When you send a horse to Destiny Park for spelling you can guarantee its nutritional and mental health is looked after.
With now over 30 years experience owning and looking after thoroughbreds I’m confident in saying I know how to look after the breed.
Ollie has been here for his 6week spell and heads back into work tomorrow. Pic taken today 🤩
He has kept his weight and condition well through the coldest period and it’s something we pride ourselves on with all of the horses here.
I don’t believe that a thoroughbred should fall away if they are supported nutritionally and don’t have underlying health issues. (It happens)
We have built a lovely regular clientele of trainers that keeps us full at all times 🙏
October will open up a regular space for our race horse clients.

🔬 Health & Nutrition: The Lusitano Gut Microbiome

A comparative study examined the faecal microbiota of 189 healthy horses from six sport horse breeds, kept under similar conditions.

Among the breeds studied, the Purebred Lusitano showed the lowest bacterial diversity, while Hanoverian horses showed the highest.

The study also identified differences in microbial composition between several breeds and found 27 bacterial genera whose abundance varied significantly between breeds. Interestingly, the microbial communities of Lusitano and Anglo-Arabian horses showed greater temporal stability during the study period.

🧬 What does this research tell us?

• Equine gut microbiota varies between breeds.
• Lusitanos showed particularly low bacterial diversity within this study population.
• Diet, management and environmental conditions remain important factors when interpreting equine microbiome research.
• These findings highlight the need for further research into the relationship between breed, microbiota, nutrition and health.

An intriguing scientific finding. Not a clinical verdict.

Poppet has been missing my attention these last couple of weeks with my focus on a big project 💫 but nothing has changed, still loving my touch and affection and trusting me.

September we will start the backing stage and hopefully be ready to go trail riding with Reina and I 🤩

Linda and I have added some new clinics to this years schedule!

We are so proud of the unique and meaningful work we are sharing with the horse community, and the incredible transformations we are seeing in peoples lives, and their relationships with their horses, after spending time with us.

The deep level of understanding students are gaining is helping them have a higher level of connection with their horses, and also rolls into relationships at home, and even at work!

This happens because we are not sharing a set of techniques with you, we are sharing wisdom of self, wisdom of intuition, along with the science behind it. We help you return to the calm state of human being rather than human doing, thinking, overthinking, stressing,

Have you ever wondered why at times it feels like you and your horse are just coming from 2 completely different places?

Why you feel unmotivated at times despite your love of horses?

Why your horse goes between calm (almost too calm!) to explosive with seemingly no reason?

Why you feel that way sometimes too?

Why you overthink constantly ?

Our body responds to stressful situations by engaging protective mechanisms, and so does our horses. These protections can stay in place for years until we can convince ourselves, or our horses, that it is safe and the protections are no longer needed. We may know this in our brain, but it is our body that needs to FEEL not our brain that needs to THINK.

These are just a few of the topics that Linda and I work on at these collaborations, in order to create safety in you, and your horse. Once safety is felt, our horses truly will try anything for us.

Below are our upcoming collaborations, if you would like us to hold you a spot in any of them, or you have any questions please hit reply to this email

If you would like to host us, please reach out and we can let you know availability - we are happy to travel interstate.

Miss Poppet has finally arrived after leaving her previous home 5 days ago.
I’m Super impressed that she instantly went to the water trough before saying hi to Sox and then went and ate her hay, great start 🙏
Sox didn’t even look up, even when she came over to ask politely if she could share his dinner lol.
Her paddock mate of course will be my invaluable and rock solid Sox until she settles in.
I’m really looking forward to seeing this girl shine under my care 💞💫
