    First foal has arrived.

    Thanks everyone. I’m glad he has cheered you up. DabDab I like his mum too. She is going to be my next dressage horse once Murray has been weaned.

    First foal has arrived.

    Something to cheer you up in this miserable weather. My first foal of the season has arrived. He is bred to have the movement for dressage and also to have a super trainable temperament. His show name is Stolen Black and his stable name is Murray, named after his mum’s love of mints. :) You can...

    2016 Foals Due

    11 days is taking the biscuit. Are you allowed to feed mares curry?

    2016 Foals Due

    Thankyou. She might be the second filly of 2016 though as my first one was a filly too. That one is a ginger ninja! Bred to event and spends all her time galloping and leaping and boinging. She's so cute. It helps that she's really cuddly too...

    2016 Foals Due

    My second foal has arrived, a bay filly by Uthopia out of a Rubinstein-line mare from a wonderful motherline that has produced 17 graded stallions and GP producers. I'm so excited by this one, she moves as if she is on springs! https://www.facebook.com/Stolensilversportshorses/...

    Dressage Stallions - any advice?

    Several of those you have in your list are sharp or have questionable soundness. I won't say more detail. A couple you may want to consider are Flammengold, a UK based stallion by Florestan who has competed to inter I and sired several GP horses and graded stallions including the national inter...

    2016 Foals Due

    Thankyou. She's my first second-generation homebred and I was so anxious about how she would be. It was a big relief when she arrived safely and Dizzy turned into a doting mum. She's so happy!

    should i put my mare in foal?

    She sounds like her breeding suggests she would be. QuickStar produces sharp, hot and talented horses. Deciding whether to breed her or not is, for me, all about her motherline. Does she come from a good mare and a good line of mares? If she does, then yes, breed from her. If she doesn't then...

    2016 Foals Due

    Sorry to hear your problems with getting cctv working cc. I hate technology when it doesn't work. There never seems to be an easy solution. Fingers crossed your new bit of kit will work for you. I've got 3 foals due this year. The first one arrived on Easter Monday, a chestnut filly. She is...

    New horse vetted today - possible sarcoid??

    The paper I read on it tried it on hundreds of sarcoids of different varieties and there was an overall 93% cure rate. The biggest factor seemed to be size of the sarcoid at first treatment, smaller is better. It's as effective as Liverpool cream, possibly better, it doesn't hurt your horse when...

    New horse vetted today - possible sarcoid??

    I've had more experience than I'd like with sarcoids and have had 100% success at getting rid of them so if this horse is perfect in every other way I'd go ahead and buy. However I wouldn't let the vet laser the sarcoid off. Instead I'd go on the Internet and buy some bloodroot cream. It costs...

    First foal of the year has arrived.

    Thankyou everyone for your lovely comments. Persiflage is an underrated stallion and Biddesden a bit of a hidden diamond of a stud. We have some super stallions and breeders in this country. This one is going to stay chestnut. You can tell by the colour of the skin round their eyes when they...
