SAVE THE DATE - The TBA Stud Farming Course (9-11 December) provides delegates with a comprehensive overview of key stud management topics. The programme features a series of talks from industry experts, including those from Newmarket Equine Hospital, Rossdales Veterinary Surgeons, and the Royal Veterinary College.
The first day will focus on the reproductive management of the broodmare, practical paddock management and parasite control.
Day two covers a range of horse management topics, including upper respiratory tract disorders, nutrition of the yearling, sales preparation and managing the commercial stallion.
The final day will focus on foaling and care of the newborn and older foal, including weaning, as well as management of growth defects and limb corrections.
In addition, across the three days, there will be visits to Newmarket Equine Hospital and Juddmonte Farms as well as a tour of the British Racing School. A course dinner on the first night will give delegates the opportunity to socialise with fellow delegates, speakers and industry professionals.
