    Hi there,
    My name is Alex and was just wondering if you could help me. I am looking for a horse. i’m from a farm and have a palomino pony (outgrown and cancer so retired) a draft cross (also retired) and my lovely tb mare who is in foal and no longer suitable for riding due to a funny hock. so i need a horse lol im now living in invercargill just heading out of town. i have a lot of grazing available. i was wanting just a hack with intentions of getting into endurance and the occasional trek. im unsure if you can help me but just thought id try :) . im looking for a quiet safe sane horse around 15hh and under 15. i am a confident rider and open to anything. i dont have a lot of money but i have been saving for one for a while now. if you had something id love to hear from you. my number is 0272053610. Thank you for your time,
    Alex.

    FOR SALE: Stunning Clydie X English Riding Pony Gelding. 5 years old, dark bay, blaze & 2 white back fetlocks. (Sire is Clydie X Stallion approx 16hh – now Gelded, Dam is Riding pony x Lone Arrow Mare approx 12.2hh)
    Approx 14.3hh (haven’t measured him yet). I backed/broke him in 2 weeks before his first cavalcade last year (2009) and he didn’t put a foot wrong the whole trip. Was ridden lightly after that then turned out. Brought back into work about 6 weeks prior to 2010 Cavalcade and was a dream, up front, at back, in middle – just cruises! Ridden in halter most of 2010 Cavalcade. Born & Bred on hill country. Rivers, tracks, hills no problem. Very friendly chap, always first up to gate.
    Would make top show hunter, hunter, pony club mount etc, moves well. Phone 021-390-169 for further details.

    Hi there,
    We are after horses and carriage for our wedding in Oct 2010 at Lake Hawea. I would like to be dropped off at the ceremony in it and then taken from the ceremony. We are looking for someone local. If you know of anyone can you please email me – annasteiner06@gmail.com Any carriages considered would just need photos before we decide. Thanks so much.

  6. Lost: last seen at the Wanaka Rodeo grounds – Stu Moore’s Ben Ohau paddock. Looks like a small black plastic bucket, handles strapped together with plastic bag inside. This is my horses’ medical/grooming kit in a big plastic bag inside two plastic trugs. If anyone has picked this up I would dearly love to get it back! Cheers Alice (P.S. Stu this does NOT warrant dick of the day for the first day on next year’s Cavalcade….)


    1. A Big Thank You to David & Annabel Williamson of Hong Kong who kindly located my missing buckets!
