Ima Shiney Gun
Smokey is a Brumby who was passively trapped as a rising 2 year old in the Long Plain region of the Kosciuszko National Park in NSW. He is a stunning blue roan, so changes colour every few weeks! He is now 15 years old and is great under saddle, as well as continuing his liberty and trick training, which he is very enthusiastic about! Smokey has attended Equitana in 2013, 2022 and 2024, and dose a great job showing the public what Brumbies are all about! He has worked cattle, loves trail rides and competes in Extreme Cowboy Racing as well as performing with Georgia at Liberty and enjoys showing off his tricks! Smokey is 'Mr Reliable' and even after 2 years out of work while Georgia was overseas and then pregnant he was perfectly behaved for his first ride back! He is excellent for beginner riders of all ages.
Kabang, paddock name Kacey, is a registered Quarter Horse gelding, bred and trained for cutting and other cow horse events. Purchased by Georgia in April 2026, together they have already competed with success at the Ranch Horse Victorian State Championships, placing in the cattle and dry events in the Green Horse division. Kacey is very cowy and we are excited for our future with him not only for competition success but also for improving our own skills as riders by learning more with him at clinics.
VBA Curious George- RIP January 2026.
VBA Smokey
George was a Brumby gelding who was caught from the wild as a 10 year old stallion, from the Bogong High Plains in Victoria. He was trained by Georgia, and was laid to rest at 24 years old. George was only 13.3hh so while not tall he was solid and could happily carry adults as well as children. He was an excellent beginners horse and confidence builder for nervous riders as he was slow and steady and would only go as fast as you really make him!
George was retired from riding in 2024 due to showing some relapse in neurological symptoms as he also contracted the mosquito transmitted virus that our other old horse Jack had. Whilst less affected initialy, George suffered some vision issues and other symptoms and we decided to retire him for safety reasons. Sadly at the start of 2026 he relapsed significantly and had to be laid to rest. We will always miss him and are so thankful for the years we did have with him.
Ima Shiney Gun, or Poke as she is known at home, is a Paint mare bred and trained for Reining and Cow Horse events. She is Jimmy's mare and he has been competing with success with her in the Ranch Horse shows. Georgia borrowed her for the 2026 Australia's Greatest Horsewoman event, where they placed 4th overall in the Rookie division which was a wonderful achievement together competing in Reining, Cutting, Obstacle Challenge and Cow Horse box drive box classes.

Soldier
Soldier is a Quarter Horse gelding who we were given in 2018 as a minimally handled and recently gelded 5 year old. Soldier was initially very scared of people and took some time to fully trust. He has since become a wonderful riding horse and Georgia and Soldier have competed in many events together, with highlights being the 2024 Australia's Greatest Horsewoman event placing 9th overall in the Rookie division, and then competing at the Ranch Horse Association of Australia National Championships in 2025 in Scone, NSW. Soldier also has done demonstrations with Georgia at Equitana 2024 and The Man From Snowy River Bush Festival 2026.
Soldier is transitioning to hopefully becoming an additional lesson horse for more confident riders.
We have some amazing personal horses who all offer different qualities and training opportunities.
We currently only have 1 horse in work who is suitable for clients to have lessons on which is Smokey. This includes beginner children and adults, as well as more advanced riders wanting to learn more technical skills, go on a trail ride or work on obstacles. Contact us to discuss further if lessons on our horses are of interest to you. We may have a taller horse available for lesson also pending his transition with new riders.
Below are some photos and profiles of our horses.
