Having said that, she encountered a setback last summer but has come through this winter with flying colors and is the soundest she has ever been. If she continues on this trajectory there is no reason why a very small child couldn't ride her.

I would consult with a homeopath to determine it its' right for your horse. In any case homeopathic remedies should not be used for more than a week or two at any given time.
