Welcome to Red Maple Estates, a competition stable focused on the training of high quality sport horses for Show Jumping, Eventing and Dressage. While the estate mainly revolves around competition, we will breed our top horses that have retired from showing in order to get the next generation of wonderful athletes.
Our Horses:
Full Name: RME Cream Delight Barn Name: Delilah Breed: Swedish Warmblood Colour: Cremello Markings: None Height: 16hh Age: 7 years Gender: Mare Discipline: Show Jumping
Personality: Delilah is a sweet mare and also the horse that has lived at Red Maple Estates the longest. She is has a gorgeous Cremello coat that is always kept in impeccable condition, and she likes it that way. Delilah rarely rolls, and if she does, it is a clue that she may be sick. She adores a good grooming, and will stand perfectly while any dirt is removed from her coat. She has a lovely work ethic and will happily jump anything you put in front of her. As a 16hh horse, there isn't much that bothers her, except for ponies. There's something about little horses that doesn't quite sit right with Delilah. She has two responses when she spies a pony, run from it or bite it. The only thing that has ever been bitten by this mare is a child's pony that walked too close to her stall. Delilah is a bit strange that way, but she is still wonderful.
Show History:
Full Name: RME Golden Prince Barn Name: Prince Breed: Swedish Warmblood Colour: Palomino Markings: A sock on left fore leg Height: 16.2hh Age: 8 years Gender: Stallion Discipline: Eventing
Personality: Prince is the most competitive horse you could ever have the pleasure of meeting. He may seem sweet, but he has a game face and it definitely shows. Many riders have been forcefully dismounted as a result of this horse. He knows the cue for the beginning of a cross country run, and as soon as that cue is made, Prince shoots off, sometimes leaving his rider behind. He jumps at least ten centimetres higher than he needs to, which can be an issue for higher level eventing competitions. Prince is known for knocking the last few jumps as he simply does not have enough energy to make it over, after all the excess jumping. After a few years of work, however, Prince has now been conditioned where this issue isn't very prominent. Prince loves racing his paddock mates, and is always the winner. He loves galloping and playing 'games' with his rider. These games include avoiding being caught from the pasture and knocking over water buckets. Prince is playful and competitive, but he won't ever put a foot wrong.
Show History:
Full Name: RME Patent Trance Barn Name: Big T Breed: Swedish Warmblood Colour: Bay Markings: None Height: 17hh Age: 8 years Gender: Stallion Discipline: Dressage
Personality: Big T certainly lives up to his name. This big horse is bold, brace and proud. His pride can sometimes be his downfall, however, as his prancing often results in a loss of points in dressage competitions. When he can be kept under control though, this magnificent stallion performs perfectly. He is much more polite under saddle than on the ground. He has a bad habit of nipping his riders and does occasionally kick. He is quite the bully to other horses and has to be kept on his own. He can't even be floated with other horses, as he almost caused an accident with his attempts to bite his float partner. Big T has a temper, but if his trainer can work around it, then he makes a truly amazing competition horse.
