Declan has started to behave a lot better now that he’s allowed us to handle him more, and he’s a star at leading now. Steve’s demonstrating how to lead and Declan is being really well behaved, very please with his behaviour today he was really good, when being taken to his new field.

Well we’ve finally turned the boys out for the summer. From the left the uncle 2 year old Why At with his nephews, brothers 2 year old Declan and then 3 year old Chance.

OK so spend a week away only to return to find Solo is still running around, convinced now he’s an eventer in the making, hes so bold and quite fast running around, just wait until I add the yearlings to the field in the next few weeks. It’ll be interesting to see what he makes of them.

The grey around his eyes makes his eyes really stand out. Pity he’s going to be grey as he’s a very handsome bay at the moment.

He’ll be looking for a new home in 5 months. Any interest welcome……

Sire:- Why Me

Dam Sire: Don Primero

OK so Aunt Dyna and Grandmother Divina aren’t impressed…..

Looks like he’s already faster than his mum, I think this chap may make a good eventer!!

The reaction upon adding his Grandmother and aunt into the field.

Destiny (Tina) to her friends now 3 years old looks like she should make 16.2hh by Daddy Cool, out of a Fürstenreich mare (Torpenhow Dyna Mo). Tina is just about ready to start competing after the weather improves I expect she’ll go out.

Torpenhow Declan being branded

Torpenhow Declan being branded at the Oldenburg Grading.

Declan achieved a premium at his grading and the poor sole was also awarded a brand (designer label) to go with it. He’s now all set for his weaning this weekend.

Please see our location on the map.

Welcome to Torpenhow Warmblood Stud, nice to see you found us.

We are a small select warmblood stud based in the North West of England.  Each year we breed 2 – 3 foals from the best European bloodlines. This year we expect one foal by Furst Romancier (Dressage lines) out of a Don Primero mare and one by Barca (Show Jumping lines).

We currently have a selection of British Bred warmblood horses for sale (though they are registered with a mix of  breed Societies, including Oldenburgh, Bavarian, Hannovarian and Anglo European Studbooks).  So if your looking to buy a horse why not call us to see if we have anything suitable first.

This year we will hopefully have two foals which we will be offering for sale, the first of which is due in May to a show jumping stallion, the second is due early June to the dressage stallion Furst Romancier.
