I need to get my sister a birthday present (belated) and have two questions for the .org:
1) Do you know of any good online equine stores?
2) Any ideas what to get her? - With her horse she does hunting/cross country/a bit of general eventing. She is always skint trying to keep her horse so I'd like to get her something nice that she wouldn't splash out on herself - Something like a nice can for an SV or a set of sticky rubber if you get what I mean.
Looking forward to the suggestions.

Used these to get some reins and a numnah for one of the girls at work. Seems to be good value, and the service was good. hth
Will a horse fit through the letter box? :D

as phil-dan said robinsons is good but you could always look for derby house saddlery.
things to get her well being another skint horse rider, i would appreciate things such as, rug for horse, new tack( ie, reighs, numnah ),leather headcoller for horse.
or for your sister herself, a good outdoor coat, sturdy boots, jodpurs
need anymore suggestions just pm dave
ps lots of these things are size specific to the horse

If she competes a lot and doesn't yet have these.....she'll love them

If you only get one, get the boot bag or saddle bag, or get a few now and ask if she wants the rest for Christmas.
This is a good site, I have used it loads, delivery is very fast and service has always been excellent. I've used robinsons too, but always had better prices and service from equestrian clearance.
There's loads on there and if you know anything about her horse....share with us and I'm sure we can come with some more ideas!

Prequestrian sell through eBay at very good prices. Service is good as well.
If you're not sure of what to get, vouchers might be an option - a lot of stuff needs to be sized for her/her horse.

The best and most thoughtful gift is a nice show headcollar in leather with her horses name engraved onto the brass plate on the side!
This is the online shop I use:
