Miss B has been very busy with three horses in full work now. Her training with Wilson and Flame is progressing steadily, both are jumping calmly and cleanly and are such honest horses its a pleasure to watch them work. The difference in Shiloh is incredible. hey have even started …
It was such a lovely almost spring day today we decided to take the dogs and Flame for a swim down in the creek paddock. It was Flame’s first experience down there and he had an absolute ball splashing in the water. Everything about this horse is just so exuberant …
Miss B and Flame have been getting to know each other the last couple of weeks and have started their jumping training. It has been great to see the improvement in both of them already. Starting to see some nice muscle development as well which is good 🙂 It is …
After a few minutes warming up in the house paddock, Miss B took Flame out into the top paddock with the other horses. Given Flames reputation for exuberant behaviour I was really rather concerned about that decision, but Flame didn’t put a hoof wrong and worked incredibly well for her …

These two just get better and better. Wilson is working so beautifully and soft, he is completely relaxed and such a willing partner who tries his heart out, they just make an amazing team 🙂 We are looking forward to adding another Thoroughbred to the herd soon who Miss B …
While we are still actively looking for another horse to educate as a showjumper for Miss B, she and Wilson very confidently passed the 1.10m mark today 🙂
These two are progressing very impressively, the one benefit of not having any rain, and therefore no soggy, slippery clay paddocks, is that they can keep training until we do get rain. Miss B has done such an incredible job with Wilson, taking him from the most basic education to …
The days and night are cooling but it is clear with no rain in sight. The paddocks are bare and dusty and the water tanks are near on empty. Hopefully season break will happen soon.
