    Maesmynach Breeding

    @ justabob I visited them about 2 years ago......had a fantastic day and they are the most friendly welcoming people ever! I have emailed them to advise them of Adloniant's passing and my thirst for information on the 'siblings'.

    Maesmynach Breeding

    Wowsers!! She was only 14.2h and when I contacted Eric and Nicola they were surprised as her sire was Maesmynach Cmryo coch so expected her to be bigger but she rode like a 16hh very sassy and sophisticated, loved her job and really was one in a million. I am unsure of where to look tbh so just...

    Maesmynach Breeding

    Good Evening All, Feeling slightly tragic about losing my Maesmynach mare 2 weeks ago I have been researching her breeding lines. I have discovered that she has some full siblings and I was hoping that someone might know someone that maybe know/knew these horses? It is purely curiosity and...

    When to Hunt??

    Hiya, I have almost finished my first season hunting and I started with a few autumn meets. I also did a few fun rides last summer. He was ridden in a fench link hanging cheek no problem on fun rides but totally ripped my arms out hunting. We moved onto a mullen mouth pelham and eventually...

    refining my young hunter

    Ah yes this was us! Thank you again for your help I really appreciate it, and yes we got back ok. I walked him down to the road and remounted on the back of a ladies landrover whilst she got him to stand! He hacked back brilliantly to the box! :) He is unscathed from the wire thankfully and I...

    refining my young hunter

    I am looking for a little advice from the experienced folk on here please? I have a fab horse who has been absolutely amazing out on the hunting field (our first season - ever!) He is brave and bold and has just started to stand quietly at the meet and relax into it a little. He is a 5 year...

    i cant stop what so ever out hunting?

    Maybe a change of bit would help, something to stop him pulling his head down, I popped a waterford in to stop my boy grabbing hold of it, but now ride him in a pelham with 2 reins and a curb. I think you need to work on the 'bolting' problem so lots of transitions whilst out hacking get him...

    i cant stop what so ever out hunting?

    What is he like in 'real' life when not hunting? is he well schooled and is he responsive out hacking? other than not stop what else does he do? does he throw his head up or pull down? you may need to change his bit? or add a flash. I always ride with a neck strap which is thinish leather so...

    How experienced should a young horse be before going hunting?

    I went for the first time this season on a horse that I brought back in June. He is a 5 year old, He had done a bit of everything prior to me owning him but hadn't done much of any specific thing. I went with some friends that had sensible horses that could babysit me but my boy actually proved...

    difference between cubbing and hunting ?

    I am not sure if you have to plait her, hopefully someone else will help with that. If in doubt I would plait. If you are over 18 I think you now have to wear black or navy coats but check with your secretary. I went Autumn hunting 3 times and my first hunt on wednesday, all I can say is that it...

    Will we be welcome?

    Although I think you can feel a little awkward when you first arrive you will soon find someone to talk to and most hunts recognise a new face and will stop to chat to introduce themselves. All I can say is just go for it, I did this season and I am so pleased that I did - It is amazing! Have fun :)
