NJ Quarterhorse and Paint Horse Stud is situated on a sprawling 63
acre |
|
Horse Ranch in the Tarlton area in Gauteng, South Africa. |
|
The ranch boasts acres of
land sewn with eragrostis grasses and is |
|
surrounded by three game farms where all sorts of African antelope roam. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
The barns feature eight mare boxes and four stallion boxes.
Foaling boxes
|
|
have their own separate paddocks en-suite. There is a 20 metre
diameter
|
|
round pen, as well as a specially designed 60 X 40 metre reining
arena |
|
installed with a special sand/clay compound especially suited to
reining, |
|
with spacious wooden paddocks all linked by neat pathways and
shaded |
|
by indigenous trees. |
|
|
|
There are no cattle on the ranch which
is dedicated completely to the
|
|
horses, which currently boasts registered American Quarter horse
mares
|
|
and two registered colts. The stud grows its own eragrostis and tef
hay
|
|
fields and presently does not run its own stallions. |
|
|
|
|
|
Regular Western Riding clinics are conducted at the facility
with overseas
|
|
trainers running the clinics. The renowned German
Western Rider, Haiko |
|
Keuchel is a recurring visitor, amongst others. There is barn
and paddock |
|
accommodation for horses visiting these clinics and the horses
are truly |
|
pampered here. |
