial running costs – including an annual plating (the lorry’s equivalent of an MOT) and servicing, etc? l Have I got somewhere safe to keep it? Once you’ve sussed your budget and needs, you can start flicking through Horse Deals or head online (see www.horsedeals.co.uk) to browse the lorries for sale ads. Whether you buy privately or from a dealer is another point to consider. Buying privately may bag you a good deal, but buying from a dealer offers you some protection, as well as a warranty. “When buying a lorry from a dealer you have implied and express rights,” say the legal experts at solictors SGH Martineau. “Express rights refer to those that you expressly agree with the dealer, for example the price, whether it will be sold with a full tank of fuel and how long any warranty will last, etc. If any of these express rights are broken then you’ll have legal rights against the dealer. In addition, the law implies other rights into your contract of sale/purchase.” In summary, the horsebox must be ‘as described’ by the dealer in his advertisement. So, for example, a nearly new lorry can’t be 10 years old, or a right-hand drive can’t be a left-hand drive horsebox. The lorry must also be of satisfactory quality and ‘fit for purpose’. In this regard, make sure you keep written evidence of any specific purpose you make known to the dealer. Finally, the lorry must match the description in any brochure, including the 106 DECEMBER 2012 Horse Deals

R BUYING ADVICE

dealer’s website – for example a red lorry can’t actually be blue!

Buying 7.5 tonners

If you’re buying a bigger lorry, the most important point to consider is whether or not you can legally drive it. Lorries weighing between 3.5 tonnes and 7.5 tonnes can only be driven by holders of a C1 category licence – and anyone who passed their driving test for a category B licence after 1 January 1997 will not receive automatic entitlement to drive category C1 vehicles, so will need to take an additional test. For more on driver licensing visit www.direct.gov.uk/en/Motoring/Driving foraliving/Drivinglorriesbusesandcoaches/ DG_4022548

Weight is another big issue. The 7.5 tonne horsebox used to be the staple form of transport for every equine activity from hunting to showing, with the ability to hold ‘everything but the kitchen sink’ for if you had to stay away at an event. But many of these lorries were significantly overweight when loaded with three horses, the family, water and diesel, leading to safety concerns. As a result, VOSA has clamped down on overweight lorries, and it is a common occurrence to be directed off the road and weighed. If you are overweight, the lorry can be impounded, which is at best inconvenient, and so a horsebox’s unladen weight has become a key selling point, with manufacturers using ever-lighter materials Tel: 01733 468000

GOLDEN RULES

A smaller 3.5 tonne lorry may better suit your needs – and budget

and innovative designs to stay within the law. When drawing up your horsebox wish list, be aware of unnecessary luxuries that may add weight. Air conditioning units, for example are very heavy, and how often are you likely to need air conditioning when away at shows in this country? Another

www.HorseDeals.co.uk

heavy item is an awning, which is not really essential for most purchasers.

Buying 3.5 tonners

If a smaller 3.5 tonne lorry will better suit your requirements, a plus point is that anyone with a category B licence (an ordinary private car licence) can drive a lorry with a gross vehicle weight of up to 3.5 tonnes, making these vehicles more flexible for the average horse owner. However, one serious concern for purchasers of horseboxes under 7.5 tonnes, which are subject to less regulation than HGVs, is their suitability to actually carry horses. So ask questions before you buy – for instance has the undercarriage and body been strengthened? HD

When you go to view a potential lorry, follow our guide to essential checks (or have a mechanic do it for you!): l Overall condition – look for signs of rust, wear and damp and check the ramp’s in good condition. l Wheels and tyres – check the wheel nuts and tyre tread depth, which should be at least 1mm or more, and have the tyre pressures checked regularly if you decide to buy it (a tyre centre will be able to do this for you if necessary). Check the spare, and look at the edges of all the tyres for signs of cracking or perishing. l Battery – does this look regularly maintained? To reduce battery problems, many drivers clean and protect the battery terminals with petroleum jelly. Check too that the lighting in the living and horse area runs from a separate battery to the main lorry battery. l suspension – check to see if the vehicle is sitting square or lopsided, and listen for any knocking sounds when the vehicle is in motion. l the parking brake, or handbrake – check it works, and while you’re in the cab check whether everything appears in good working order. l Brake systems – check for air and fluid leaks. l tachograph – if there is a tachograph installed, check whether your planned use of the vehicle makes it exempt. If your vehicle is fitted with a tachograph but you only use the instrument as a speedometer, you must ensure all the seals are intact, and that it has been calibrated and fitted with both the calibration and K factor plaques. l Fuel systems – check the fuel cap has a seal fitted and has no obvious fuel leaks. Check too that no black smoke is coming from the exhaust pipe, as well as the security and condition of the exhaust system. If you buy the lorry, the oil level should be regularly checked and topped up accordingly. l anti-freeze – to prevent cracked engine blocks, burst radiators and split hoses, the anti-freeze level in the cooling system should be topped up regularly. l Windscreen wash – has this been topped up? A mix of cleaning fluid, anti-freeze and water is best – and if you decide to buy the lorry you’ll need to make sure you’ve got plenty for the drive home. l speed limiter – if the vehicle has a speed limiter installed, check it has the appropriate calibration plaque and seals. l speedometer – make sure the speedometer illuminates. l steering mechanism – check for obvious oil leaks and any unusual knocking noises when driving. l Headlights and lamps – check that they work and are the right colour, and look for faded and broken lenses, or missing reflectors at the rear and side of the box. l You’re insured and legally able to drive the weight of vehicle before taking it for a test drive.

Insuring your trailer or horsebox essential BUYinG aDViCe

R

Whether you’re buying a horsebox or trailer it’s important to ensure it’s properly insured from the moment you drive it away…

BUYING ADVICE

H

orse boxes and trailers are desirable – but sadly this means they’re desirable to thieves, too. And whether you’re looking to protect your equestrian transport from theft or damage, the right policy is a must. Most companies offer a mix of policies, from fully comprehensive and third party, fire and theft cover, which caters for ‘social, domestic and pleasure’ use, to policies covering business use of the lorry or trailer. Of course, costs vary and will depend on the type, age and value of your transport, the type of use it will face during its day to day existence, where it will be stored and, in the case of a lorry, how many drivers will be named on the policy and their driving experience. As with all insurance, it pays to shop around for quotes and compare policies – many people opt to pay slightly more to insure with a company that has a good reputation and can offer the back up of a team of horse enthusiasts who understand the concerns horse owners’ face and the types of transport problems they’re often up against.

Legal concerns

You are required by law to insure your horsebox, however this is not the case with trailers – though it is recommended,

CheCk with your towing vehiCle’s insurers that the trailer’s Covered for third party Claims… 116 DECEMBER 2012 Horse Deals

GOLDEN RULES

especially as trailers can often be tempting to thieves and difficult to fully secure. Before towing a trailer, check with your towing vehicle’s insurers that the trailer’s covered for third party claims – though this won’t cover you for any damage to the trailer or loss through theft. Separate trailer policies are available, so check online to see what different companies offer. Companies offering both lorry and trailer insurance often offer breakdown cover too, so ask about this when you make enquiries. Before you get a quote, make sure you have your lorry or trailer’s details to hand, including the make, model and year; any serial or VIN numbers; details of how many horses the vehicle’s designed to carry and what you’ll be using it for. It’s a good idea to keep a copy of your trailer or lorry’s insurance documents either in your towing vehicle or the lorry’s cab in case of emergency. HD

l While it’s not a legal requirement to insure your trailer, it is highly advisable in the event of theft or damage – and security devices such as wheel clamps and hitch locks may reduce your premiums. l When getting a quote ensure you have all the necessary paperwork to hand – including any serial and VIN numbers. l Enquire about breakdown cover, as many insurers offer this, too.

‘My best buys’ TOP RIDERS’ BEST BUYS

Best horse: I can’t narrow it down to one! Sanctos has to be in there, but Sinette holds a special place in my life, too. And I have to mention Intertoy Z. Why? Sanctos has to be my number one. Sir Phil and Lady Pauline bought him specifically for me to aim at London 2012, and to get team gold in your own country is the best you can achieve in your life. Phil has owned horses for 40 years and had massive success with David Broome, but he would say this is definitely his best buy. Winning gold was amazing. Sinette is a chestnut mare I bought in Holland for very little money – just 2,100 euros. She was a great buy and qualified for the six-year-old and newcomers, and the Foxhunter at the Horse of the Year Show in the same year. I think she would have gone to the top, but unfortunately she got injured. I’ve Scott clinched team gold at London 2012 riding Hello Sanctos still got her and she’s produced a very nice foal by Eldorado. Intertoy Z was a fantastic buy.

The saddle is so comfortable to ride in and fits the horses well, too, and this is of paramount importance. I also feel I’m getting close to the horse with this saddle. My stirrups are really innovative, yet it is such a simple idea. The stirrup has a magnetic

Best competition clothing: Animo clothing. Why? I love anything Animo. From the minute I tried riding in Animo clothing, I knew I wouldn’t want anything else. I find I have so much more freedom of movement and it is good to feel so comfortable. From: Animo.

Best yard equipment: All the leather work from Walsh Saddlery – from headcollars and breaking-in tack to draw reins and boots. Why? The quality is amazing and it looks very smart. From: Walsh Saddlery, another USA based company.

Best transport: Oakley Supreme horsebox on a Scania chassis. Why? I’ve had this lorry for five years now. It isn’t fancy with pop-outs and just has a basic shower, cooker, etc, but it suits us and takes seven horses comfortably. The best design feature on the lorry is the mobile tack-locker that fits into the side, so we don’t have to lug it up and down the ramp. A simple idea but saves so much time and effort struggling with heavy tack-lockers. I also love a Scania to drive. They’re easy with plenty of power, and you don’t feel like you’ve done a day’s work already driving to a show. From: Oakley Coachbuilders in Hertfordshire.

R BUYERS’ GUIDE

Jane Carley looks at the pros and cons of 3.5-tonners verses larger trailers, and explores what’s on the market

C

hoosing the right horse transport can be tricky, especially with a limited budget, and the decision between a trailer and a lorry has never been closer. Trailers tend to come in at a lower price – although you obviously need to buy a towing vehicle if you don’t already have one – and now offer more in terms of storage space and even living accommodation than ever before. Yet a 3.5 tonne lorry offers more convenience and can be driven by a 17-year–old without taking an additional driving test. Many horses travel better in a lorry, while tack space or lockers mean that all equipment can be stashed away from the passengers, which is more pleasant in wet or muddy conditions. However, the latest trailer designs certainly do offer more flexibility. TVT Horseboxes, based in Reading, Berkshire, sells Fautras trailers, as well as Bloomfield lorries, and dealer Frank Connelly explains: “The Fautras Oblic can be specified for two, three or four horses, so has become popular even for disciplines such as polo, where traditionally a lorry is more common. “The horses travel herringbone, and there a useful tack storage area on the front offside, with the front ramp to the nearside. Fautras trailers have become very sought after because of their exceptional build quality, and are often chosen by customers who would not buy another make of trailer.” Until recently, Fautras also offered a trailer with living accommodation, but the pound/ euro exchange rate made the price unattractive to UK customers, so it was discontinued, explains Frank. However, another Fautras dealer, Tally Ho Trailers, can convert the three-horse Oblic to offer living space, while still leaving room for two horses.

Small horseboxes can often be built to order, like this one from Bloomfields Leisure Vehicles

Compact lorries

Of course, a small horsebox may suit some horse owners better than a trailer. Bloomfields Leisure Vehicles builds small horseboxes to order, and director Dean Moody explains: “You can have anything you want – small living, or if you can drive a lorry bigger than 3.5 tonnes, larger living on an extended chassis, as well as tack storage to suit your particular discipline and full height partitions.” www.HorseDeals.co.uk

It’s worth paying for exceptional build quality

ayley was keen to get on the road and out competing with her ex-racer, Denni while Julie was hoping to buy a happy hacker type and since collecting their incredible prize they’ve been having a whale of a time. Hayley and Denni have been getting out to their first eventing competitions while Julie fulfilled her aim of having her own horse again. She picked up her new mare Hettie a few months ago. “The horsebox has made all the difference to us, because now we can load up and go wherever we want,

whenever we want. It’s like driving a car and is brilliant for both the horses and us, it’s really comfortable and much easier to manage than a trailer.” says Julie. “Hayley’s been to her first events this year in it, and we’ve both enjoyed taking the horses out to fun rides as well. I couldn’t believe it when I won and had to double-check it was true – it’s an amazing prize and everyone should enter this year because someone has to win it. “Lots of people have asked us if we’d sell ours and the answer’s definitely no!”

Buying a trailer essential BUYinG aDViCe

Expert advice to help you make the right choice when choosing a new or second-hand trailer

R BUYING ADVICE

R

GOLDEN RULES

When buying a new or used trailer, important points to check include: l Does it have the option of a front unload ramp, or just a rear unload? Some new designs have a side ramp to help make the prospect of loading into a trailer more enticing from a horse’s point of view; while rampless, step-up entrances are another new option on some models. l How easy are the ramps to use and are there any signs of rot or wear?

W

ithout the huge running costs involved in running a lorry, trailers are often the common sense choice for owners who enjoy the odd weekend show and need transport to fresh hacking country and the occasional trip to the vet’s, etc. Whether you buy a brand new, top-of-therange trailer or a rather more modest second-hand one is a matter of personal choice and budget, but with manufacturers bringing new innovations to the market all the time, modern trailers are becoming ever more high-tech. With step-up ramps, state-of-the-art suspension systems and even live-in accommodation, today’s trailers are no longer the poor relation of the horsebox, and innovative design has been the driving force behind a host of exciting new models on the market – offering owners affordable options, while making sure their horses travel in safety and style.

High tech additions

New, innovative design features to look out for include: l Single trailers that provide more stall width than double models, and trailers specially designed to offer a roomy, comfortable ride for two horses up to 17.2hh l Low side ramps and lightweight design l Trailers with the payload capacity to travel three horses in a herringbone (diagonal) pattern l Improvements in suspension and axle engineering, which have improved the ride for horses – with modern trailers no longer the noisy, bouncy modes of transport they once were

l If you’re buying second-hand, has the trailer been well maintained? It’s easy to park them up and forget them, but it’s important they’re regularly serviced – during which a mechanic will take the wheels off and thoroughly check them, as well as the hubs and the brakes, and go over the electrics to make sure everything is working and undamaged. l If the trailer has been parked up for a while, check the tyre pressures, look for any flat spots and make sure the walls have not perished. l Check whether the ramp springs are well greased and check the ramp hydraulics are in good working order. l Some modern trailers have aluminium plank floors, which are maintenance free, but check the condition of wooden floors carefully. Have a good look around the area where the horses stand to make sure there is no damage to the floor or mats. l Check the the lights are working and have a look at the seven pin plug for connecting to the towing vehicle, as these can rust up.

Selling a horse? We explain the legal issues to consider when selling a horse, with advice from the experts at HorseSolicitor

T

he legal issues that need to be considered when selling a horse vary depending on whether or not the horse is being sold in the course of business or by a private seller. When selling a horse in the course of business, the Sale of Goods Act 1979 imposes terms that require the horse to be fit for purpose and of satisfactory quality. This means that if a buyer can prove that the horse is not fit for purpose the seller is legally obliged to refund the financial losses that have been incurred by the buyer as a result of the sale. This will include but not be limited to the purchase price. Under the Act for example a horse could be returned to the seller if it was purchased for show jumping but it transpired that it suffered from a pre-existing back condition that prevented it from performing. The buyer would need to prove that the horse is not of satisfactory quality by obtaining a veterinary report, the cost of which could be added to the claim against the seller. The veterinary expert would only need to state that on the balance of probabilities the injury pre-dated the purchase. When selling a horse in a private sale it is up to the buyer to check that the horse is of satisfactory quality. As the seller you do not have to disclose known defects but you must not mislead the buyer in any way by misrepresenting the horse. If the buyer can show that a statement was made by the seller that was false or misleading, that the seller made the statement to induce a sale and that had the seller not made said statement the buyer would not have purchased the horse then the buyer will have a claim against the seller for misrepresentation. The seller does not have to make a statement in order to mislead however. If the buyer tells the seller that they want the horse as a quite hack because they are a novice and the seller is aware that the horse can be strong and requires a competent rider then there is a legal

R SELLING ADVICE

it’s advisable to have a written agreement Hanna Campbell duty to disclose this to the buyer. As such remaining silent can give rise to a claim for misrepresentation. At HorseSolicitor we have dealt with a number of cases in which the rider has been over horsed. If misrepresentation is proven and the horse has caused injury the seller may have to meet a compensation claim. The seller in the course of a private sale also needs to ensure that the horse is as described as per Section 13 of the Sale of Goods Act. It is therefore important to ensure that the advertisement placed accurately depicts the horse that is being sold in terms of it’s age, size, history, ability and temperament. There are also occasions where a private seller would have a duty to disclose information in the course of a private sale without being asked. This would occur if the person selling the horse is known to the buyer and has a relationship in which trust is assumed. In these circumstances a fiduciary duty can be implied. The seller should insist on the buyer riding the horse to ensure that it cannot be returned under the Distance Selling Regulations. The Distance Selling Regulations enables a buyer to return a horse with no valid reason.

Insisting on the buyer meeting the horse prior to sale also enables them to ride the horse and assess whether or not it is for them. If someone is buying a horse for a specific purpose such as for dressage or jumping they should ride it in an arena or go over a few jumps. By meeting the horse the buyer is given the opportunity to gain an insight to the horse’s temperament and this can help to avoid disputes after sale. Whether you are selling in the course of business or privately it is always advisable to have a written agreement that documents all of the existing issues that the horse has. The document should give a detailed description of the horse that is being sold. It should include details of the horse’s age, vices, temperament, ability, history and any ailments that it has. Both parties should sign the document and the seller should answer honestly all questions that the buyer has about the horse. HD
