The Oakfield Gang
At Oakfield Farm there are currently 15 Icelandics and 1 big horse. Some of the Icelandics are currently doing their bit for nature and working hard eating grass at a conservation grazing project locally. They all come back to the Farm for February and March though and join their friends then. This page has links to pages for each of the horses with a little about them and photos of them. It will be expanded as more photos are taken and the young horses start their training. Loki´s page has now been added so I will move on to recent members of the Oakfield Gang who have moved to new homes.
Ţrá (pronounced Thra to ryme with
cow) She is the old lady of the gang and is at livery at Oakfield.
Ysta (Pronounced Easter). A young horse
who was born in 1998 and who has started his training. He was bought by Oakfield Farm in
2002 and is for sale. SOLD subject to trial period
Flikka Flo's daughter and Colin's second horse. She is kept at livery at
Oakfield Farm.
Sól My newest riding horse, she has come a long way since I have been
riding her and is currently in foal to Drifandi and will be rested until she has had her
foal. I suspect that the time off for the foal will help her ridden ability and that I
will be competing her in 2004.
Rák My Girl, She is very special to me
as, apart from being a wonderful riding horse, she is very talented and has taken me to
two World Championships and qualified me for a third that we did not attend. She is
curently in foal to Drifandi and is on light duties now as a result. I've just taken some more pictures of Rák driving.
Árdis A very special 5 gaited mare
that I have competed on but have never yet got the best out of while the judges are
watching. She is a superb riding horse
Flo Colins beloved Flea. She is at livery at Oakfield Farm.
Nott (pronounced Note). An excellent
riding horse who is primarily ridden by Cherrie. Nott is responsible for a lot of
people's first ride on Icelandics.
Bjarmi Hilke´s horse kept at Oakfield on livery
Randalin Isafold's daughter from 1998.
She has just started her training.
Fjalar Runa's son born in 1999.
Erik Rák's son who was born in 1998
and will be starting training in the next few days.
Rúna She was
the first foal we bred and is now owned by Paul and kept at livery with us. Fjalar is her
son.
Gustur Ţrá's son who was born in
1998. Ţrá's owner has bought him and he is kept at livery at Oakfield Farm. He will be
starting his training soon.
Loki The newest addition to the herd.
He is Flikka's son and is owned by Oakfield Farm. NEW
Those of you who have been following the development of the 'Oakfield Gang' page may be wondering what I am going to do with my time after I have put the pictures of the last horse up on this page. To give you something to look forward to I can tell you now that I have decided to do a page for the horses who have been sold by Oakfield in the last year or so wherever I can find the photos to do it. This should appear over the next week or so. I will then be regularly updating the pictures of the gang as I take more photos.
