Essential Care of the Ridden Horse Hardcover - 2002

by Peter Gray


From the publisher

He sets out to extend and reinforce that knowledge with this thorough yet easy-to-read guide to caring for the ridden horse. Whether the owner enjoys gentle hacks through the countryside or the thrill of competition, understanding how to keep the horse at peak fitness is all part of the relationship. Peter Gray pays particular attention to to those common conditions that call a temporary halt to riding activity - lameness, respiratory infections, muscular strains - but that are very often caused by incorrect management and are therefore avoidable. He also unravels the important factors that influence performance in horses facing active competition; the practical, sensible everyday things that can mean the difference between losing and winning. This is a book of good sense, practical advice and thorough expert knowledge for all owners who want the best for their horses.

First line

It is appropriate to begin with a definition of performance, because as well as the immediate priority of making sure a horse is fit to be ridden each day for purely leisure purposes, this book is about how to express peaks of health and ability when these are needed in competition.
