Due to the ongoing devastating drought in our area, we currently have brood mares for sale in foal to our young stallion Animado Azul (pictured in December 2007 at 28 months old, demonstrating his incredibly laid back temperament and his trust in human company).

An outstanding first cross mare is available for sale. Animado Mandar (DOB 21/2/04) is out of a Warmblood cross mare by the lovely stallion, El Caballero Dejado. Animado Mandar (Mandy) illustrates the lovely nature of the Andalusian with a natural athleticism and freedom of movement.

The photo shows her as a youngster, 22 months old. Started under saddle, Mandy has not put a foot wrong in her training, delighting us with her willingness and trainability.

All our horses are handled and trained by Margaret Anderson, (Associate Diploma Horse Management and Diploma of Technical Teaching).

Margaret has many years of experience as a riding instructor and horse trainer.

To assist in the training of the horses and to delight visitors, Margaret has taught several of her horses’ tricks, such as bowing, counting, waving, nodding yes and no, and lying down.

Using principles handed down by her horse-wise parents, Margaret has incorporated many aspects of natural horsemanship into her training philosophy, as well as the wisdom of many of the talented Australian trainers, such as Steve Brady and Daryl Olney.

Horses trained by Margaret are taught to come when called, move their quarters away and turn to face their handler when in small spaces, move calmly from side to side when asked, load steadily onto and out of floats, and show respect for their handler at all times.

Using firm yet fair training methods, our horses develop confidence and calmness in their human companions and become reliable riding horses.

As a coach, Margaret’s focus is on the self-confidence of her clients and the development of an independent seat, believing this is a priority for the safety of the rider and the comfort and good welfare of their horse. (To help achieve this we conduct weekend vaulting sessions as often as our competitive schedule allows.)

From a dressage perspective, we follow classical principals and the German Dressage Scale, believing that dressage should be good for the horse as well as the rider. Without confidence in the rider and a calm, submissive attitude, a horse cannot learn what we want to teach them, and still be beautiful!

As a stud Principal Margaret believes in feeding horses naturally and using herbal remedies wherever possible.

We consider it good welfare for horses to be maintained in a condition suitable for an active lifestyle and not allowed to become overweight. Being overweight can be as bad for a horse as obesity is for humans!

And introducing Sophia Anderson

At just sixteen years of age, Sophie Anderson has made a good start on her competitive riding career.

After initially participating in dressage competitions to try and overcome her pony’s spooky behaviour, Sophie discovered a love for dressage and rapidly progressed with her pony from Grade 5 Pony Club, the lowest level, to Grade 1, the highest, in just over 3 years.

For the last 4 years, Sophie and her super little 12.1hh Welsh pony gelding, Dallu Royal Pageant, (AKA Prince) have competed at each of the PCAV State Dressage Championships with success.

In 2007, competing in EFA dressage competitions, Dallu Royal Pageant was named the Western Victorian Dressage Club’s Novice horse of the year and also won the club’s Elementary Championship at the Club’s Championship Show.

These awards were won competing against all other competitors, both adult riders and horse and pony competitors! Sophie was usually one of the youngest riders, if not the youngest, and needless to say, Prince was always the smallest horse/pony competing!

In 2006 Sophie commenced her ongoing involvement in the Equestrian Federation of Australia (EFA) Victoria Young Rider Dressage Development Squad.

Having outgrown Prince, (a long time ago many would say!), Sophie has started this year with a young 15.2hh thoroughbred, Bawtree and hopes to start competing the pure Spanish gelding Ridozana as well. Keep your eye on their results this year.

Sophie regularly rides ponies too small for Margaret to ride for training purposes as well as working with Margaret to ride and train the young horses on the stud.

Horse riding and vaulting is a great activity to pursue at almost any age provided you are in proper health to handle the rigors of being in the saddle.

Sometimes, the demands of modern life seem to require an endless supply of energy. It’s hard enough just trying to squeeze everything in, then finding the energy to actually do everything presents a whole other obstacle. Are *YOU* low on natural energy?

For years I dreaded the onset of spring and summer as the hay fever I suffered every year was so debilitating. For a person that loves to be outdoors like me, having Hay fever was like an annual prison sentence.

Having started with Herbalife in July 2006 and learning about the products, when spring came around that year I started taking N.R.G. and waited to see what would happen. I could not believe how easy it was! Not only did I feel symptom free most of the time, but when my system was challenged by grass blowing directly in my face, I only needed to take an extra NRG and within just a few minutes any symptoms, such as watery, itchy eyes and a runny nose were gone. No more sneezing, no more waking up tired after struggling to breath all night, no more feeling like I had the flu all the time.

This was a revelation to me! It was true! The Herbalife nutrition products could do what my friend Jodie Rowan said they would do! And the NRG worked faster and more effectively than the western medicines! And instead of worrying about how the hay fever medicine might adversely affect my system, I am able to relax in the knowledge the products are good for me and are making my immune system stronger.

After celebrating my 50th birthday in early 2008, I feel my body is getting younger. Whenever someone asks me, ‘How are you?” I reply with a genuine, ‘I feel great, I am really well, thank you!’
