Mac enjoying his first hack on Chocolate.

As you can see, a tired stallion and a happy chap! Mac's riding has improved so much we thought we would give him a treat, and he loved riding him.

Potential lady friend?

This mare arrived to overwinter here, Chocx was very taken with her, what do you reckon? I bet they would have a beautiful foal.

One of my favourite pics!

Chocx and Caroline at Mount Ballan, he looks as if he's jumping with his eyes shut, she with hers wide open... you can see why we need to use a stud guard!

equine Fair arena

No wonder the stallions got spooked, not only was the arena small and crowded by people and stands, but the sound system stuck out into the arena all round at the horse's eye levels, making some leap violently sideways when their music started. By the second day our stallion ignored most of it and performed as usual.

William 22/10/2007

William just 12 days ago, looking absolutely fine..
Now he has a raging infection through his body.
Please send any vibes, prayers what have you to him, he doesn't deserve to die after the fight he has put up to live.

Jez gets it right!

She is so laid back it is hard, but she is starting to understand what's wanted, she will end up well over 16 hh and looks very promising. (and no, CCJ won't get her paws on this horse, it's his...)
