'Jingas"

Jin is a 16.1hh 8yo tb gelding.
With bling and 'look at me' movement he is the whole package.
Jin has been taken to the local indoor arena and a local jump day where we had trotters going around the outside track and the RAAF base doing air shows Jin handled everything very well for his second outing.
Jin was sent to me to get his basics after racing for his new owner but due to his bubbly personality, he is sadly not suited to anyone that is a beginner or novice rider and needs someone confident to help him in his new career whether it is jumping, dressage or interschool. He has a natural scope and has free jumped 1m with ease and no hesitation. Jin has never reared, bucked or Bolted, easy to float and for the farrier. $3500

Cliff is a 17hh 10yo tb gelding, with all the basics in place he is ready to go out and compete. He has previously jumped up to 80cm. Cliff would suit someone looking for a competitive interschool horse, dressage, jumping, and eventing. Good to s/f/t, with no buck, rear or bolt Cliff has a very calm laid back nature.

Happy Australia Day to everyone. What an amazing day it has been. We had the lovely Jess from JN Equine therapy have a ride and jump on one of the new boys and he did not disappoint. Cant wait for him to get out this year.

Who else is going through school holidays? After the feed cart was full from picking up sticks the kids had to figure out how to get the buckets back to the feed shed. This is one way.

19/12/2020

Who was it for you? For me it was my dad that carted me across the state to compete and for lessons. Helped me when I was down and out with the horses. My mum being very non horsey tried her best to support through the times of when it all became busy with school and competitions helping feed everyone left behind even though she was scared of horses.

It has been a while but here is a quick update with Sox's. He has been scoped for ulcer and he has come back as a grade 1 and they are healing. I had made the call that he needed to go onto treatment before he got scoped as he was showing every sign he had them. He has blossomed and we are excited to start the ground work stages with him now.

The calm before the storm this afternoon. Loving how green it is getting.

When I was in high school I had a large group of girlfriends 👯‍♀️ that I would sit with.

One day, I went and got my sandwich 🥪 and headed to the courtyard to sit down.

All of the girls were sitting in a circle ⭕️ and nobody moved to let me join.

So I sat down behind one of the girls 😔and began to eat my lunch.

I was very confused. 🤯

The leader of the group soon came over to me and said🗣 ‘Ummm Alex, we need to talk’

And I remember looking up at her👁👁 as she stood over me.

‘We are ‘us’ and you are ‘you’’🧠

All of the other girls watched on.

‘And you’re not really pretty enough to sit with us, ok’

👀

Without saying anything, I got up off the ground and wrapped up my sandwich 👣before walking by myself to the back oval where nobody could see me. 🚶🏼‍♀️

And I cried.

I feel as though many parts of the horse world 🌎 can make people feel like this too.

And I feel it so deeply when, literally DAILY, I am sent messages 📥or told in person about how someone at an event laughed at someone else who rode on the left lead around a right circle.

Or how at a clinic nobody sat with the person who ate different food 🥘 to them.

Or how ‘constructive advice’ came out at pony club like this - ‘you know she’s probably not good enough for that horse’. 🥁

Or how someone has trained for years for a competition that they’ll never go to 🔥because they are afraid of being judged by their weight.

I feel it. On a soul level, I feel it. ✨

After my ordeal that day (one that happened over a decade over ago ⏳and yet I still hold onto it), a girl from the group came out and sat with me. 💡

‘I don’t want to be friends with girls who make people feel like that’ she said to me. 🧘🏽‍♂️🧘🏼

And to this very day, she is one of the kindest, wisest friends I have. 🏅

I urge everyone to be like her.

To see the person who clearly knows nobody at a clinic 🌾and simply go over and ask ‘where abouts have you travelled from?’🌞

Or to see the rider learning in public 🌻and go over after and say ‘your horse is super slick looking! What are you feeding him?!’🌱

Be the person who sees a rider at pony club who is riding their 12hh pony with 6ft youth legs (so jealous, I am!!) 🍂and remark on how if you had that pony you’d never give him up either! 🍃

Be the one that sprinkles a little magic ⚡️wherever you go.

Because just like I remember the girl who made me question my worth 🥀that day, I also remember the girl who followed me out to the oval to remind me that she was wrong🌹

'Mishani Fernando'
17hh, 7yo TB Gelding,
Fernando would suit an intermediate to experienced rider (Due to his size) looking for a dressage prospect, with 3 established paces. Fernando has shown he loves to work and thrives off it. He has been in training for 6 weeks and has only had 1 outing due to covid. Even though he has the jumping ability he will not make a high level eventer and would only suit low-level jumping.

Huge shout out to Sam and her team at Lockyer Valley Ridden projects. She has given so many horses a second chance at life along with this special boy here that we picked up this morning. Sox has a long road ahead for him but can see it turning into something amazing. He has a huge appetite. Keep an eye out on our page to watch his progress.
