A change of scenery for some of the team yesterday, with a trip out to Pleasant View!

📸 L–R: Still Bangon, Fair Share, and Good Spot enjoying the outing. We can understand why the horses love their time up here so much, because the riders do too - good for the body and mind!

We’ve been a little quiet on the socials lately, but it’s been all go behind the scenes. Our team has now relocated to Tuhikaramea, giving us access to some incredible facilities. The horses are absolutely loving the variety in their training and are thriving in the new environment.

While we’re still settling into the new setup, be rest assured it’s very much business as usual. A huge thank you to all our clients for your continued support through the transition—we truly appreciate it.

We’ll be making more of an effort to keep the updates coming now that things are starting to fall into place. Stay tuned!
