E.M.T. HORSES


Here are a few of the horses we are currently working with.

 

 

Page Update: 8th July 2008



At the Gallery you can view further pictures of the horses in work.



"Bombie" ("Light the Fuse" - Electric - Celtic Cone)


Horse competing in dressage
 

Bombie is an ex-national hunt racehorse.  His racing career spanned 8 years before suffering one injury too many which ended his racing days.

Despite bone chips being removed from both knees, a severed tendon and a broken bone at the back of his knee, Bombie kept bouncing back, but a back injury proved just too much for him.

"Oscar" ("Whinny Tou" - Whinny Jackson - Wolfgang)

 

You wouldn't meet a kinder natured horse than Oscar. As a younger horse he lost his way and unfortunately he was a little misunderstood; sadly he found his way into the grass field.

Two years down the line our paths crossed and Oscar found his way to us.  He is now under a new owner and his dressage training has resumed.

Oscar is now attending training clinics and had his first affiliated outing for 3 years in February.


"Peanut" ("West Life" - Florencio I - Florestan I)

This fabulous gelding is currently being backed and then will follow a career in dressage.   With his illustrious breeding we are very excited about his future.

Typical of his breed line, Peanut is quite a sharp boy so we are having to take things slowly as he frightens himself.

Peanut is developing into a superb specimen but he is still very immature so we must all be very patient.

"Thomas" ("Crown Affaere" - Its Without Doubt - Welton Louis)

With his Ben Faerie and Welton breed lines Thomas looks every inch the event horse. He has plenty of substance but is nicely short coupled making him perfect for the job.

 

 

 

"Rupert" ("Really Rupert" - Rubin Star - Rubenstein)

What a striking looking gelding; there'sn doubting his parentage!

A little on the sharp side, Rupert has an active mind and he is now ready to start ground training in preparation for backing later on.

 

 

 

 

"Cappi" ("Capulet" - Templetrine)

This gelding has proven to be quite challenging. He is generally very switched-on and the description of "sharp" is extremely accurate for him! This coupled with a nervousness has meant progress has been by the millimetre rather than the centimetre.

We are confident that this horse has a future in the competition arena.

He moves beautifully so there are several options as to which road to go down with him.

 


"Rea"

This mare is an ex-racehorse - and presents everything that is typical of these horses.

 


"Dylan"

Dylan arrived on 12th April. Initial assessment has highlighted several "sore" areas which require the attention of our chiropractor, Georgina Sim. Dylan has been quite "stressy" in his ridden behaviour so that and being uncomfortable in his body will not only account for the jumping difficulties he and his owner are having but also, despite his owner's best efforts, the ability to keep weight on Dylan.

We will now set to work building up Dylan's muscles and improving his flatwork so that he finds jumping altogether more comfortable and, most importantly, fun!

"Gracie" ("Distant Friend" - Vettori - Machiavellian)

Gracie is a 2 y.o. filly. She is a solid, well-built girlie and upon seeing her you would be forgiven for mistaking her for a colt - especially as she has the attitude and behaviour of a colt to go along with her build.

Due to her size and manner Gracie is her for ground training so that she is more manageable for her owner.

 



"Prom" ("Bullard's Promised Money")

Prom is an event horse competing at both Novice and Intermediate level.

Although not coming to stay with us until August he currently comes for regular schooling sessions both on the flat and over fences.
