It's been a little while, but here are some (boring) photos of my guys at the moment. Will try to get some ridden over the next few days. As an update; Roley was incredibly sick before Christmas- to the point where the people around him weren't sure he'd pull through ( i, thankfully, wasn't told quite how bad he was as was just about to go into uni exams)- he had some nasty virus but he's fine now (thank you, God) Maya is doing soooo well, while I'm back this time around, I really want to get her going. She's really smart and feels really big. I think she'll be really great. She's trying really hard and even in the last week has come on leaps and bounds- we even cantered today hahahaha! (she's not your typical ex-racer!) Anyway, sorry, they are pretty boring. Moo's pretty hard to get a good picture of- she's REALLY pretty, but not a great model! Rolls pushing everyone along Really wish other horse wasn't in the background! LOL, sticking her tongue out

Hi Miranda, How lovely to hear from you again. I'm not on here as much as I used to be 'cos I'm away a lot in the Winter . So lovely to see Rolls again, what a fright him being ill must have been I 'm so glad he is ok now, and he certainly looks it. I don't know Maya ---------so what's her story ? and how is the show jumping going.? J xxx ps fab photos by the way

oh SpecialSparkle!! helloo!!!!!!!!! You MUST drop by in Aus some time! I rescued Maya from the meat man not long after Jack passed away. She's Tb by Danzero but was a bleeder, so they bred a couple of foals from her, one did/is doing really well, the other died So she was left in a field for years and then taken to the sales...where the only bid on her was said meat man....so I stuck my hand up. She's needed a LOT of TLC, but she's a beautiful girl under her defensive exterior. Thank you so much, 2 bays & a grey. Yep, I'm in sunny, hot Australia :-p ! I moved here from Surrey 5 years ago with family

Ha Ha Miranda, it's a bit far for me to Aus. 8 hours on a plane is enough for me . Interesting about Maya, my first thought from those pics was that she's another Jack. I just loved to see pics of him ps just seen about the SJ WELL DONE THAT GIRL ! keep it up ;D
