As specialists in long haul travel we do not accept horses to be transported short distances so as not to delay horses travelling long distances arriving at their destinations. Likewise we do not do milk runs to collect horses and insist horses are moved early by a local carrier to one of our strategically place stables to avoid delays in route to horses in transit.
We are very proud of how our horses arrive at their destinations ans through consistant research and improvement only 1 in 300 horses we move show any signs or symptoms of travel sickness.
Our 100% occupancy is testimony to our reputation and requires early bookings to avoid disappointment. We do not run to a set schedule and taylor our departures to endeavour to meet everyone's needs.
