Here at Sterntaler we love all our beautiful school horses . They are family and very well looked after. Everyone of these horses has their own personality and has something valuable to teach you.
And here they are from the smallest pony through to the biggest horse.
Brandy is our smallest pony and the little kids just love her. She is very experienced in teaching walk and trot to the tiny tots and she is great at the beach. Brandy loves pulling the cart and it is so much fun to drive behind the horse for a change instead of being on the horses back,
Chester
Chester is one adorable little pony. This guy is 12 yrs old and is a super little all rounder. He can do novice level dressage and is a super little jumper. He is such a good safe beginners horse being a superstar on the lunge lead, or for more experienced kids looking to learn to ride into a contact and work on there flat work or jump courses.
Misty
This little grey girl is a massive character. She is very quirky, but safe at the same time. She is great at teching the kids how to walk, trot and canter either off or on the lunge line. She loves being the pony of many firsts, first trots, first canters, first jumps and first bareback lessons.

Bella is the sweetest girl and all beginners love her to bits. She is easy to learn to trot and canter on. She was a barrel racer in her earlier years but is know used to canter in a safe, slow rocking horse canter. She is certainly a favorite to many of our young riders.
Jack used to race under the name Thripenny Bit, he was not very good at racing he was too slow. He is in our medium horse range just standing at about 15.2. He loves taking care of his little riders, and is great in group lessons, always following the leader and keeping a steady rhythm that sets the pace, with Dash being his best friend.
He is so cuddly and loves to be brushed and will stand there for hours for some cuddles and carrots
Murphy has one of the sweetest stories of the lot. Martina actually got Murphy as an of the track when he was about 4 years old, He raced under the name Splendt Weekend.

Fort the Fight, is one of the largest school horses we have and a favorite among many. His gentle nature makes him great for beginners or for the more advanced people. He is a happy to do whatever he is asked, honestly he is happy to just walk for the lesson, go on the lunge or he is happy to have a more advanced lesson and go around a jumping course or teach you how to canter.
Teddy
PPP Tricky Legs is a purpose bred warmblood, who was lucky enough to find himself needing his forever home. He is a big boy but has a kind, gentle nature and puts all his heart into his lessons. He has been trained up to medium dressage and competed elemantary. He is a great horse to learn the flatwork on, with a soft mouth, willing nature and the right amount of rhythm you'll be enjoying the sand dancing in no time. He is fantastic if your a beginner wanting to focus on your dressage or experienced wanting to get back into riding.
Henry
Henry Muggings is our biggest school horse and our most experienced school horse. He has competed the old 2 star eventing and has spent many years on the dressage scene. He is such a fun ride with so many buttons to unlock, but has such a soft willing nature and works hard for his rider trying to figure out what is required of him. He is best suited to the dressage side of riding with his years of experience.
