I have one due in June out of a thoroughbred mare. Will post foally pics here when he/she arrives! Frank is lovely in person and my mare took first time despite failed attempts with 2 other stallions!

I bred my older mare 2 years ago it took 2 years to get her pregnant and when she finally took about half way through pregnancy she became very lame. She had never been lame before so vets suggested testing for cushings. Her levels were really high so had to be started on pergolide. I did a lot...

Louella stud, they are great!

I would go with KBIS I insured mine with them.I lost a yearling to colic last year, stud fee was 600 insured her for 3000 and they paid in full and sent a lovely sorry for your loss card!

Congrats! Very cute! I. Had a birthday foal 2 years ago on friday! I would of loved a chestnut filly but got a black colt!

I have a 2 yr old gelding by Wolkenderry. He is a real character, was everyones favourite foal at Twemlows and was so bold as soon as he came out. Ive taken him to a few comps and hes not bothered by anything and would rather investigate everything! Hes very cheeky and I cant wait to get started...

Helen Church at bassingfield riding stables near Gamston is great and don't think her lessons are too expensive, I had lessons with her when I was younger and she really improved my flatwork. Number is 0115 9816806

Velvets wish sports pony yearling by Wolkenderry out of Sweet velvet (riding pony mare)

I have sent my mare to bred twice, foal down once and weaned two foals with them. They also did a bit of handling/show prep with the one I didn't breed there. I have been very happy each time and if my mare who is there at the momment gets her act together and gets in foal I will send her to...

Hi I am insured with KBIS and I can't recommend them enough. My yearling filly had to be pts earlier this year due to colic. At the time the vet said if we didn't put her through surgery we wouldn't get any insurance. But she was too far gone and we didn't want to put her through it, so pts. She...

At the time I went into the arena Lynne said to me we were breaking for 5 minutes because the male evaluator was on the phone. Which I was fine with. Then he came back but without lynne and asked me to start which at the time I just got on with it because didnt want to cause a fuss. She finally...

I was also at Richmond today and was looking forwards to Lynne Crowden Judging my sport pony, However when I went into the ring she had gone for a 5 minute break so only was evaluated by one person. I thought this was bad seeing as the entry price is so high and the fact that it was only one...

I have a yearling by him out of my 14hh riding pony mare. Hes is such a character with the most beautiful head. Ive just taken him to the futurity so pics should be up soon on kevin sparrows website he's called velvets wish and was at Richmond. I think there are lots of his offspring...

I havnt read the autopsy report yet (cant bring myself to do it) but one of my friends is a vet student and was there for the post mortem and she said had a huge volvulus (were the gut twists around itself) and lot of the small intestine was already dead so surgery definitely wouldn't have been...

And a recent one just turned one
