  Swimming Pool    
             
    We completed the building of an equine swimming pool in October 2000 and we are thrilled to have such a fantastic facility. At this time of year, every horse that is exercised has a swim after he has worked and you can just imagine what a benefit that is through the hot weather. Obviously its most important use is to exercise those horses that for whatever reason are unable to be cantered that day.    
         
       
         
       
         
       
         
       
               
    These reasons might include sore shins, little splints, bruised feet - all sorts of little irritations. By using the pool we lose less time through these sorts of delays. You are unable to get a horse fit by solely swimming him but it is a tremendous extra exercise particular for the heavy topped horses who have had tendon injuries in the past. I am sure that we do a better job now that we have the swimming pool and a wonderful thing for our owners is that we do not charge for its use!
