Laminitis isn’t just a springtime concern, with autumn grass growth proving just as tricky.

A painful and potentially serious condition, you should always call your vet immediately if you suspect Laminitis, to minimise the risk of permanent damage.

Applying Animalintex Hoof Dressing as a hot, wet poultice can help improve circulation and ease discomfort, until your vet can further advise on the best course of action.

As we head into winter, we caught up with the team at McNab Eventing for a lowdown on the 2025 season.

"It’s been a fantastic year for McNab Eventing, we are so pleased with all the horses, with so many exciting notes to finish on.

"We had Faro Imp step up and show his class round his first 5*. Wilfred Lancer step up to 4* at Blenheim and Boekelo and our two beautiful seven-year-olds, Newmarket Amy and Chanel RF both shining at the Le Lion World Seven-Year-Old Championships!

"Both Quidley Kellermann and Alexa Gartenberg and their lovely team of horses have been based with us for a couple of years now and being part of their journey and development is very rewarding and so we are looking forward to another great year with them.

"We also welcomed two new girls into our yard this year - Lily Howell and Izzy Jordan. We’re looking forward to working with them both and their horses next season.

"We are now looking forward to a bit of down time for the horses and the Team, then we’ll be back into work and getting ready for a big 2026 season and World Championships year! "

Today, we pause to remember and honour all those who gave their lives in service — both people and animals.

As we observe the silence today, we remember every life that served and sacrificed for our freedom.

Lest we Forget.

A. As a wound heals, new blood vessels and skin cells form, starting at the edges. If the wound dries, a scab forms, which can slow the healing process.

In a moist environment, the skin can repair itself without a hard scab, often reducing the risk of scarring.

Wound dressings help protect a wound from dirt, bedding and contamination, and also provide a warm, moist environment that encourages wound healing.

Sterilisation kills microorganisms to avoid introducing bacteria to a wound.

Bonfire Night can be a stressful time for our horses. Sudden bangs and flashes can frighten even the calmest of horses — so here are a few ways to help keep them safe and settled:

🌾 Plan ahead: Check for any local firework displays and let organisers know there are horses nearby.
🏠 Bring them in: If your horse is happier inside, stable them with plenty of hay to keep them busy.
🎶 Soothing sounds: Leave a radio or soft music playing to help mask sudden noises.
👀 Stay calm: Horses pick up on our emotions — keep your routine as normal and relaxed as possible.
🧯 Check surroundings: Remove anything that could cause injury if your horse spooks, and ensure fences and gates are secure.

Let’s work together to make Bonfire Night safe for everyone — two- and four-legged alike. ❤️🐎

As many horses begin spending increased time in the stable, it’s important to adapt management practices to support their health and wellbeing.

We asked vet Harriet Deeming for her advice.

🏠 Stable Environment:
Maintain good air quality by ensuring stables are well-ventilated. Use dust-free forage and bedding, or lightly dampen bedding to minimise dust. Horses should ideally be removed from the stable during mucking out or bedding changes to prevent inhalation of airborne particles.

💧 Hydration and Digestive Health:
A sudden increase in time spent stabled can elevate the risk of colic. Always ensure an adequate and consistent supply of fresh water.

🧥 Rugging and Temperature Management:
As temperatures drop, select rugs appropriate for the individual horse and weather conditions. Consider using exercise or half sheets during warm-up and cool-down periods, and cool or wicking rugs post-exercise to aid drying while maintaining warmth.

Thoughtful adjustments to stable management and rugging routines will help support your horse’s respiratory health, digestion, and overall comfort throughout the colder months.
