Delayed post but we are SO proud of kaylin terblanche and Westland's Al Capony in their first sanesa. 2 thirds, 2 seconds, 2 firsts. Capone is a green pony getting some milage under a very capable jockey and we are thrilled with this pair!!!

All set up and ready for some cowboy dressage tomorrow! What's cowboy dressage? Come find out tomorrow at 10am! Participation slots still available. Contact Emma Weitzel if interested.

We are very excited to host the upcoming cowboy dressage clinic on 19 Nov! This is an exciting new discipline for English and western riders alike!

Weaning isn't so bad when you have pony friends. The combined age in this photo is just under 47! (Hint, one is 40, one is 6 and one is 7 months!)

We want to congratulate Cara du Plessis and Westland's Al Capony on a spectacular season hunting with Cape Hunt Club as well as their participation in the hunter trials with a beautiful clear round. Al Capony has gone from a Wynberg garage to becoming a super all rounder thanks to Cara's hard work and dedication. We are excited to see him debut in the showing ring shortly with a new child rider. Watch this space!

Q Frozen Red Velvet aka Velvet first time under saddle with trainer Cara du Plessis was as cool as a cucumber.

Western performance introduction day coming up! Perfect for anyone interested in learning more about the performance disciplines before the upcoming WCRC show season!

We've had a quiet winter prepping horses for the upcoming show season. I'd like to announce that all of our horses have their PADI1 by now and while they might not be able to showcase that particular skill in the reining and performance arenas, they are amped and ready for the new season of Western Cape Reining Club and National Reining Horse Association South Africa shows.

We are especially proud of Westland's Al Capony who has been hunting with the cape hunt this winter season and with his 12.2 hands of power and springy legs will be moving into show jumping, showing and dressage with his new child rider before we put him on the market to sell. Hats off to cara du plessis for producing him to this point.

I'd like to also give a special shout out to our amazing staff here at westland who have literally faced all elements this winter looking after our horses. Ishmael, Eric and Messiah are 💎 💎 💎

We have many exciting things coming up which will be announced very soon! Stay tuned and get excited guys! Show season is close!!!

The best photos I managed today, better ones coming, but we are SUPER proud of Westland's Al Capony for doing the opening hunt with Cape Hunt today! He loved every minute! This is going to be an incredible 1ST PONY for a very lucky kid!!

Shot in the dark here but is anyone looking for spelling for c**ts? It seems everyone had fillies this year!

We've got a 3 month old qh c**t and the land to spell him on but we are lacking 2 or 3 other c**ts to do it. This would be a herd environment, live out with shelter. Ours is going to be weaned in July so ideally this herd would be created around that time but that could be flexible. Let me know!

After many requests HERE IT IS! Our extreme trail class at March Madness has become something riders want to try! This is the opportunity. Non-show environment, work slowly through each obstacle with assistance and de-spook your horse! The obstacles are all 100% horse safe but definitely ask big questions. School each obstacle in your own time and then put it together to ride the course! It's going to be a great outing for riders and horses from every discipline!

Westland Cottage is available for rental from 1 June. 2 bed, 1 bath with massive, fully fenced garden space. Livery for a horse/horses is also available at a discounted rate for the tenant. Interested parties can contact Sarah on what's app 0721326036.

Western Cape Reining Club 2022/23 - Show 5 is POSTPONED until May 7 due to wet conditions! See you all the following Sunday!

Absolutely late post about March Madness. Our riders came out in FULL FORCE I'm most impressed with the reiners that amended their plans because of the going. It was just too wet to even try guys.

We were all in agreement not to run reining patterns for safety but our open and intermediate performance riderrs shined like the sun on Sunday!

It was so unfortunate to cancel the reining but horses welfare comes first and we have two shows in April! 1 of which is an international with Eugonio Lattore! Judges course to follow!

Mother nature was NOT on our side today!!

Huge respect to all of the NOVICE and WESTERN DRESSAGE riders that braved the elements today!

TOMORROW IS GOING TO BE SUNNY!

We have all of our intermediate and open performance riders showing off as well as the mechanical bull competition, hold my beer trail, EXTREME TRAIL, the Nancy Waters Gauntlet and (hopefully) REINING.

COME HANG OUT, CHECK OUT THE AMAZING SAVARA TACK SHOP, FIREHAWK INK TATTOO STUDIO, FREE MECHANICAL BULL RIDES AND LOVE BITES FOOD TRUCK
