Happy Lunar New Year 🏮

2026 is the year or the Fire Horse, so we couldn't resist asking our fiery steeds what their predictions are for this year.

Pick one of our horses to reveal your 2026 fate.

We would like to ask our followers to please share the below. The Albini Household have lost their entire civilian exhibit. They work extremely hard to bring this to events across the country and we know this will be a big blow.

Any questions or info please get in touch with them.

Happy Winter Solstice!

For our fellow equestrians, the worst of the dark yard chores and riding are behind us. Brighter, longer days are coming.

"What goes through your horses mind do you think?"

This is brilliant 🤣

Today is a day of Remembrance across the world. For all the men, women, and animals who gave their lives and continue to do so.

This watercolor gets shared often among the equestrian circles. The painting, called "Goodbye, Old Man" by Fortunino Matania (Italian, 1881-1963), shows a British soldier saying farewell to his dying horse. The painting was commissioned by The Blue Cross Fund in 1916 to raise money to help relieve the suffering of horses on active service in Europe. Over one million horses saw service with the British Army during World War I and The Blue Cross treated thousands.

It now hangs in the board room of the animal hospital in Victoria, London.

Matania has a varied collection of paintings and drawings depicting often overlooked parts of the war we highly recommend further looking into.

✨ 2026 BOOKS NOW OPEN ✨

From photoshoots and parades, to national reenactments, we would love to hear from you if you would like to add a little something extra to your event.

Covering periods from the Ancient Greek era to the Boer Wars, we provide a wide range of knowledge on horses in history both on and off the battlefield, through skill at arms displays, battle recreations, and our intimate living history set up.

We've also begun adventuring a little into the fantasy realm for photoshoots and film/TV work.

So whatever you would like, be it Princesses or the Mongol Horde, drop us a message with your event to get it in the books now at [email protected].

Taking a break after the 2025 season for some of our members meant jetting off to Mongolia for an intense horseback trek across deserts and mountains! We'll share a few photos and videos over the next few weeks but in the meantime check out where they managed to unfurl the banner for Rebellion 🐎

If you think you've had a bad week, just think you could be one of these heads.

Thank you to for the well timed snaps from the Battle of Evesham and to our royal head maker Lisa for making these every year for our amusement.
