Welcome to the National American Saddlebred Horse Society blog

WELCOME to our blog.....
We will eventually be utilising this blog as our main news page, which will be linked to from our main website http://www.americansaddlebred.org/
It is currently able to be used by NASHS members by invitation only and will be well moderated.
However, due to the nature of the internet it is still able to be viewed by others so please note: DO NOT post any information or pictures you would not liked viewed by other outside parties.
All comments will be viewed prior to posting so please keep the content clean, polite and non-political.
Any comments found to be defamatory and/or not in the best interests of the club or the breed will be deleted immediately. A series of warnings will be issued to the person and any continuation of the same behaviour will result in a ban on posting and a membership status review.
Please bear with us as we become familiar with the blog attributes and eventually in time more pages of interest will be added.
This will not replace the website due to it's obvious restrictions, so please refer to the website for any other information, downloads etc.

In order to be fair to all members we request that you try to keep photos to a minimum of 1-2 per post.
The HOME page is the only page where you can actually post to. So, other pages such as club announcements will remain as a stand alone information source.
Thankyou, Regards Admin.

Latest Results from Aussie Saddlebred Ambassador -"Canyonleigh Sirecho"

Rocco and Lisa at Morven Park last Sunday. First Event of the season; Finished clear showjumping, cross country, in a very close, competitive class. mid-field...but all very close!

Editor's note:For those who don't know Rocco... he was exported to USA as an Eventing horse by Kate Chadderton and Marg Warwick to compete against locally bred horses.

He has been a great ambassador for the Australian bred Saddlebred both here and overseas and is by the beautiful stallion Canyonleigh Echo Commander (dec.) by Sutton's Peppermint Valley Commander (dec.) and out of the great matriach mare Canyonleigh Katy Stardust (SPVC X Suttons Kalarama Penny)
He is now owned by Lisa Kurr and the pair still share a connection to Kate as she guides them through their eventing career as their coach, with Marg and NASHS members as the support team back home... go Rocco and Lisa.

Photos here....just click on link
