video is your friend
Agree with mroades.
The last horse I sold, was sold to a buyer in NY. She never even came to try her. I sent her a pretty extensive video for a sales video and then when we did the vet check, her vet talked to the examining vet to get what x-rays and such she wanted then I videoed the flexions and lunging for that part. It was kind of good on other points. They were doing wicked noisy construction overhead in the building with the arena. Horsey took it all in stride which helped sell her:).

Do you have a vet you normally use for lameness things to whom you could send the PPE results.
To the vet check in absentia horror stories I can add the horse who had one of some large number of radiographs mysteriously disappear (and, similar to the Crone’s story, it was the critical one) and the radiographs that had the wrong pony’s name on them. But having a second vet look over the PPE and radiographs should catch the problem of the missing critical radiograph and videos should catch the pony swap.
