Some answers

Well - Neo trotted up lame yesterday. Not obviously, but just a little "off" - so I wonder if the other weekend at Tielcey was a combination of whatever soreness was coming through being increased by jumping (well, landing, really!). So I'm actually feeling a lot better about that.

Today Neo & Xev also had their shoes off and got trimmed with the intention of Neo going shoe-less next season and Xev just getting her hooves really well-balanced.

It's been rain, rain and more rain down here. I was supposed to pick up Gem this weekend, but have decided to stay warm and be lazy! Mum has some time off at the end of the week, so she may even deliver her for me which would be awesome. Gem's old owner found her dressage bridle tags too, and has popped them in the mail - so there will be no excuse for us not to be dressage queens for a few months at least.

Well that's a relief - not that Neo's lame of course but that you have an explanation for his behaviour. Seems like all your years of experience have given you pretty good intuition!!
