We apologise we have decided to remove Daphne from the Auction. We went to ride her today and she was naughty which is just not like her. We want to make sure the horses we are taking are really good so we don’t think she is ready to sell. We are going to continue to ride her and look at selling her at a later date when she is ready. However we have decided to take Jeffery to the Auction in her place, he is a super cool, easy going boy. He is the one we pull out of the paddock when the kids what to come for a ride with us. I’ll try and get some footage today to post some information tonight. He is an absolute ripper! 🦄

Scam warning.

Scammers have been creating fake profiles pretending to be us and they are commenting on our competition post replying to people who have entered saying they have won and to register their details following the link. They are fake profiles, it is a scam. Please do not follow the link and register your details. I have been blocking them and reporting them as quickly as I can.

The competition is legitimate and we will be announcing the winner Sunday. I will post a video announcing the winner and then I will contact the winner via PM- we will not be asking for any personal details and you will not need to register etc.

Thanks everyone and good luck 🎅🏼

EXPRESSION OF INTEREST!

We are considering selling our magnificent purebred Friesian stallions Spartacus and Renegade.

They are both 10 years old. Registered with KFPS.

We purchased them when they were 16 months old from Ebony Park. They are approximately 16hh.

For those who know us, these boys need no introduction. There isn’t much these handsome lads haven’t seen or done! From working in Melbourne doing Horse and Carriage tours, weddings, funerals, film and tv shows, theatre performances, parades, photography work, birthday parties. They have been ridden undersaddle commercially in parades, have been to the beach, trail rides in the bush/camping.

They are an absolute pleasure to ride and drive but do require a knowledgeable and capable home as they are both stallions.

We are open to selling them as a working pair or possibly separately.

Our Facebook and Instagram page is full of photos and videos of them from over the years please have a look through them. We have endless amounts of photos and videos.

POA - They are quality horses who have had years and years of training so they are not cheap and will not be sold to just anyone.
