GO FOR GOLD SALE - NOVEMBER 11th 2015

Just fourweeks left - and really excited about this year's catalogue! Lots of lovely horses!
UPDATED NEWS 2015.

Another year has passed - and I have been very amiss at keeping this updated.

IT HAS BEEN A GOOD ONE FOR OUR FORMER HORSES!

ARCTIC SOUL (Gemma Tattersall) did us very proud when he was named as one of the twelve British representatives at the European Championships at Blair Castle - and he was one of just three home within the time.

Nicky Roncoroni's duo of STONEDGE and WATTS BURN continued to shine at the top levels. The former  flew the flag when the fiiling a place in the British Nations Cup teams, and was placed third individually at Ballindenisk. At the time of writing Watts Burn travels to Pau - we wish him th best of luck.

ALSO at PAU is Jenny Brannigan's great campaigner CAMBALDA - so lots of good wishes to them as well.

The youngr boys have also been making an impact.
 TEMPLEMARTIN FLIGHT   won the CIC* at Millstreet on his debut appearance, while MULLAGHMEEN was placed fourth in his first CIC* at Ballindenisk.

At BURGHLEY - our former MONBEG MEDLAR looked great when he was placed third in the five-year-old championships.

2014 KICKS OFF IN GREAT STYLE

2014 started in great style when Nicky Roncoroni and Stonedge were chosen to represent the UK in the Nations Cup at Ballindenisk. The least experienced of the squad, Stonedge jumped a brilliant cross-country clear and the team finished up in the winning position.

                                                       **********

 A week later, Nicky rode another of our ex horses, this time Watts Burn into second place in his first advanced class - a great achievement.
Crowning a great weekend for Parkyn horses, Marcus Reid piloted Majestic Imp to win the intermediate at Weston Park.
                                                       ***********

Looking forward to watching Arctic Soul make his debut performance at Badminton with Gemma Tattersall, and also Cambalda (Jennie Brannigan) compete in Rolex CCI**** in Kentucky.
