WOW what a week! Here is the run-down and a huge list of thank yous to the amazing people in our lives, especially to those that own and love progeny either bred by us or sired by our boys - thank you for including us in your success! Pics from all events to follow... I think I have these in right order: 1. Huge congratulations to Jerri Cody, Em and their beautiful boy Prince aka Raven Lodge Charmed, sired by Raven Lodge Born Brave, for their results at the NSW Arabian State Titles. Em and Prince took home Reserve Champion Show Hunter Galloway with a fantastic workout, 2nd Novice Rider, 3rd in Open Rider, and 4th in Partbred Arabian Galloway - woohoo! 2. Then on Wednesday we welcomed our first Blau baby for the season, foaling at the very decent hour of 6.30pm our beautiful mare Raven Lodge Born To Shine foaled her third bub by Blau Commander Cohen a stunning Buckskin Tobiano Filly. This little girl is a full sibling to our 2013 gelding we have kept, we absolutely love this cross and will be looking for an extra special home for this girl. 3. Thank you Philippa from HFR Performance Horses for your support and professionalism - Philippa is the fabulous AI tech behind the scenes and a big part of our team in 2014 :) 4.

From NSW to Victoria and now across to Perth... the woohoos continue at the Perth Royal with Heidi Kemp and her beautiful palomino tobiano Lolly aka Krystelle Park Made You Look, sired by Windsong Celtic Clansman.

The gentle giant Mars, pally gelding clydie x sired by Blau Commander Cohen, bred, owned and very much loved by Deb Chapman and the whole family, attended his first ever clinic; Allan Collett horsemanship clinic at Mt Wallace Equestrian Centre. All reports are he was fabulous and took everything in his stride, and had to make up for missed naps by dozing at every moment possible :) 7.
