I hope everyone is keeping warm this winter and some ponies are enjoying a well earned break, I will be back in work come the end of August.

My book is still open for the 2025 - 2026 season for startings and schoolings. September and October are filling quickly, but availabilities are still open from November onwards.

For those wanting private lessons, I will be back up and running from the end of August onwards.

It was a fantastic weekend just been at 4 Peaks Arena. Thank you to Reining and Versatile Horse Association - NZ for having me host a cow horse clinic down in my home town Geraldine.
What an amazing group of horsewomen, you all really put the effort in and made some great improvements with your horses this weekend, it was a pleasure to help and watch the progress happen! 🐂

Thank you to those who captured some great shots, and a huge thank you to Jo for the hire of her cattle and fabulous facilities at 4 Peaks Arena and her horse Mr Flint. 💛

• Ashburton Dressage Championships today for our first ever go at dressage.

To say I’m proud almost feels like an understatement.. I am in awe of Ra and what he continues to teach and offer me. His kind, gentle, relaxed nature is so forgiving and he seems to put up with his rider making many mistakes as I to learn along the way with him. These past few months we have both been putting in the hard yards with our instructor Nicole Ostermeier, trying to teach this cowgirl how to turn her toes in and not out. 😅 We’re still getting there, but she has certainly helped me unlock some of Ra’s potential every session, so a huge thank you to her for helping us achieve what we did today.

A big thank you to Ra’s second owner/mum Catherine Sellin. This was once an idea in our head 5 years ago to play our hand into the dressage world when we found Ra’s sire Bloomfield Furst Love Song and now it’s finally become a reality to have produced one of his progeny ourselves and what a pleasure it’s been.

A very special thanks to Jo Morgan for being the amazing support you were for Ra and I in our first debut today, we couldn’t have done it without you.

LVPH FURST LOVE SHINING STAR came away with a 2nd placing today and only 0.4 points away from 1st with a score of 72.8 in the Non Registered Horse Preliminary 1A.

You are a true gem of a horse, with one of the biggest hearts I’ve come across in a while, someone will be spoilt to have you in their paddock one day. 💛

Lastly a special thanks to Ashburton Dressage for putting on a fabulous weekend and to all the behind the scenes helpers! 😊

⭐️Broodmare for sale ⭐️

Quarter Horse Mare
15.1hh
9yrs old
Colour : Dun

Pumpkin - Riarmas Sierra Rose.

Looking for a new home, Pumpkin is an absolute sweetheart and is passing that on through her progeny, so far she has three beautiful babies on the ground and another on the way, one is already under saddle and showing great potential as a western performance horse and another currently being started as we speak.

I started pumpkin and she was a superstar in every way, her movement is to die for with 3 lovely paces and her mind was always so willing under saddle.

She is currently in foal and will be available after this breeding season once her foal is weaned due to currently being out on lease.

For any questions or inquires please feel free to send me a message.

✨ LVPH FURST LOVE SHINING STAR ✨

Meet Ra (Warmblood x TB, four year old) on the team at LV Versatile Performance Horses, day two of being back in work and he has come in like a dream. Riding this gentle giant feels like floating on a cloud, with three exceptional paces and a calm temperament and friendly nature you can’t not adore him. 🫶🏼

Thank you to Jo for capturing these shots today at our wonderful home base 4 Peaks Arena, please excuse the western attire, clearly Ra got the memo and I didn’t. 🥴

Ra is on the look out for his new five ⭐️ home, he would be well suited towards - Dressage and/or Eventing.

Feel free to touch base with any questions on our lovely Ra. 😊
