Newsletter of 9th June 2004

The following newsletter was e-mailed to our circulation list on 9th June 2004.

Welcome to the summer update from Sariah Arabians.

As we mentioned in an earlier email, our focus this year is shifting from that of a public riding school to a private livery and training centre. We are taking this decision as a result of a number of factors, not least of all the very large increases in public liability insurance which many public riding centres throughout the country have had to absorb this year.

We are taking this opportunity to specialise with those of our clients who love the Arabian horse by making some of our horses available on a loan basis. These horses will be kept at our yard, but will be restricted to a few, special people. The horses available through our leasing scheme are:

Easter Psalm
Sariah's Capriole (7/8 Arabian)
Sariah's Shalom (Anglo Arabian)
Sariah's Solitaire
Sariah's Sapphire
Top Hat (Arabian x Welsh)
Fenhouse Shades of Blue (Lapis) (available for non ridden sponsorship or stud only -Anglo Arabian).

More information on each of the horses is available on our web site. There will be a maximum of four people per horse only and a Livery Agreement will be made available covering the details of the Loan Arrangement. Some of these horses could also be made available for sale to the right home. If you are interested in further details on loaning out one or more of the horses listed, then please contact Sheila Morgan for details of the scheme.

We are hoping this will be of interest to our regular clients as it ensures these lovely horses can continue to remain at our yard and be ridden by our friends.

News of our horses
Sariah's Sasha has recently been starting to work under saddle and is taking to her task well. We would like to show her under saddle, and are looking for a show rider who will be able to work with her, bring her on, and ride her in ridden Arabian classes. If you are interested in this, then please get in touch with Sheila.

Sonoma has been purchased by her regular rider, Chris Shaw and we wish them both well together. Marigold is continuing to recover from her field injury and cannot wait to resume her duties, shortly.

Other news
For those interested, there is an exhibition of paintings of the Arab horse, entitled: The Arab Horse - an Equine work of Art at the Mathaf Gallery, 24 Motcomb Street, London SW1X 8JU. The exhibition features work from 19th and contemporary artists and runs from 14 June to 2 July.
Further details are available at www.mathafgallery.com . The exhibition is meant to complement The Festival of the Arab Horse which will be held at Lingfield Racecourse, Surrey 12/13 June.

Best Wishes to all of you.

Sariah Arabians
