Bills….. I really like this guy, and he’s lovely to ride. You could trot him all day, it’s so smooth and lovely.

Now Bills is a forward lad, but sensible. And we throughly tested out him and Chelsea here.

Watch from the beginning to the end as he works out her abilities and starts changing to what she needs.

Bills is a tank, a little cheeky, but super lovable giant fluffy teddy bear. There’s something about him I truely adore and I enjoy riding him too. He doesn’t feel like an unco standy to ride.

Chelsea is an early novice, her riding is coming along well, and we like throwing her on to test out a horses brain and ability to adapt to someone under us in our level of riding. She still has unbalanced moments, and still has things to learn, but he really impressed us with his brains to understand her and really started to slow up for her. Even when she’d ask for canter, he just trotted bigger and said ā€œnope lady you ain’t readyā€. Very thoughtful.

Bills is built like a tank.
Bills doesn’t pace.
Bills has started canter and it is lovely.
Bills is fluffy as anything.
Bills has a good head on him but has a little cheek to him.
Bills can lean on the bit if he has reason too.

Bills has a little more work to go. But is showing amazing progress!

Advertising some transport up to Mildura way from SA. Possibly around 11-15th June at this stage. With myself and O’Neil...

Advertising some transport up to Mildura way from SA. Possibly around 11-15th June at this stage. With myself and O’Neills Transport.

We’ve got some lovely standies coming up so great chance to get one home too!

Unsure if taking 3HAL or 4HAL, but have 2-3 bays up and 3/4 home.

If your looking for transport, or a horse, flick us a message to have a chat. We have a couple horses not advertised yet, so let us know what you’re looking for and we’ll see if we can help.

We do not have any horses suited to beginners. They are all green Standardbreds sold on temperaments with miles to come.

Again, please message the page šŸ“šŸ’—

Raven šŸ¦ā€ā¬›šŸ¦ā€ā¬›
Approx 15.3hh rising 13yo

Incredibly well tempered, such a good boy.

He’s not lazy but he’s not taking off on you either. Walk trot and can canter but like them all will need more work on staying in the canter.

First outing today, ridden along the highway, popped over jumps, ridden with friends.

Couldn’t be faulted, but standing still for long periods will get better in time. He likes following the others however is manageable to take away with a little encouragement.

Raven has shown to be calm and easygoing, arena work can’t be faulted, a lovely ride with no nasties or vices.

Easy to catch.
Barefoot.
Up to date with dentist.
Rugged and paddocked with 6-8 others. Not bossy.

As video, floats extremely well, even in the dark.

Absolutely no nasties, but is still working out ridden life, so a rider with a bit of knowledge or help around would be ideal. (No beginners, he goes forward when you ask).

Fine for unbalanced moments, doesn’t get easily offended.

Has only shown a bit of pace after breaking canter.

More videos to come, and there’s a couple on the page already.

This guy would suit most things, pleasure, trails etc. however not the worlds next Olympic jumper lol.

We aren’t sure what else to throw at him!
Currently ridden 3 days a week.

Raven - my god what a bloody saint.

Play with volume, truck used its Jake brakes and boy it was loud, Raven didn’t even flinch!!!!!

After passing his outing today with flying colours, we are about to advertise him!

Suitable for novice and above, quiet easygoing lad but is still green. Very genuine boy.

I’ve deleted the post of Raven having his teeth done and foot cleaned out because the internet warriors weren’t happy, and missed the fact it was an inside joke and that I was pointing out how quiet he is and happy to be fussed and loved over.

Also proofs in the pudding he’s up to date with feet and teeth šŸ™„šŸ™„šŸ™„
