What We Do
-
Both Joe and Jake have experience producing horses of all levels, from taking our string of talented youngsters to their first shows, to producing horses to Grand Prix level.
-
We run a successful breeding program from our stud in Montgomeryshire. We only breed from mares that we have competed ourselves, with good papers and using a range of proven stallions to guarantee quality. Between the ages of 3 and 4, our homebreds come to our main yard in Gloucester to be backed and begin their competitive careers.
-
Rowland, Ali and Joe are all qualified coaches. While they each have their own coaching style, all three are sympathetic and passionate about bringing out the best in any partnership. Coaching is available as an add-on to our full and part livery packages, or you can travel to our yard in Gloucester.
