2003
- Rumble G has left us for
his new home with the Davies family. If he was loved here is simply
adored by his new owners already and he will be out in show ring from
next year with plenty avid fans (including us)!
- We have backed Magic Gold
and he going very well under saddle. Such an easy character to work
with, no if's but's or otherwise.
- We have added three new
mares to our brood mare band. A graded black trakehner mare (Arsenal
x Donauwind), her black daughter by Weltjunge (Weltmeyer x Matcho AA)
and a graded and double branded head stud book danish warmblood mare
by May Sherif.
October
2003
- The year has simply
flown by so far and it is weaning time again already...the wet and cold
weather now should slow things down a little soon though!
September
2003
- Joanne and Gary have kindly
sent us some new pictures of Goshka Donnerflo - six months after he
moved to his new home with them. We think he's looking fabulous - one
to watch:

- Due to a freak
accident in the field we have lost our beautiful yearling colt "Bart".
May he continue to play and gallop in the fields above. We have already
so many special memories and we had such high hopes for him.
- Congratulations Charlotte
on your purchase of Goshka Gambler!
- Happy 11th Birthday Blake!
- A very BIG
thank you to all our 2003 stud season customers. We eagerly await news
of your babies in 2004...

- Waldemar G wins his (dressage)
class at the Best of British foal show at Addington and is one of only
4 foals (over 100 presented) to attain a 9 out of 10 for movement:

- Congratulations
Great Britain on achieving bronze medal position at the European Dressage
Championships and qualifying for the Olympics at Athens in 2004!!! We
were lucky enough to attend what was a thoroughly exciting, inspiring
and well organised event. So inspiring that most spectators seemed to
be going home with wistful expressions and VERY long new schooling whips...!
- Our first two progeny by
Goshka Ringo are presented at the UK KWPN grading show and do very well
indeed. First premium and 3rd overall foal awarded to Waldemar G (Ringo
x Levantos I). Wannabe G (Ringo x Wellington) winner of the filly class
and fifth foal overall.
- In keeping with family tradition
Dean decided he wanted to ride at his birthday party - a mechanical
bull...
July 2003
- I know, I know, it's the
stud season, can't have it every way, we're bound to be busy!!! We're
not complaining, simply looking forward again to the day when dinner
happens before 22:00hrs! Until then the best kind of reminder why. We
hope you like it. We've called it "spoons":

June 2003
- Ton Ami and Tina continue
to go from strength to strength with solid performances at "Tony's"
favourite venue (Reeseheath). Two red ribbons too!

attending too.

February
2003
- Congratulations
Rachael on your purchase of Karino!
- The other day job has decided
Kate needs formal recognition of her skills (cheek) so more IS courses
and exams than you can shake a stick at Q1 2003. Joy.
- But we are
off to sunnier climes for a week before the stud season gets underway
in earnest... YIPPPPPPPEEEEEE!
- The snow drops are through,
the horses in top form and life is good!
January

- A Happy New
Year to one and all from Greenacre Stud! It's that time of year again
where last year's foals are yearlings and our first 2003 foal is due
in only a few weeks time...
- Predictably, water supply
and all human extremities frozen solid.
