The Aachen horses are renowned for their jumping ability - even though a number of them are doing well in the Dressage arena.

Australia has an Aachen horse on the WEG Eventing Team - Stuart Tinney's AVA.

This stallion is standing at Killwarren Stud which is owned by Keren and Phillipa Davidson

Flowervale Heartbreaker by the outstanding Dutch jumping sire Heartbreaker, by Nimmerdor KWPN.
He is out of the Fechtor (Hanovarian) mare Kooharra Friendens Rhu who is from Felicity by Fremder.  So this horse carries a double cross to the outstanding Hanoverian stallion, Ferdi.

Flowervale Heartbreaker still has some maturing to do, but as his name suggests he is stunning and has a wonderful jumping style and attitude.  You can see more of him on the Flowervale Stud web site

Danielle Harvey on her lovely young stallion JD Arnover.  Arnover has Oldenburg blood through his famous sire Argentinus and also through Lucano, on his dam's side.

Arnover is a big loose mover with plenty of jumping scope.  Danielle is based at the beautiful Officer property Jesmond Dene which has century old oak trees throughout the beautifully fenced paddocks.

The property also features a European style barn with a clock tower and outstanding indoor arena.

Outstanding TB Stallion Cool Cat is one of the last foals by the well performed Irish TB Aythorp.

Most Dressage enthusiasts will recall this horse's outstanding success in the Australian Young Dressage Horse Championships when he won the 3 and 4 year old class with Anky van Grunsven as the riding judge.  I can still see Anky's smile as she rode the talented Cool Cat.  In her commentary, she said that she loved the horse and why did Europe not have such TB's ...  If they did she wouuld ride a TB!
The horse was nicely ridden by Dirk Dijkstra for Scarlet Nordgren who was suffering from 'morning sickness' - sincere congratulations to Scarlet - what an exciting time.

Scarlet now lives with her partner in Winchlesea so is Dirk and Sicca's neighbour.  I understand that
Sylvia MacLachlan is also a local having moved across from South Australia. 
Maybe Winchlesea will become like that little strip in Dural???

Shantaroun TB (USA) by well respected sire Green Dancer.

A lovely 'knowing' thoroughbred with the refined qualities that only a TB can offer.

This horse has proven his ability to produce excellent performance horses,  he is the sire of one of Phillipa Davidson's best 3 Day Eventers.  Phillipa and her mum Keren stand the horse at their
Killwarren Stud in near Seymour.  Rainbow Warrier (by Aachen) joins them this season.

Torlea Electronic by imported Danish stallion Wunder (dec'd)
is owned and was bred by Vicky and Terry Cubley of Ballan.  They sill stand the horse at stud to a limited book of mares.  Electronic is ridden here by FEI rider Amber Evans who, with her husband Ollie are working on the horse's schooling.  Ollie gives the horse some work over the jumps, while Amber focuses on his Dressage - they both insist that he excels in their area.  Electronic has a great temperament.
