Greenbrook Gyps Cobs

12/11/2024

Ok so we have decide on a name for this filly. She is the product of SD Bombays last service and she is sweet and 5 star, so we are going for a play on words. A friend Jacqui suggested Alaska. I love Bombe Alaska it is a classy desert served last at the end of an allocate meal. We have named her Greenbrook Bombay Alaska now 1 week old, enjoy.

Do I love our new property and the Widebay Burnett area of QLD??? The young stock don't grow out as well, and the mares don't hold their condition as well. Just to add insult to injury I got my 2 yr old fillies in today to do some training and they have ticks on them, really :( Not happy JAN

So over the moon, at the respectable time of 5am Greenbrook Isabeau had a Tribay filly to SD Bombay. We have named her Greenbrook Bombay's Legacy. She has now dried off to reveal the bone and feather that we will have. Still well down on her bumpers but dry pics taken at 3 1/2 hrs old, the other ones are her finding her feet for the very first time first time :) She is the second last Bombay foal and will be retained, it was love at first sight.

I loaded Greenbrook Wyndenvale up today and took him to my neighbours for a ride in her yard with her her geldings through the fence for his 12th ride. Never been on my truck before and loaded like a dream. He worked well, we only do 10 to 15 minutes as he is not 3 yrs old till early December. He may be just over 15hh but still a baby. So happy with the work ethic and temperament on this boy. He is by The Butler out of Bob's Blossom.

I got my clearance from the Specialist on Thursday morning along with a word of caution, I have not had the full use of my left arm for just over 14mths and two rounds of surgery on it, so take it steady or I will tear muscles and tendons if I push it too hard too fast.
DOBBY IS FREE
So today, I rode Greenbrook Wyndenvale he is almost 3 yrs old and rugged him for the first time, so now to get him clean, get his feather back and educated ready for Gatton Heavy Horse. Then to train last years foals. So great to get my life back, but man am I unfit lol

I hate tax time when you are registered as a Primary Producer, it means you have to submit livestock numbers for tax purposes, so the ATO can tax you on Natural increases.
When asked how many horses I have, I always say a few, but this time of year I actually have to count them up and look at real numbers LOL.

So who else has Cobs who turn into Yacks in the winter sporting 3" of coat? Greenbrook Wyndenvale now 15hh at 2 1/2 yrs old

So I had Greenbrook Wyndenvale in on the weekend, for a bit of a clean up and training session. He is now 27 months old and has had another growth spirt. Just a tad under 15hh, just the size I love. Will be exciting to see him at his mature height in the future :)

So Gatton is over for another year and what a Gatton it was. I made a call this weekend that I never though I would make and asked to be excused from a Supreme Champion Class. SD Bombay had Greenbrook Midnight Rose alongside him all night and Rosie was in season stirring him up, and due to my recent shoulder surgery I an limited to a 2.5kg weight limit on my left hand. Greenbrook Midnight Rose won Reserve Champion Mare and SD Bombay won Champion Stallion. SD Bombay forgot his manners and just wanted to go back to his mare so we withdrew from Competition and returned to the stables, no ribbon is worth blowing up a young stallion or upsetting my rehab on my shoulder. See pics below. I would like to thank the Committe, the Judges and other competitors for making it a brilliant and friendly great weekend 😍

A few more pic of SD Bombay at the Burrum Active Ridders All Breeds show last Sunday. Was a great show with 150 horses entered. Enjoy!

28/04/2024

So today I took SD Bombay out to the Burrum Active Riders All Breeds Show. It was his first outing in 12 months and he was a tad over excited and fresh. He still managed to win the following:
1st Best Presented Heavy Horse
1st Heavy Horse Stallion
Champion Heavy Horse
Supreme Champion Led Stallion All Breeds.
Could I have done without his over exuberance at times, yes and towards the end he was stretching out as he will not relive himself in hand even if he is bursting. Upon returning to his yard post classes he stretched out and produced an impersonation of Niagra Falls LOL I would like to say a big thank you to all associated with this show it was a fantastic day despite the intermittent showers. Also a thank you to the competitors of the Heavy Horse classes and Special Thanks Rebekah Melrose for the pics.
Results:
1st Best Presented Heavy Horse
1st HH Stallion
Champion HH
Supreme Champion Stallion All Breeds

It rained all the way there and all the way home however 90% of the time at the show was dry :)

Once again I have been asked if i could do a breed demonstration session at Gatton. In the past I have shared my demonstration time in the indoor arena with the Drums, this year I would like promote the versatility of the partbred. Who is bringing partbreds to Gatton who would like to be involved with their horse? Would like some different types of crosses and some pures that are both ridden and led to keep the crowd visually entertained whilst listening. And as per in past years we will have some on the fenceline to allow people to get up close and pat them over the rail.
