One of the main highlights of the show season is the Appaloosa Horses Club UK National show. A two-day event that caters for every Appaloosa enthusiast. This year we took our two GAP 5 horses, Redheart Pascalius and DFR Patahas Redheart. I participated with both horses in the Appaloosa Horse Club classes while Crystal participated both horses in […]
A day showing at Netley Hall in Shrewsbury, Shropshire with Redheart Pascalius. We look for a reason, we search for answers but sometimes we fail to find either? Today was one of those days, first class was a challenge, Evee had her own problem to deal with and she forgot to tell me about it! […]
Even in the equine world! No room for a third-party! Evan and Katkin are very fond of each other, Reus can only eavesdrop from a distance! Bless him…

Knowing the gender of a foal before it is born will help us manage several different aspects of our breeding program. In particular, we would like two non-characteristic (NC negative for the LP (Leopard Complex gene)) fillies to continue our breeding programme. NC fillies will be perfect for our recent imported Stallion DFR Patahas Redheart […]
There is nothing I need to add here…. Except, Redheart Pascalius and I were proud to be part of the British Appaloosa Society‘s 40th Anniversary. A clear run on the M1 heading Oop North 5th in a tough class of 13 “Best Conditioned” 3rd in the Most Colourful “Other” 2nd in “two & three-year-old fillies” Proud to […]
