BEF Breeders Quality Mark Award for Excellence

We have been awarded the BEF Breeders Quality mark Award for excellence for the past 5 years, one of only a handful of studs to have passed the rigorous checks & inspection process.

This gives mare owners the piece of mind of knowing that their mares will receive the highest level of care & veterinary back up during their stay with us from our highly qualified team.

For A.I. customers it guarantees that the quality & processing of the semen is to the highest standards, with first rate disease control measures. Also that the correct paperwork is carried out to ensure that the resulting foal can be registered & have verified parentage, a part of the process which is often neglected.

With regular inspection's by the BEF & DEFRA taking place it also ensures that these standards are permanently in place. So now not only is our reputation your guarantee but also the award.
