Fiona took Matty off to the vets today for them to have a look at his legs. The good news is that he is very happy with them - and diagnosed a month controlled exercise on the walker before being turned out. At the moment it looks as though Matty can come back into training in the first few months of 2010 - great news for his patient owners.I am looking forward to seeing him back as he will be a stonger horse when he returns and with his chasing career just getting going he should be a lot of fun. Important Business, who is also at Fiona's will start his controlled exercise on the walker tomorrow as part of his recovery. His bandages have been removed and all looks well, so hopefully he will be back in with Matty next year.
