Good Morning

brilliant start to the week
We’ve had a brilliant start to the week! We started on Monday with 260 Owners Group Members for a yard visit. PEARL WARRIOR received lots of attention from his fans. The morning went really well and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. The star of...
No winners this weekend
No winners to write about this weekend but some fantastic photographs from Dennis Penny to promote! Pictured is The Farming Army’s STAGE POWER with Conor at Perth on Saturday. He has (literally) a few hurdles to cross before he’ll get his friend in front...
