What About Billy
Sire: Simonstad xx Dam: Lissner Park xx
TB Liver Chestnut Gelding - foaled 13/9/07
We bred Billy, he is half brother to our retired successful race horse “What About Brownie”. Billy is a great type, with a cheeky and confident personality.
We have retained a ¼ share in Billy, my parents Dave & Annette Gemmell have a ¼ share, and our friends Paul & Tina Shriek and John & Chrissy Shriek own the other half.
Billy has had 1 preparation at the race track, he trialled very well, and is showing ability. He is a late maturer, just as Brownie was, and we are taking our time bringing him on. Fingers crossed he will be worth the wait.

Benny is a lovely big, strong, quality TB. Our plans are to return him to a racing career in 2011, with 1 maybe 2 preparations and see how we go. When he is finished racing we would like to keep this big gentleman around, and train and compete him in dressage and eventing.
Benny is owned and bred by Brian and Annette Ahern of Clifton.

We purchased Gunny as a yearling from Graham & Doris Baumann from Beaudesert, we had previously purchased his full sister “Many Kisses” from them to use as a broodmare. I did all the preparation and pre-training of Gunny, we then sold some shares in him to some friends, and off he went to the track, he is being trained by Garry Wells in Toowoomba.
Gunny won his barrier trial in Mar 08, and in his first prep he had a second, and 2 third placings. We will be chasing a win out of him in his next prep-all going well, he should be back on the race track in Oct 08, following a good spell.
After several placings, Gunny got his win at Ipswich on 14/11/08.
February 2010 - Gunny is still going strong and gained another win in style by 4 ½ lengths at Dalby on 13/02/2010.
SOLD - Congratulations to Tess Lever

2001, Gelding, 15.3hh
We purchased Brownie off the track, when he was rising 3, along with his Dam Lissner Park. He spent the first year in the paddock growing up, in 2006 I competed him in dressage with several wins, and also successfully evented him, we called him “Pocket Rocket”. At his first ODE, Warwick World Cup Qualifier he placed 4th, I decided to return him to a racing career towards the end of 2006. I contacted his previous owner /trainer Garry Wells from Toowoomba and proposed that we give him another try. So off he went, back to the track, and he never looked back.
We had a lot of fun with Brownie, he had 3 wins, 5 seconds and 1 third winning $30,350.00
SOLD to a pleasure home – Congratualtions to Isobel Lucas
