DSE Team on Tour in Adelaide
We knew we had a great team around us but competing in Adelaide at the CCI 4* showed us just how much support, love and positive energy we have, both at home and in Adelaide. Which makes for much more fun when you can enjoy the journey and success together!!!

Depths of winter = an autumn wrap up & THANKS to our DSE Team
Well we are starting to become much more acclimatised to winter now. Chanel (my website manager & designer) has been asking me to write a blog for a good couple of months now. It’s a cold, muddy and rainy day outside so I thought it was a perfect time to write this one in wrapped up in front of the heater! 😉

End of the Year!!!
So far this season I have had two stars in my team… DSE Sunset Pass (aka Gary/Gazza) winning the Beyond the Barriers Overall title for 2016. In the process he scaled and cleared 1.50m, which is no mean feat for a lot of horses, let alone one less than a year off the track!!! Needless to say I was very proud of his performance and what an awesome way to showcase the versatility of the NZ thoroughbred – go Gina and Nicky!
Beginning of the Spring Season!
DSE Tangolooma (Bones) made it back to an event YAHHHHHHHH 😉
Kelley Barrington, our amazing vet who has spent 20 months, scanning/flexing/stressing and probably has many more years ahead of this, I can’t thank her enough. Bones has also had Platinum Performance in his diet every day, and I’m sure that has helped with the healing process!

DSE “HALL OF FAME” – David Goodin
There are many people that touch our lives, though few that leave an in-print forever…
David Goodin is a well-known Show Jumping personality. In our opinion he is not only a great horseman, rider, coach, mentor, horse breeder and producer, but more importantly to us he is an exceptional human.
