About the course
Innovation happens at the elite level of every sport and the trickle-down effect means that new techniques and equipment are, in time, often adopted at the grassroots.
This course is designed to accelerate that trickle-down effect by inviting elite team members to explain how they work together to optimise equine performance at the highest level.
As we’re all aware, most unsoundness is a multi-site problem; it's rare to find a standalone suspensory, TMT, fetlock, or coffin joint pathology. Diagnosing the causes of the problems is the first challenge; finding a way to address all the conditions, is the critical and equally challenging second step, and getting this right frequently needs a team approach.
This course will focus on two ‘hot’ areas; discussing how they are managed:
In the morning, Ben Benson, Master Farrier, a veteran of Olympic support teams and the BEF’s World Class Programme, will join performance horse vet Sam Cutts, who breeds and produces her own eventers, and Annabelle Galt, a veterinary physiotherapist, clinical educator, and event rider, to discuss their team approach to multilimbed lameness cases.
After lunch, physiotherapist to the British Teams for Dressage, Showjumping and Eventing, Rachel Greetham, and Master Saddler Mark Fisher, who works on the BEF’s World Class Programme will join renowned researcher, sport horse clinician and fellow BEF team member, Rachel Murray, to discuss how they manage back pain in top equine athletes.
This course will be based on discussion, debate, and delegate engagement, rather than lectures. It will aim to highlight the benefits of a collaborative approach to cases and seek to demonstrate how cutting-edge management can be applied at all levels of horse sport.
What will I learn?
By the end of the course you will...
1. Have increased awareness of different ways to approach common problems.
2. Be able to discuss pros and cons of different approaches with clients.
3. Be able to formulate a variety of different treatment/management pathways and understand the impact of the plan on the rest of the horse.
