One area we have not touched on is a First Aid Kit that should be carried in your horse trailer whenever you haul your horse.
It can be as simple or as complicated as you like. We keep a similar kit in all the barns on the farm.

(Horses are always the most ill at three o'clock in the morning in a pouring down rain or the coldest night of the year....)
