I frequent Whiteblazes, almost everyday!

I have 4 at the moment, Prince, Standardbred TB, expacer, he is on loan til next June whilst his mum gets on with having a baby and getting wed.  He isnt my type at all but is no problem to look after and he has given my other 3 a bit of sometihng to think about in the herd.

Elma, she is a 16.2 Cleveland Bay, had a hard life as a hunter hirling then was a nanny for her previous owners youngsters, she is now with us and we are trying to build her muscle up to get her into work.  As she has been a law unto herself for about 4 years she can have attitude and when she doesnt want to work she lets you know, but with the walking out for physio she is learning that actually, maybe she isnt the boss!

Isaac, (Absolom Isaiah) 3yo piebald cob, had him since he was 6 months old and am hoping to get him started with longreining later this year once his teeth have settled a bit.

Then there is Odinn, my Pride and Joy, 14.2 Dales Type, came from Appleby.  Ride and Drive although he hadnt done much riding when I got him (I discovered!)  He was lame from March til beginning of June, not sure what happened but think he had taken a HUGE knock, he's back in work now and am desperatley trying to get him fit for driving so I can enjoy the summer from my trap.  Although today is an off day, its pouring down and blowing a gale.

Some Pics for you.

Wow a great selection everyone. I have an arab, a Connemara X Sele Francais, 2 Icelandics, Ollie a little Shetland who is a ball of muscle and can be driven for a couple of hours and barely gets warmed up and a Baudet de Poutou a 15:2 hh MASSIVE donkey (google it) and they all drive chalk and cheese the lot!

a 16.2tbx shire mare who has recently foaled to an imported 15.2 ish (i haven't measured him since he came over as a yearling)french trotter, i also own. An imported  Trait breton stallion 16hh; a 16.3 CB who drives, 17.3 sports horse eventer, 15.2 cob R&D - in foal, bigget horse I owned was an 18.2 ID showjumper, sired by king of diamonds and a 16.2hh ex champion racing trotter, some pics of some of them  ;D

it won't let me put too many pics on so i've popped on a coulpe - the foal was only a few hours old in the photo so still very wobbly legged  ::) ;D

thought i'd share with a photo of sydneys legs! we are still amazed that his mum managed to carry and deliver without problems a foal with such long legs he must have been curled up like a ball of string!  :D

Sydney and his mum are gorgeous.  I would love a Shire.  Someone comes to our driving club with theirs, and  I was lucky enough to have a ride on him ......struggled to get on, and worse getting off, so high up.  Made my 16hh ID mare look small even :D  Do you do much driving?  We have some driving ponies among our gang

Very nice!  Always a demand for carriages for weddings. We have a friend with Haflingers, and he does weddings with a team of 4 over in Tameside. Impressive looking set up he has.  We do weddings and parties etc. for friends. No worries getting matched pairs as our Dales are black and similar sized.  Do mainly driving shows with our exercise carriage and cone driving. OH wants to get into cross country ....stopped driving myself due to a couple of nasty carriage accidents, but will go on as groom, and tootle about driving our pony on the lanes. 

Value my life nowadays, and do risk assesments before agreeing to do anything remotely dangerous :)
