Hey everyone!

	As you may have noticed, we are missing quite a few regular articles in 
this issue! This is about half the length Horse Mania normally is. So come 
on guys, let’s try and get them all back for next issue! :o) I don’t know 
where you’ve all got to. If you’re finding that you’re too pressed for 
time to continue writing your column, please let me know because I’ve got 
a few people that are very keen to be a writer but all the column ideas 
are already taken! :o) Thanks.
	We had quite a few people send in their reviews for “Thoroughbred”- the 
series of books. You can find those printed later on in this issue. I’ve 
also added new reviews for Black Beauty & The Saddle Club on the website, 
and you’re still welcome to submit your review of those. However, our 
*NEW* review for this issue is of- King of the Wind! The story of the 
Godolphin Arabian by Marguerite Henry. You can visit 
https://www.angelfire.com/id/horsemania/king.html to read my review and 
submit your own. All those reviews will be in next issue. 
	And finally, before I go, I have to say Congratulations to all the 
winners of Horse Mania Webpage Awards in July 2000! They are all listed 
later on in this issue. We’ve already had some August winners, so keep 
those applications coming in! I haven’t completely worked my way through 
the ones I have backed up but I’m getting close...finally! 
	Well that’s about it for now. I hope you enjoy this issue and I’ll talk 
to you again soon. And keep all those great contributions coming in!

ARCHER’S CORNER by Archer 

Hey there!!

I’ve been off my horse for over 6 months!!! I haven’t been able to ride 
her ‘cause of a Mosquito bite she got in summer. But even so I still 
manage to get some horsey work and make it fun!! I’ve made an old shed 
that I used for hay into my brand new Tack room. With this I left nearly 
half of my garage empty!! As I did the moving I figured that my tack 
needed a good clean. To clean 4 saddles and more than 6 bridles takes a 
long time and effort but it’s worth  it.

Here are some tips on the topic. 

Just because you may not be riding as often, or  don’t feel like cleaning 
your tack in a cold barn, it’s no excuse for neglecting it. If you stash 
your expensive leather equipment in a tack trunk and close the lid until 
August flowers, you may have a filthy, moldy mess on your  hands.

Leather is a living material which contains natural moisture and oils,  
and needs to breathe and be nourished. Sweat and soap are it’s two worst  
enemies, and will eat away at it if not properly removed. To extend the 
life of your leather saddles, bridles, martingales etc, follow these 
simple instructions:

- Water should be used to wash off dirt and sweat after every ride. Dirt 
left between the stirrup  leathers and saddle flaps can cause a lot of 
rubbing and wear.

- Every 3-5 rides,  clean your saddle and bridle with a glycerin-based 
soap. Water must be used to rinse off the soap film so that the pores are 
not clogged (just like your face!).

- Leather is really just a treated skin (cow skin), and skin is made up of 
aprox. 70-80%  water. Even after the training process, about 25% of the 
moisture remains. After soaping and rinsing your tack, use a leather cream 
conditioner (balsam or beeswax is good. Also the cream you use for 
footwear does the job) to replace the moisture removed during cleaning. 
Don’t apply too much to the girth billets or stirrup leathers; you don’t 
want them to stretch.

- Leather oil  (such as neatsfoot) can be used, but sparingly. Too much 
can cause blotches and  loosen the glue and stitching. It can also sink in 
to the saddle panels and cause the wool inside to pack down. Oil is very 
powerful- applying it too often can actually break the leather down and 
rot the stitching.

- Don’t store tack in plastic bags, or anywhere where there is no flow of 
air. This is just an  invitation for mold and mildew to grow.

- Lastly, use the time you spend cleaning your tack to check it for cracks 
or needed repairs. If  you hate hanging around a cold barn to do this 
chore, then take your tack back  home with you, pop a good horse movie 
into the vcr and clean it in front of the fire in your rec room!! 

Remember, cleaning your tack is part of horsemanship, cleaning your barns, 
tack room etc are all too. So keep up the good work and be as tidy as 
possible, it all pays off!!!

REVIEWS: THOROUGHBRED

Every two weeks a new review of a horse book or movie is put up on the 
Horse Mania website.There is also a form to fill out for you to have your 
say if you want. Everyone’s review is posted on the website, along with my 
own review and then all of them are printed in the next issue of the Horse 
Mania Newsletter.

Visit https://www.angelfire.com/id/horsemania/reviews.html to read all the 
reviews, and submit your opinion if you’d like to. New reviews of THE 
SADDLE CLUB and BLACK BEAUTY have been added since last issue, and you can 
still have your say on any of the reviews that are there!

The last review was of THOROUGHBRED, the series of books for young 
horselovers. Here is what people think of it.

============
Thoroughbred
Author: Joanna Campbell

Thoroughbred is a series of books mainly centering around the racing 
stable “Whitebrook”. The books switch between which is the central 
character, but all are connected in some way. Each book tells a story 
centering around horses, often about training difficult horses or other 
aspects of horse racing. There are also “Super Editions” and some stand 
alone books on different characters and other disciplines besides racing 
which make a nice change. It is a continuing series, so the characters do 
age and it helps to read the books roughly in order although it isn’t 
necessary. 

The Thoroughbred books are a good “step up” from The Saddle Club, being 
slightly longer. I enjoyed them a bit more then The Saddle Club and the 
main content of the books is about horses and not other things. Of course, 
like all series, after you read a few they start becoming a bit repetitive 
but Thoroughbred has pretty good lastability compared to some. It is 
helped by the fact that it is a progressing story and the main characters 
(both human and equine) change frequently. I recommend this series to any 
young horselover!


RATING:  3 and a 1/2

Comments: I love the Thoroughbred books, they are excellent! But I agree 
with Susan, they are a bit repetitive. Try them for yourself!

Rating: 5!
Comments: I think Thoroughbred is an awesome series! Although switching 
from racing to jumping to eventing themes can be a bit confusing a truly 
enjoy the books, the bond between the horses and kids is great. The books 
are well written, even though they seem to have the same outcome in every 
book.

Email: Dom@rka.com.au
Rating: 3
Comments: Okay, so I never really got onto thoroughbreds, the books are 
well written and presented but focused far to much on the racing scene. A 
bit repetitive, but to be expected. It would be easier for me to rate 
this, on a book by book basis, as I do enjoy the books in the series more 
based around other disciplines, rather than just racing. All in all a nice
read. Definitely a step up from saddle club, both in size and actual story 
lines.

Comments: I love the Thoroughbred series. But there are some things that I 
do not like about it. For example, Joanna Campbell does not write all of 
the books, there are a few different writers who make up the books. 
Because of this, the story lines often suffer, I think. On the other hand, 
though, they also benefit, because there are fresh ideas incorporated so 
the plots don't repeat too often. It is a great series for any age.

Comments: I love the Thoroughbred series! I have almost all of the books 
in it. It's so good it makes you want to keep reading and not put it down. 
It's Reading Level 5, but all ages can enjoy these books. I recommend the 
series to everyone.

Email: Troo11@aol.com
Rating: 4
Comments: I think that Thoroughbred books were great. Besides being 
repetitive they were good. I read them in order from number 1 to 24 then I 
stopped. The books are not mainly centered around the racing stable 
'Whitebrook'. The first 6 are about "Townsend Acres" and after the first 6 
the books weren't as interesting. I could predict what was going to 
happen. I liked the first 6 better because they were mostly about a girl 
named Ashleigh and one horse Wonder. Then as more books came out they 
started being about Samantha and not Ashleigh and after Samantha they were 
about Cindy. No offense to the author but as more books came out the worse 
the books got.

they really got me into racing and now I understand it and appreciate it a

Brook. I recommend these books to all horse lovers.

HOT HORSE STUFF by Kaitlin 

- News from the Horse World -

1~ Ever wonder if the farrier could figure out another way to put on your 
horse's shoes? Well, there is. Some horses at the track have their shoes 
glued
 on instead of nailed! The glue is very strong, but the farrier probably 
uses 
a substance to loosen up the glue before removing the shoe to replace it. 

2~ Have a young horsey friend? Then show her Barbie Riding Club! It's a 
sim 
game for young girls which allows you to name, trail ride, race, jump and 
go 
on adventures with your choice of four horses. It's a lot of fun for young 
riders. You are Barbie and you guide her to finding a mystery horse, going 
on 
adventures, advancing in levels, racing others, etc! Great for young 
horselovers.

3~ Do you wear a helmet when you ride? If you don't, you should! It can 
help 
prevent serious injury and even save your life. Even if you ride 
Saddleseat, 
Dressage or Western, you should still have a helmet on your head. In fact, 
if 
you don't, you could be arrested! New York State now has made it a law 
that 
you must wear a helmet whenever you are on a horse. Other states may 
(hopefully) follow suit, so start the habit now, so you don't get caught 
then! :)

TELL US ABOUT YOURS

This a section where you can tell us about your own horse, or the horse 
you ride.Send it in to Susan at thehorse@hotpop.com and I’ll put it in the 
newsletter. We love to hear from you! If you like you can also submit your 
horse’s photo to Horse Mania’s online gallery of readers’ horses at 
https://www.angelfire.com/id/horsemania/gallery.html 

“Horse: Solid as a Rock (aka: Rocky)
Color: Bay
Breed: Welsh Cob / Paint
Gender: Gelding
Age: 4
Height: 14.1hh
He's a sweetheart. On the ground, he's perfect...almost bomb-proof I tell 
you. He's very smart. The first time I brought him to a "bridge" he just 
looked at it and studied it. After some encouraging, he decided it was 
okay 
and went over it perfectly a zillion times! *lol* He knows better than to 
kick or bite, although he does nibble out of respect (horses like to 
scratch 
back, they don't know you're not a horse). Although, he is young and when 
I 
ride him he can be the biggest brat...but that's a pony for you. Think 
they're easier than horses? Ha! You've never ridden a real pony 
before...he 
he! Tossing his head, fighting the bit and being a dork are some of his 
less 
enduring traits, but he learns quick and has been progressing in his 
training. We pop over fences at about two feet - no need to rush him. Next 
year we'll probably do Hopeful Hunters (2' for green horses in their first 
year of showing o/f) or, if he's good maybe some Novice or Pre-Green 
classes 
(probably 2'3"-2'6" but I'm not sure). Anyways, I love my pony...my dad 
(six 
feet, over 200lbs) has ridden him. He's VERY solid...Solid as a Rock. He 
he!”
-Kaitlin

“Name: Willie
Breed: Appaloosa POA
Age: 8  
I work at a stable in exchange for riding.  Willie used to be a showpony, 
he went to nationals and did extremely well.  He was bought to be a 
children's horse to learn on, but is very stubborn and I am the only one 
who 
can handle him, so I always ride him.  He is usually pretty sweet to me, 
but 
he can certainly be a handful!  Like last week when we went around a 
corner 
in the woods and were face to face with a bear..........................”

HORSE WEBSITE REVIEWS by Casey 

The  theme for this issue is fun:) horse websites and clubs you can join!! 
Hope you like em!! Remember, if you know of ANY good websites or themes, 
lemme know!!! Okay, I know this is off the subject, but I just heard of a 
good way to get rid of rain rot. After the horse gets rained on, you wash 
her/him with regular water and that usually solves the problem. If you 
forget, then put sulfur soap on and leave it on. *=terrible  *****= awesome
Fun Horse websites
This 
is a 
cool club you can join
This site is put together pretty well, and has a lot of good stuff!****

“I just wanted to let you know about a problem that has happened a lot 
lately. 
Many people have bought horses from horse sales. One of my friends bought 
a 
horse that was said to be 10-12 years old. It was a tricolor paint. After 
getting the horse she had its age checked. Come to find out the horse was 
26 
years old and could not be ridden. I just wanted to tell you to make sure 
that you know what you want and get the horse checked before buying it.”
