Castle Stud

Hi Guys,

Sorry for the recent update on my website, i do wonder how many people actually look at or follow my website with social media like facebook and instagram these days so do feel free to leave a comment to show your following and love, kind regards, Sam

So over the last few months we have mainly been busy making improvements to our new base as weve been here just over a month now and are nearly at where we would like, we have hardcored gateways and tracks and built are very own small xcountry course, we have updated our school lights to more powerful bulbs.

Weve had several lovely horses in for training and sale, also have had notification that our lovely previous castle stud horses are going extremely well for new owners and riders, the lovely moet is now in Italy competing successfully at 1.45 and heading towards grand prix's and zinny is competing well at 1.30 level and Hifa is now in Germany competing well.

Weve also just hosted a great halloween show for all my clients and locals, it was great fun and great feedback and looking forward to a Christmas show!

**Sorry for the lack of recent updates since Christmas, we have been so busy i havent had chance to update my website!**

We have had some beautiful young horses in for backing for clients, two have come in for backing and have been completed within 6weeks, i will attach some pictures below of the gorgous customers:  

This is Sherry and Pie, two very well bred, extremely talented rising 4yos that both came in

pretty wild when they arrived and pie was very nervous when he arrived and absolutely petrified of a bridle and he come to gain trust in me and over the weeks he progressed from strenght to strenght and left fully backed and happy:

As winter settles in we are very busy with more work and shorter days! All full liveries and youngsters are tucked up in their stables now, so lots of mucking out.

Lots of lessons to fit in with pupils all working very hard and horses improving!

All the youngsters are working lovely and 4yo dior ( kannan x balou du rouet) is now back from her holiday and happy to be back in ridden work and had a jump the other day and felt super!

The gorgeous 4yo charlie went home yesterday after coming to us to be backed and he went away a different horse full of confidence and loves jumping bless him, will miss him!

Also have a new 3yo turning up next weekend for backing due to being postponed to me injuring myself :-(

Yayy our gorgeous bright new filler have arrived and pictured here with alex christening them!

Holly is back home safe and sound after a lovely few weeks training with Samantha Castle I would just like to say a huge thank you for all the hard work and time you have put into Holly and that I can really see such an amazing improvement thanks again xxx

Had such an amazing weekend with lovely people. Thank you everybody for your help and support! Very pleased with the lunge pen so far and you boys worked so hard! New arena markers look lovely and then had a gorgeous gallop on dior across the stubble and she really opened up for the first time, great bit of fitness for her and had a fantastic BBQ last night! Now busy getting ready for Addingtons young horse final show next wee.. Lots of lessons and all pupils working super and doing their homework ;-) Just perfect!

Super productive day, all lessons taught, knew the lovely rex wouldn't be around for long hes now sold subject to vet after not even a wk of being here and Harley was very good and had his first walk and trot in the school. Early night ready for show tomorrow
