We were lucky enough to be able to buy Red at weaning from his breeder Roweena Provan, having always admired his sire. He has not disappointed, with his terrific bone and huge movement he has had an excellent in-hand career and since licenced, has produced 2 lovely filly foals in 2007 and 2 super colts in 2008.
He has had many wins under saddle this year including the Kingsford final and qualifying for Olympia he is also jumping novice WHP.

Dam: Waterloo Christine |

39" Stallion 2005

Clive was bred on the islands, and due to one of the wettest stormiest winters they have had for years, couldn't get him off until the following May, by which time us in the softy south, were in the middle of one of the hottest heatwaves we have had for years. Poor boy - he had such a thick coat and was really suffering so all we could do was clip him - quick.
He has only been shown lightly and had a couple of outings each year, winning on all occasions and gaining Junior Champion twice at the Royal Berkshire and Res Junior Champion at the Autumn Shetland Show and also Reserve Champion Coloured at NPS. He has two lovely fillies from his first crop.

38" colt 2007

Spock is DV's 1/2 brother although the mares are reasonably closely related. They are like 2 peas out of a pod and almost inseperable. We think Spock will end up slightly bigger than DV, he is a real character and always into mischief, like loading himself into the lorry when you aren't looking! Although Spock has only been lightly shown up until this year, he has had some excellent results including 1st 3 year old at the International Breed show, 1st Suffolk County and 1st and Junior Champion East Anglian Natives.

Lady J has done extremely well in-hand showing, she has been Champion at East Anglian Natives, NPS Summer Championships, Reserve Supreme Hadleigh, M&M Champion Woodbridge and many, many more. She can also go very nicely under saddle - when she feels like it! She had a super skewbald filly to Clive this year.

39" Colt 2006

The first foal of our return to breeding, DV had a rough arrival, complications during pregnancy and a rush to Newmarket saw him being born at a The Middleton Stud on the Hamilton road in Newmarket along with a lot of very posh Thoroughbred babies, but guess who got all the visitors!
Christened DV (Darth Vader) by the girls on the stud, he is by Hose Voyage and this year he has had a fantastic time at the shows with 8 x 1st including winning the 1,2,3 year old class at the Royal Norfolk, the youngstock class at Royal Windsor and 3 Reserve Championships. He has now passed his stallion inspection and is on covering duties this year.
