ISSUE #38 -
APRIL 2016
We hope you all had a wonderful Easter, we both ate
far too much chocolate and are now looking forward
to another busy month spent burning it off!
This month we headed out to Wandin to watch the
jumping and cross country - so that certainly would
have taken care of at least a couple of excess kilos! As
usual, Wandin was a WONDERFUL event - it really is
a highlight on the calendar when it comes to a great,
fun and relaxed atmosphere. (Page 36!)
With the coming of the new season, rugs are coming
out of storage and some will be considering buying
new for the winter, take a look at our HOTTEST Winter
Rugs - along with some sound advice on how many
rugs your horse actually needs at one time. (Page 98.)
Of course every season brings its challenges and in
Victoria there will soon be a significant hay shortage
- so now is the time to be pro active and sort all of your
horses dietary needs for the coming months.
Be sure to check your paddocks for pesky weeds that
may have detrimental impact on your horses health,
Autumn is the favourite of all months for weeds like
Flatweed, read all about it on page 74.
Until next month, happy riding!
