24.01.2022 AUCTION Tribulation (IMP/DEC) Service Thanks to the generosity of Jackie Lawson at Tudor Pines Lodge, we are auctioning a service to Tribulation to go towar...ds the ‘Hustler Fund’. Tribulation really doesn’t need an introduction, he is the super sire of my golden child and a 3 time reserve world champion himself. I credit this breeding to Hustler and Sarina’s incredible talent and versatility, and also to all the factors that make them my ideal performance horse: their sensibility, intuition, responsiveness and want to work with you. We know what Hustler has gotten up to results wise, with National and state titles across dressage, show hunters, hacks, led hack, hunter in hand and halter, but of course their are many other superstars by Trib. If you search results you will see national titles in western pleasure, hunter under saddle, trail etc with professionals, amateurs and youths alike... and open performances in the likes of eventing and working equitation, I’m sure there is more. I’ve always felt my Tribs will put their best hoof forward to whatever discipline I want to try and I have not been let down! Trib’s service fee is 3500 + collection storage fee of 330. Availability of this is sadly limited now so a great opportunity to secure this. Let’s start the auction at 1750, half the service fee, including collection/storage I am happy for people to bid via PM if you want to stay anonymous.. just send me a message and I’ll put your bid as a comment anonymously on your behalf. Open now and closing Sunday 21st February 11:59pm thank you for helping the golden boy x P.s. even if this isn’t the time for you to bid I’d so appreciate if you’d share A little context for those who aren’t on my Facebook - my beautiful Hustler SP experienced a life threatening paddock accident on Jan 5 where he severed all three extensor tendons, muscles etc to the bone above the knee on his left fore. It was and is a very horrific time, but we are all SO thankful for the quick thinking and incredible work the vets have put into saving my golden boy. He is not out of the woods but is doing sensationally, our first goal was to save his life and we seem to have done that, so the next one is to bring him home when the time is right and it is finally looking like he will be coming back here Jackie has so kindly donated this Tribulation service to help cover the expense of surgery/vet care/rehab/bandages for many months to come... I am so so so grateful and also so grateful for future bidders for helping me bring the Golden Boy home. I obviously had to throw everything in to try and wouldn’t change that for the world but it is a tough time with Uni/placement/no work so thank you to everyone helping xxx there is a go fund me set up by my gorgeous family too - https://gofund.me/2f9976d3 hugs to you all and thank you from myself, the Golden Boy and the family behind me

23.01.2022 FAILED VETTING ??? Flexion Tests??? 100% worth a read! You’ve decided to sell your horse and the potential buyer has sent a veterinarian to your stables to pe...rform a pre-purchase exam. Or, you’re the buyer, and you’re excited to complete your purchase. As you stand, beaming with satisfaction, the veterinarian picks up the horse’s left front leg. Bending it at the fetlock, he or she holds it in the air for 60 seconds or so, releases the limb, and asks that the horse be immediately jogged down the drive. In astonishment, you watch as the horse that you’ve known or hoped to be sound moves off with an obvious bob of the head. He’s most decidedly lame after the test. What happened? What does it mean? What you have witnessed is a phenomenon not necessarily of the veterinarian’s creation, but something that can sometimes occur following a procedure called a forelimb flexion test. In a forelimb flexion test, various joints and soft tissue structures of the lower limb are stretched and/or compressed for a brief period of time by bending the limb. Afterward, the horse is immediately trotted off and observed for signs of lameness. Simple, really. But it gets messy. Forelimb flexion tests were described in Swedish veterinary literature as early as 1923. And, since then, they’ve become something of an integral part of the evaluation of the lame horse. But not only that, forelimb flexion tests are generally routinely included in prepurchase evaluations of horses intended for sale. The test is not unlike what you might experience if someone asked you to sit in a crouch for sixty seconds and then run right off. Usually and especially if you’ve never had knee problems you can run off just fine, particularly after a couple of steps. If you’ve never had a problem, chances are that you’re fine, no matter what happens in those first couple of steps. But very occasionally, that stiffness and soreness that you might feel could signal a problem (such as a bad knee). This test used to make me nuts, and to some extent, it still does. That’s because I’m often not to sure what to make of the state of things when a horse takes some bad steps after a flexion test. I mean, I know I might not pass such a test. So who’s to say that every horse should? Because of that question, back in 1997, I did I study. It’s still timely. In my study, I looked at fifty horses (100 legs) of various breeds, ages, sex, and occupation. The owners were gracious enough to let me explore my curiosity about forelimb flexion tests. The horses were from my practice, an included a wide variety of pleasure and performance horses including some world class jumping horses but overall, they were a representative sampling of all of the horses that were in my practice. Here’s what I found. I found that forelimb flexion tests couldn’t tell me anything about the future of a sound horse. I could make every single horse lame with a hard enough flexion test, with the exception of one particularly annoying Arabian gelding who was always trying to bite me (no Arabian jokes, please). Horses that had something on their X-rays weren’t any more likely to be lame after a normal flexion test than horses that had clean X-rays. Horses that had positive normal flexion tests weren’t any more likely to be lame 60 days out, either (those horses that were lame mostly had things like hoof abscesses, which nobody could have predicted anyway). If you follow a groups of horses for 60 days, there’s a decent chance that a few of them might experience an episode of lameness. Who knew? So what did I conclude? Well, I said right there in front of an entire meeting of the American Association of Equine Practitioners that I didn’t think that it was a good idea to rely on forelimb flexion tests to make a diagnosis of some current or future problem without some other supporting sign. I said I didn’t think that they were very sensitive, or that they were very specific. And I said that I didn’t think it was a good idea to turn a horse down base solely on a response to a forelimb flexion test, either. Which caused a bit of a kerfuffle. What’s the Bottom Line? If you’re a seller, I don’t think that you need to be overly concerned if your otherwise sound horse takes a few lame steps after a forelimb flexion test. There are just too many variables. For example: Older horses are more likely to be positive to flexion that are younger horses The longer you hold a limb in flexion, the more likely the horse is to take a few lame steps afterwards Men tend to flex more firmly than do women The same horse may have different responses to flexion tests on different days If you’re a buyer, don’t be too eager to walk away from a horse that you otherwise like just because he takes a few lame steps after a flexion test. You have to consider a lot of other factors, such as whether you like the horse, or whether he does what you want him to do, or if he’s a colour that you like... You just can’t consider the forelimb flexion test in a vaccum. It has to interpreted in light of clinical findings such as fluid in the joint, reduced limb or joint flexibility, pain to palpation, or clinical lameness in the limb that demonstrates the positive response. If you see abnormal X-rays findings (such as osteoarthritis) in a limb that has a positive response to a flexion test, that may add some significance, and particularly if there is concurrent clinical lameness. However, to keep things confusing, my study also found that many radiographic abnormalities occur in clinically sound horses. Remember, you have to ride the horse you can’t ride the radiographs. Horses can and do perform well for a variety of riding endeavors even when they do not perform well on a forelimb flexion test. As for a positive response to a forelimb flexion test, it may just be that everything is OK, but the horse doesn’t like his leg bent up!

12.01.2022 Harley (AKA) Tall Dark n Smart 12yo, 15hh, AQHA mare Q-60606. Harley loves people, is super friendly, quiet, easy going and smart. As a 3YO Harley spent almost 12 months with a professional trainer (David Norbury) and competed successfully during this time in Hunter Under Saddle, Trail and Western Pleasure events at local shows. Harley then went on to become a valuable broodmare for 7 years. Recently Harley has been difficult to breed so I have made the very difficult decision to look for a perfect ridden home for her. Harley has taken coming back into work in her stride, she has not put a hoof wrong. Harley is a very quiet, easy-going, sensible and smart mare. Harley can be viewed in on the sunshine coast and is currently being ridden by an 11yo girl. - $ 11,500
