Derwent Silver Tuppence

Tuppence is a 14.1hh grey mare. Her claim to fame is her floating extended movement. Now she's 23 you don't see it so much, but it's there in her progeny. Also in her progeny is her bold but placid temperament. As a younger horse she was very successful in sporting events and her Arab x Australian Stock Horse breeding gave her stamina and endurance.

Tuppence has produced a beautiful foal to Tracey and Peter John's horse this season - Aloha Red Domino, who has recently started endurance and is doing very well at the novice level.

Derwent Spinifex (born 14 October 2001, 14.3hh)


Spinny now belongs to my friend Kim at Splitters Creek. She's 14.3hh and the daughter of Tuppence and a very talented (now deceased) quarter horse stallion, Vandy Moon. Kim does a lot of pleasure riding on Spinny. Last April Kim and Spinny went on the week long Rileys Ride - part of The Man from Snowy River Festival in the High Country. This ride really showed Spinny's stamina, versatility and sound temperament. I couldn't have asked for a better home for Spin than Kim has provided - she is a loved part of their family.

Derwent Joseph Jirri-jirri (Reg part-bred Morgan no 294, born 23 November 2004, 14.2½ hh)

Joseph the Wonder Horse is a very special horse. Joseph is the son of Karenza Apollo, Jo and Rick Hayes' wonderful Morgan stallion whose progeny are succeeding in many disciplines. Joseph is a very reliable horse under saddle and would compete well in show hunter classes. At the moment our family friend Cassie is riding Joseph.

Derwent Yirribin (Reg part-bred  born 3 September 2006)

Ibby is growing into a stunning filly who is bold and trainable. Like her full brother Joseph (above)
Ibby is the daughter of Karenza Apollo, Jo and Rick Hayes' wonderful Morgan stallion, whose progeny are succeeding in many disciplines. At her first show last October Ibby gained third place in an open breed class for all ages.
