We're eagerly waiting for the arrival of Sapphire's foal, as our grey mare is due in February next year. Sapphire is now entering the final stage of her pregnancy, and excitement is building around the farm.

It's always bittersweet to say goodbye to horses we've raised from foals, finding them loving homes is one of the best ways we can support this magnificent rare breed and help ensure their future.

Join us in bidding a fond farewell to this beauty.
