Ancova Lainey Rain is doing very well with her new family:
Just thought I would let you know that Lainey went to her first outing last week. She behaved amazingly considering all the horses and things going on. She jumped two rounds. Sam took her to showjumping camp in the holidays - they had awesome time, we are bringing her on slowly and quietly - much to ponies disgust - she thinks she can jump the moon!! Sam popped her over a 90cm jump at the end of camp - she cleared it by miles! Sam's instructor loved her and said she has amazing scope and technique - said she will most likely go Grand Prix. We love her so much, she was measured today at 13.3hh, the vet said she will make 14 or 14.1 no problems at all, we are so glad we did not sell her, Sam has her sights on going to HOY with her in the next few years as she is able to stay on ponies for the next four seasons. Will keep you posted on her progress. |

| I just thought
you would like an update on how Anika is doing; Isn't it funny
how things go, from wanting to sell her earlier on, to now having
people contact me wanting to buy her, and I'm not at all interested
in parting with her. I took some nice photos of her a couple
of weeks ago and thought you might like an update.
Her calm and level headedness impresses
everyone that has anything to do with her, there are not many
people that come into contact with her that have not remarked
on her temperament and how lovely she is.
I am sending her off to get started in Feb
2010 and have a friend (as my time does not permit) who will
ride her. My friend also loves to show, so I have my fingers
quietly crossed that she may take her out and about. Will
keep you posted!

We bought
our first Haflinger cross ( Florentine ) from Ancova Farm early
09. She is an exceptional mare with a beautiful calm nature
and has exceeded our expectations in her training. Well done
Ancova for breeding such wonderful ponies.

I just wanted to say hi, and let you
know how much I am enjoying having a foal to play with. Amber
Lace is just wonderful.

The girls are so enjoying Lainey.
Our older one has finally found enjoyment in horses once again.
Lainey was so good for the farrier, she had a trim with no
problems at all. She is filling out rather fast! I have had
so many comments about her and have passed on your details
to several people.

Millie had
a colt early in the morning. I had a little trouble getting
her to stand still for him to feed (she kept walking in circles
trying to lick him!) but all is good now and he is strong and
healthy. I absolutely love him! Thanks so much.
Kind regards,
Sarah
