Scooby is Paul’s event horse, and started the 2008 season well by being placed 3rd at Borde Hill and 6th at Eridge. He unfortunately damaged his suspensory ligament very badly at Eridge, and having spent 3 months on box rest (during which he was very well behaved despite being very fit at the time!), he has now been scanned again and the injury looks to be healing much better than expected. He is now starting his walking work again and having restricted turn out, and will continue to progress back to fitness over the winter.

Scooby is a very sweet natured horse. He is very brave and bold cross-country, which is his favourite part of eventing. He would love to spend all his time galloping and jumping, and finds everything else very boring! He was entire until he was 3 years old, so sometimes likes to think he is still a stallion!
