The effect of having had a foal before

Is there any effect on the horse if she's had a foal before? With competing and so on? 😁 Can you ride as normal and so on? 😁 Please describe! 😁
Answers from HayHay's experts

It depends on how fit the mare was beforehand, how many foals she has had, whether she had room to move while she was in foal, whether the foaling went well without complications, and how much she could move in the months after foaling. Most mares can come back and be trained and ridden as normal, but the factors above determine how long that will take 😊
