Something a little bit different this weekend.

We were asked to attend Tractor Fest 2026 at Newby Hall. Tractor Fest is now one of the biggest of its kind in Europe. Cloghan Iona did a tremendous job representing the 'first tractor' over both days of the weekend.

This beautiful 4yo Clydesdale mare is in foal for 2027 to our own Thorpe Hill Perfection.

Accompanied by our PR team, Reggie (9yo) and Ernie (6yo), doing the meet and greet at the event with Iona, we spoke to a large crowd and met some very interesting characters.

We even managed to get time to do a show photo shoot.

Our arrivals from this week!

The Disney name theme continues, following our previous foals, Buck, Mickey and Pluto, this time the boys picked 'Toy Story'....
... Introducing 'Woody' (named by Reggie) and 'Jessie' (named by Ernie).

Woody is a beautiful Clydesdale c**t sired by Thorpe Hill Perfection and Jessie is a beautiful filly sired by Schumann's Kostolany.

Both pictures are taken within hours of them being born.

If you're looking for a good night's sleep...

First of all, we don't recommend breeding horses (or any animal for that matter) if you want good sleep.

What we do recommend however, is a nice glass of mares colostrum right before bed

Something a bit different this Saturday afternoon from our beautiful TB/ISH mare, 'Calypso'.

Introducing "Mickey".

Pictured today at 13 days old, born at 9pm on Easter Sunday. This beautiful c**t is sired by 'Costa' (Schumann's Kostolany), making this her first shire sired foal, after a run of Clyde sired babies.

Calypso has been re covered with Costa on foal heat and has been checked for ovulation. A cross we're very happy with!

Mickey will be available at weaning! Please message if you're interested in Mickey or even the whole outfit.

03/04/2026

Introducing "Pluto".

This week we welcomed this beautiful Clydesdale c**t foal, sired by Thorpe Hill Perfection. We look forward to seeing the future for this beautiful little chap.

⭐Dusty⭐

This 18hh black rising 5yo shire gelding will make a great hack/family horse! Great with kids, in traffic and over poles and jumps. A great all-round horse.

Please message us if you are interested in Dusty.
