Sentinel Hill Farm, the breeding chapter of Gimcrack Equestrian Centre, welcomes the beautiful Emma, the first filly to be born from our Voltaire x Nurzeus mare, Jimarilla.
 
Jimarilla comes from a distinguished damline, which has produced many approved stallions and upper level sport horses both in Europe and in North America. After producing four colts in a row, we are thrilled to finally have a filly to carry on this wonderful damline in our breeding program. Emma's sire is VDL Windsor H( Indoctro x Ahorn), who has stamped this filly with his beautiful refined exterior and wonderful temperament. For more information of Sentinel Hill Farms, please visit;

With the show season around the corner, Gimcrack Equestrian Centre has tightened their biosecurity measures.
So what is Biosecurity? Biosecurity is the practice of reducing the chance of infectious disease from being carried onto or spread from or within a farm. For more information on biosecurity visit http://www.equineguelph.ca/education/biosecurity.ph

Our very own Bovaire (VDL Ulando H x Voltaire), a product of our breeding program, captured the Championship of the 2009 Eastern Canadian Free Jumping Competition on Sunday April 5 at the Royal Canadian Riding Academy in Cedar Valley, ON. The competition's esteemed judge, Torchy Millar, awarded Bovaire a score of 9 for canter & impression, 9 for jumping technique, and 8.5 for scope. We are excited to see what his full brother will achieve next year, and are thrilled that this promising young horse has been added to our own list of freejumping champions: Concorde's Tiantha (2003), VDL Ulando H (2005) and VDL Windsor H (2006).
