There is always one in a crowd, meet WW Pope’s Hill 🤎🤎🤎
We love the idea that we can support, allow and give space when you have an itch. Better still we love the idea of exploring those feelings that there is something more, or something missing. Then sharing and working together to create flow and good movement.

The more we play with young DP Cadbury the more we see DP Jaspa, the big black gelding.
DNA suggests same Dam, DP Polly Waffle.
Same long forelock, compact and well balanced between shoulder and rump.
We can especially see it when we create some good movement and he looks more like a horse to be, rather than a scraggly growing teenager!

The immense journey one takes when meeting the idea of regenerative stock handling, with some young relatively unhandled horses, mixed with a home bred ready to start, and a couple that have been through a clinic, to bring about amazing learning opportunities.
There is nothing more special than a young man with incredible feel, halter a rising 3yr old for the first time, like it is any other day.
When that happens, we all know we are on the right path.
Thank you to those that joined us.
Thank you Steve Burke for pushing us into unknown, known territory 😊A few of us are a little tough, but we are unlocking and finding good movement, and the horses are very much appreciating the change in us 🙏
