Well .......VERY EXCITING NEWS  for us at QNZH, as the legendry Mark Todd has offered to ride "Quincey" for us.  Polly Stockton his  rider  of 4 years is " in the family way " and will not be competing this season . Polly did a splendid  job producing  "Quincey" to CCI** level and  has given him  a good solid baseline  for the future.  We bred Quincey, his sire is "Grasshopper" our resident stallion, out of a TB mare by Brilliant Invader ( renowned NZ TB bloodlines  for jumpers ).

Mark has just moved to a fabulous new yard,  Headley Stud new Newbury, UK.  He has a super team of horses for this season with another new addition of "NZB Campino",  recently purchased from Germany.  Marks tells us  he is very TB looking and ticks all the boxes,  and is Novice level.  He had his first start on "Campino" in weekend with 22 dressage and double clear jumping.

The very talented "NZB Landvision", has been sidelined recently due to small  paddock injury but is back on track and will be out and about soon.

Mark has also just purhased a cute cottage up the road from the yard and is looking forward to a stint of interior decorating !!!

" Moscato " , a lovely grey TB  eventing mare  was purchased via QNZH  and flown out to USA on 1st March.  She has joined  2* eventer "Hendrix"  at Mike Huber's GOLD CHIP STABLES  in  Bartonville, Texas.

Alfonso Gomez,  proud  new owner/rider  of  both NZ horses,  decided to take the opportunity to get " Moscato" in foal to our  resident stallion "Grasshopper"  prior to leaving .  She has arrived safetly   in Texas 4  months pregnant.
