At Last!

The majority of the horses are finally out to grass. It has taken us about a week to sort them all out into the fields. We use the school in the winter so that the horses can still have a play, a buck and a roll..this saves the fields for the summer but it does mean that it can be a bit of a hairy exercise turning them out for the first time. Our vet appeared to visibly blanche when she saw nineteen horses take off at full tilt and then launch into the pond....
The old boys rather surprisingly went off at a more sedate pace and haven't lifted their heads since.
BT continues to go through a bit of a tough time because he was so under par when he came back. He has developed an abcess on one of his legs and is on heavy medication, but he is going out on good grass with his pal Al and it is to be hoped that he will pick up before too long.
