Foals/Weanlings

We believe that the early months of a foal's life are critical to prepare it for the best outcome and longevity as a riding horse. Our foals are well handled from birth, are taught to lead from day one and have their feet done regularly. All our foals are people-oriented; people are part of their daily life from the start and co-operating with people is normal for them. People visiting us for the first time almost always comment on how friendly the youngsters are!

They are all wormed regularly, well fed and vaccinated so we know that their competition careers won’t be interrupted or shortened as a result of inadequate early care. This is especially important in order to avoid long term health problems such as anaemia, colic or irreparable damage to the intestinal tract. Foals which are not wormed appropriately can experience poor development and growth, impaired performance capability and lowered resistance to disease even carrying through to later life. It pays to know where you are buying your foal from!

Aurum Pepper

Black Filly - 4 January 2012

Sire: Aurum Rivière d'Or

Dam: Poppy (McCartney X Black Pampas)

Suitable: Eventing, Dressage

Estimated mature height: 16hh

Notes: All Black, all beautiful!

We get lots of fillies at Aurum, it must be the atmosphere! This one is arguably the perfect modern eventer, being 3/4 thoroughbred and 1/4 warmblood with strong movement and jumping lines. Both parents have shown winning performance ability and we believe Pepper will not be any different with an excellent temperament, great movement and a lovely uphill build.
