11yo 14.2hh Stationbred Mare.

Has been used as a trekking horse for most of her life.
Heaps of experience and milage on hill country, through bush, on the beach, mustering and over farmland.
She has a great walk , good in a big busy group -at the front or back. She can be alittle looky hacking out alone but gets a lot of confidence from her rider.

She has just started some basic schooling and jumping. And is although green is proving to have a super jump, scopey, careful, brave and tried very hard. I can see, with abit of time she could do very well out competing.

Rimmie has no dirt whatsoever but possibly had a rough break in and can be alittle worried at times. Needs a kind confident rider. Once she trusts you she’ll be away.
Does not have to be ridden regularly. You can leave her for a month and she’ll be the same as when you last rode her.

Great to tie, float, truck, very respectful on the ground with lovely manners. Can be abit worried with the farrier -but again, as long as you take her quietly she’s fine .
Awesome feet, never needed shoes .
Up to date with worming and dentist.
Good confirmation, no scars and straight movement.
Not mareish at all. Pretty low maintenance type, good doer and easy to have around.

She really is a sweetheart and deserves the best of homes.

Couple of piccys of Holly Taylor’s 4yo Billy. Holly and I started Billy last year as a 3yo and now again he came back for abit more schooling.
I’m very grateful for clients who allow there youngsters time to grow and mature.
Mentally and physically last year Billy was not upto much more than abit of light hacking around but after having a winter break he has come in very enthusiastic and ready for some more challenging sessions.
Excited to see what him and Holly get upto in the future.

I already have x2 Horsemanship Clinics booked for 2024, this time in Whangarei and Kerikeri ☀️ To book please email [email protected] (Whangarei - 18th January 2024) and [email protected] (Kerikeri - 25th January).

With a bit more time on my hands, and Kelly Wilson's horses finishing the bulk of their education this summer (I've been working x4 of her horses for her while she recovers), I am opening up space for two schoolers to join my team from the 1st of February to mid March.

In my schooling, I work to create the ultimate, safe companion by encorperating ground work, obstacles, body control work, hacking, ba****ck riding, adventures through the bush and x-country schooling into their training routines. I focus on building better understanding in the flatwork, encouraging relaxation and thoughtfulness no matter the environment and developing a solid education to help them thrive no matter what level or discipline they are destined for.

These spaces are ideally suitable for green horses, even ones who have come off the breaker, rather than horses with behavioural issues, as in my experience most behavioural issues end up being phsyical issues which generally require a bit more of my time and resources as they usually need to have vet checks and go through a thorough rehab program.

To find out more, please email [email protected].

Absolute Gentleman
Introducing Ted
By Radway Talk of the Town (English riding pony) out of an eventing TB mare.
Born 5/12/2017
15.1 1/2hh
Done PC, ribbon days, show cross, beach etc.
Great barefoot-fantastic feet and clean legs, very well put together with good confirmation.
Easy to drench, float and truck.

This boy is a super tidy clean jumper.
Carries himself in a very nice natural outline- you pretty much sit there and he does the work.

Ted would excell anywhere as he really is a quality little horse with a very chill sensible brain.
Show Hunter, showing as a park hack successfully, dressage or eventing.
Ted is not a hot horse and abit more woah that go .

He hacks out on a long rein through puddles, past cows, opens gates, canters in an open paddock on a long rein.

We would love to find this special boy a loving knowledgeable home.
Please call or text me on 0274562720 for more info

Fantastic movement.

Has been a pleasure to start under saddle- with a very kind, willing to please nature.

Hacked out around Woodhill forest and has now begun basic flat schooling which she is taking to very well.

Grew up in northland running in a large herd and had a very good basic ground foundation when I brought her unbroken.

Has since been living at a busy yard in Auckland.

Well accustomed to stable life, horses coming and going etc

Leads , ties up, good for the farrier, worming, floating etc.

15.2hh 7yo Bay Mare
Very special genuine young mare
Very clean, clever, careful jumper.
Soft and straight foward on the flat
Due to no fault of her own she was started late and has only just come into full work recently.
Has had extensive hacking in foresty and over farmland.
XC schooling at woodhill last week she jumped everything boldly and bravely.
Sensible to take out, ties, floats, good to shoe and handle .
She is still a young horse and needs an experienced kind rider to bring the best out of her but has a lovely trainable brain and plenty of ability to go far.
