Happy Wednesday! Amber the pony and Elliot off for a run.
Toowoomba Jump Club Height day. Good outing for the babies.
Maize soaking up all the attention ❤️
Stable Court - was very fitting for our group lesson ride yesterday.

Queensland Off The Track Program Showjumping Showcase at Ekka 2024. Dusty Girl and I had a nice round for one rail down in the 1.05m class to place 7th overall.
Huge thanks to the QOTT for putting up the sponsorship to allow us to showcase what these retired TBs can do.

I have a few wonderful horses looking for new rein holders. If you’re looking for something in particular feel free to get in touch. All well schooled, been used as riding school horses and been out and about competing. Both TBs are in the Queensland Off the Track Showjumping Leaderboard top 5 and are also Equimillion eligible (also entered to compete for this year).
Both TBs are in the Queensland Off The Track retrainer program and will come with over $1500 worth of bonuses and lessons to claim (to eligible buyers, refer to QOTT website for more details).
Their Horsedeal add links in comment. (Pally add still to come). I will also make a photo album of each on my page.
Had a great day out at Oakey Pony Club and Brymaroo Pony Club joined rally teaching the skills and techniques of mounted games. Thanks for having me 😃
Thanks to Queensland Off The Track for supporting these classes at Ekka.

We added another OTT TB to the herd this week and she will commence retraining through the Queensland Off The Track program. She has slotted in perfectly, and is super smart.
Fast and Fancy speed class. Never underestimate how less is better (maybe not mankini amount less) when trying to jump 🤣
The first costume just wasn’t going to cut it because well, when you can’t see the jumps it makes it very difficult 🤣 so we settled for a unicorn 🦄
Running Cooling
Couldn’t just eat the hay like a normal horse? 😐
We have a very rare spot available in our school term block group riding lessons. Fridays 3:45-5:15pm, a whole hour and a half of hands on horsey time!

We have a beautiful mare in for retraining through the Queensland Off The Track retraining program at the moment and is showing to be very promising. ❤️
'Step Lively' aka 'Leggsy' is checking out all of the fabulous products she has received as part of the New OTT Owner Welcome Pack 🎁
Leggsy is one lucky girl after surviving a nasty bite on her muzzle from a red belly black snake! 🐍

Tell me without telling me your off the track thoroughbreds are quiet 😆 Queensland Off The Track retraining program horses Cocktail King and Civitas are turning out to be superstars 🤩 #qottacknowledgedretrainer #offthetrackthoroughbreds #flintonparkequestrian
What’s faster than a herd of galloping horses? A herd of off the track thoroughbreds (and one warmblood that identities as a tb) racing each other 🤣 Queensland Off The Track #qottacknowledgedretrainer #offthetrackthoroughbred
There might have been just that one time I had to take a horse’s temp, and clearly someone was paying attention 🤣🤣
Everything takes 10x times longer with a toddler. Yep, it’s 6:30am and already needing a second set of clothes after playing in the water trough 🤦♀️
Practising our turns and straightness. Sounds easy enough, but there’s a lot to think about. Contact, half halt, inside leg to outside rein, bend, impulsion, rhythm, straightness, diagonals, looking ahead, straight hips and shoulders, moving through the turn.
Charlotte (Clarity GNZ X Ludendorf) having her second ever ride. Not second ride out of the round yard, but actually second ride. Might have been feeling ambitious but she clearly has a good brain 😃
Breaking the stereotype - alot of the off the track thoroughbreds make the BEST lesson horses. We love our OTT TBs ❤️ In this group lesson we don’t just have one OTT, but FOUR of them. Kind, patient, willing partners that help develop our rider’s skills. We are so grateful for these wonderful horses. Our smallest and youngest rider just happens to also be on the tallest. Two of these horses are currently going through Queensland Off The Track’s retraining program and the other two have been long time family members here at Flinton Park. Then there’s Maize. She’s just round. And yellow. #qottacknowledgedretrainer #flintonparkequestrian #offthetrackthoroughbred
Fast and Fancy class - what a load of fun. Fastest time wins keeping all the rails up. Some awesome costumes out there today. Must watch with sound (sorry Alanna 🤣).
