MAY 2014

Taking a break from booking flights to the Australian Futurity. Colin is leaving a week before to go mustering with Barry Ladd on a Queensland cattle station. Thank you Tony & Toni Rogers for this exciting opportunity. Thank you to Barry Ladd for your quote of the year -"never sell or geld Peptos Do Rock". thank you to Grant Mackie after judging PDR in his first run for the season at the North Island Finals "that is the best run I have seen all year" yes we re pretty proud of PDR. Brought back into work after running with mares, went into the herd 6 times and never unplaced. Spanner Man had a great show season and has added to his list of achievements. Our futurity horse All Fyred Up (Nolan) was a litttle disappointing but that is the cutting game. It would of been awesome for the memory of our friend Nolan Fyers to win the Futurity with this horse but it was not to be.  As I write this Colin is "breaking in" his 2016 Futurity prospect by Kings Playboy out of Duracks Reflection (Spanner Mans full sister) and  weaning our first PDR filly "Pirate". Watch this space for what happens. Show horses are turned out for the winter months, see you all in the spring.
 oops forgot to add that we have purchased in partnership with James Hazeldine PDR's first foal from Harold & Maria Morrissey. Bar Bees Pearl is a palomino filly out of Hollywood Bar Bee and a prospect for the 2016 Futurity.
