NaughtyNeigh2 Report post Posted May 20, 2016 Looks like an old injury to a joint and arthritis and fluid. Can't remember the proper terminology for it but an old event mare had the exact same and it was an old injury, progressively worse as she got into her late teens and had bad arthritis formed in it. He looks windgally in all his lower legs too it seems. Is he sound? How much work is he in? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
