News from Warwick 25/09/07

Today on the Horse Deals blog an article was posted stating that the Warwick horses would no longer be released on the 2nd of October, so we contacted our Morgan Park correspondent, Alishya Hill. We found Alishya during a very jovial session of community wheel barrow races, but she found time to do some investigating for us.

Have you heard if your release date has been changed?

No, but when we where told the 2nd of October, it was emphasised that this was a guide only and not to be surprised if it was two or three weeks later. I asked the person who had heard the date had been changed and she said one of the vets had told her. I asked the vet here this evening and he knew nothing about it. I was going to ask at the 7pm meeting but it was cancelled and we have been told the next meeting is Friday. I will try and find out more information tomorrow.

Do you know about a number of horses getting colic?

All the horses where to be drenched for worms today, as they thought it was a good idea with so many horses together for all this time. However, it has been put off for a few days due to some horse (I do not think as many as 15) getting colic the other night.

How is the yard problem?
Since the big meeting the other day people have been better, so hopefully it stays that way.

As with this whole EI out break the lack of communication is causing more problems than the disease. Hopefully we will get some more information tomorrow.
