Hello All
I hope everyone has survived the winter months, spring is in the air, flowers are blooming, the days are longer and the weather is heating up. To us horse people it means stallions and mares are hormonal, weed spraying needs to be done, there is so much horse hair around the place you can’t keep up with the broom and antihistamine will be your best friend. Don’t get me wrong – I love this time of year but I’m sure we can all relate to this somehow.
Over here in WA we have started our busiest time of the showing year. At the end of August we had the Gosnells Masters (a Grand National qualifier) which was a great success for me as one of my new horses “Jackkman” won the Hunter Hack and I got R/up Champion Rider. A week earlier “Jackkman” won at his first show at the Pinjarra Championship day. Hugh, as we call him around the stable, is proving to be a Dark Horse what you might say.
Each month we are progressing with the property. The new arena is now floodlit, the shell of 7 stables are now complete, and the last of the day yards are close to completion. We are planning a opening in the near future. I have a close friend who owns a winery who has agreed to sponsor the opening and we have stallion displays, trade stands and band all ready awaiting the opening date. I will keep you all informed on the date.
In the coming month in WA we have the Perth Royal, EWA HOTY and the start of all our Agricultural Shows around the state. I wish you all the best for the coming spring with your horse activities. Make sure if you have any questions pleases feel free to contact me through Nature Vet or my e-mail (richardr.75@hotmail.com) and I will be sure to answer your queries or questions.
Regards
Richard
