I'd bring some leg linament/sore no more.

It seems like you have a pretty good list though. Good luck!

I always bring my vet kit with bute, banamine, electrolytes, vet wrap, etc. I hope that if I'm prepared I won't need it!

I also noticed you had horse cookies listed--make sure you pack plenty of people cookies too, or those horse cookies start looking mighty tasty...

Looks like a good list . Be careful of your ride rules read them carefully.....Some rides do not allow linament and such at the vet check areas. Make sure you have a first aid selection for yourself. Sun bloc,Chapstick,etc that you like. The ride will probably have snacks for people and horses but we always pack a granola bar and a trail water bottle. I want to go back and look at your list do you have a sponge on a string? great for cooling down those veins on the neck. There are a lot of fancy gadgets that monitor p&R for you. How serious or rated is this ride?

You don't have extra reins on your list, or at least a good leather repair kit for broken reins or saddle repairs.

Don't forget the duct tape!
