Shins, works, and a household cleaner trick.
Phontiffs Wind, a 4yo who galloped on the farm and bucked a shin on a breeze at track. 2 weeks ahead in healing of Tiny. Jogging now. See slight buldge in left shin? About month old and is getting smaller.
Phontiffs Wind in the walker.
My rider makes the horse stand still then he jumps on-making horse stand in place. Depending on rider,this prepares horse for track where the riders are thrown on
Of course some riders need a leg up or a mounting block...
TS Fay good and workmanlike into the gates.
TS Fay fast out of the gates. Looks like a sprinter.
Spitfire needs racetrack, getting too fast for safety.
Spitfire getting too fast for the exercise track here. Needs a real track to stretch out on. Very aggressive early. Looks like a sprinter.
Irish Eagle wants to be a route horse. takes him three of our half miles laps to get into groove, then he continmues for a total of seven. Stayer material.
Spitfire done with gallop. He was getting fractious before going through gates. Today we walked him thru gates 3 times to acclimate and calm him. Seems very agressive, prly sprinter, personality and bodytype seem that way. Don't want him too hot or crazy into gates with nothing left for race.
I use a half cup of Pinesol per half gallon of water on a final rinse for the horses. Good antibacterial and pest repellant.
Applying the Pinesol rinse.
