Millie was a surprise package today! what a win in the Open HIH!
It’s always a big unknown getting babies out for the first time, so all in all I really couldn’t have asked for more, the girls behaved so well, and even though Saffy struggled a bit with concentration at the second event, she still behaved very well. I am very happy with my MPH Radical Love kids!
Southern Spectacular & Victorian Paint State Show 2024
Southern Spectacular 2024 got underway on the 4th of December and carried over to the 5th, it was a double judge show and we were lucky enough to have an American judge to cast an eye over our horses.
Our show team consisted of 2yo home bred paint bred filly “Sacred Love” and Deb Camerons 2yo old Paint filly who has been with me for starting under saddle, “Barpassers treasure”.
Both fillies were shown in the Versatility 2yo classes, consisting of; Halter, Lungeline, trail & Hunter In Hand. Both girls behaved beautifully even with the trying weather conditions.

Victorian State Paint show followed on days 6th & 7th of December. With the heat and humidity continuing to kick on, it was starting to really zap our energy and patience, however we carried on with the girls trying their best!
Once again we competed in the Versatility classes, with varying results, Sacred Love offering up some beautiful work, unfortunately she struggled with her consistency and placed accordingly, Barpassers treasure stayed a little more consistent and at the end of the show came home with Runner Up High Point 2yo, congratulations to her owners.
