7th May 2008
We have relocated our stud
from Victoria to beautiful
sunny Queensland and so far it
has been cliché just like the ads on
TV; 'Beautiful one day and
perfect the next'! Thankyou to
everyone who has welcomed us and
sent through their best wishes
for our move.
Below are some photos of the
new property, all of our horses
are going to think that they
have died and gone to heaven
when they see their new pasture.
They are all due to arrive late
next week.
Our last show in
Victoria was the VIC
State Paint Show which
was held the weekend
before we left for
Queensland.
Overall we had a very
enjoyable time and a
lovely send off from our
Victorian friends. We
will miss you guys
dearly and look forward
to catching up with you
soon.

already been pre purchased. We
eagerly await its arrival and
expect this to be a great cross.
Vanilla will be rebred back
to Sir Cool Skippin* for a 2009
foal (this foal will be for
sale).
With just 2 weeks until our
big move & stud relocation to
QLD, we are very busy with
packing and planning the move.

Platinum had many admirers
who came up to congratulate him
on a great show. Many people
stated that they could not get
over his muscle definition for a
yearling and how beautifully
behaved he is for a yearling
colt. We are certainly very
happy with the success that
Platinum has had in the show
ring so far.
Below are some photos that I
snapped of Platinum when we
arrived home.
CPS Intenselysophisticated
(Sophie) showed last week at the
Yarra Valley Classic, winning
GRAND CHAMPION Paint mare. It
was dissapointing that the
numbers of paint horses showing
was very low and Sophie had a
rest from showing this week in
the 40C heat.
We look forward to seeing
more paint horses out showing as
the industry recovers from the
effects of EI.
Sophie will next we shown at
the Victorian State Paint Show
in April.

We have certainly been busy
over the last few months of
2007. We have sold our property
in Victoria and in May 2008 we
will be undertaking the exciting
yet mammoth task of moving our
whole stud to QLD!! Thankyou to
everyone in QLD that have
already offered support and
encouragement for our move.
We have purchased a property
in beautiful Delaneys Creek, 50
minutes north of Brisbane
Airport. With 600 meters
of absolute creek frontage, our
horses are sure to enjoy grazing
the lush creek flats, while
we are sure to enjoy watching
them from the new house that
comes with the property!
The majority of Delaneys
Creek is great dairy country and
thankfully enjoys high annual
rainfall which will be a welcome
change.
In other news, Belinda is now a
qualified Equine Artificial
Insemination Technician
after successfully completing
the relevant components of the
Advanced Diploma of Horse
Management.
Importantly, what this means is that
commencing the 2008 breeding
season, we will be waiving the
stallion collection fees on both
of our stallions for the first
collection/shipment (stallion
service & freight fees will
apply).
In
2008 our stallions stud fees
will be;
$1000 for Oh Im Awesome
Multiple National and State
Champion; and
$1250 for DMB Platinum
National Champion, AHS Grand
Champion & Futurity Champion,
(guaranteed dilute coloured foal
from non grey mares).
10% Discount Available for
Multiple Mare Bookings!!!
Collection fees will not
apply for the first collection
(freight fees are additional).
DMB Platinum's book is filling
fast as he will be standing to a
limited number of mares for his
first season. Please contact us
by
e-mail
or phone 0434 503 843 to ensure
a place for your mare and to
avoid disappointment.
In 2008 we will also offer on
farm insemination for client's
mares. Please contact Belinda
for further details.
Arnie filled his book relatively
early in the season, and there
will be 12 'Awesome' foals due
from August 2008. We simply cant
wait!
Please check back during the
breeding season as we will be
providing regular updates and
photos of the new arrivals. We
have 4 of our own AWESOME babies
due out of our best mares and
they will all be for sale.
Expressions of interest are now
being taken for these foals.
Please go to our foals page for
a full list of our mares that
have PTIF to Arnie.
For those people disappointed
that
they were unable to breed to
Oh Im Awesome this year (due to
his limited book and/or EI), he
has proven himself a potent
stallion with a 100%
Conception Rate and we have
opened his book for the 2008
season. Please contact us if you
would like to make a booking.
Finally, we would like to
wish everyone a very Merry
Christmas and a Safe & Happy New
Year. We hope that everyone that
has been affected by EI have a
much healthier and prosperous
2008! We hope to see everyone
back out in show ring in the New
Year.

Breeding season is well under way here at CPS. We
have been blessed here in Victoria not to have yet had an
outbreak of Equine Influenza. We
still have a few breedings available to our
Multiple National

paint stallion
OH IM AWESOME
(Live Cover and AI
available). We are accepting mares from most parts of Victoria,
please
contact us for further
particulars and criteria.
This will be OH IM AWESOME'S only season
standing in Victoria as we will be relocating our stud in 2008
to QLD - Stay tuned for more details about our big move!!!!!
Just back from the Qld State Paint
Championship show. The weather was
fantastic and a welcome break from the
freezing conditions that we have been
experiencing down here in Victoria
lately. I had a great time at the show,
it had a very relaxed atmosphere and
friendly competition.
Thankyou very much to
Oh Im Awesome's
(Arnie's) new trainers Mark and Marie Farmer for the
wonderful results that they achieved with him at the
show ~
Qld State Reserve Champion in both Western Pleasure
and Hunter Under Saddle!!!!
The judge, Deanna Akin from the USA, was
particularly impressed with Arnie. She took the time
after one of the classes to approach Marie and
complement our big fellow who she had nicknamed
'Big Bubba'
during the show. The judge initially commented that
Arnie was going to be a great kid's mount and
asked whether the kids hang from his tail? When
Marie pointed out that Arnie is in fact a colt, the
judge was quite taken back and very impressed! She
then invited Arnie to stand at her ranch in the USA
any time!
Arnie is coming
home to Victoria next week to complete his stud
duties. He will return to Mark and Marie early in
the new year for his 3YO season and we look forward
to his continued success under saddle.
Keep an eye out for our Arnie on the front cover of
Horse Deals - Stallions at Stud Edition!
We still have a few breedings available to Arnie for
the 2007 season, so please
contact us if you would like to
reserve a service or if you would like a contract sent out to
you.

We have just arrived home from our very cold and wet
trip to NSW for the AQHA National Show Q7 & NSWPHA
State Show. It was a very eventful trip to say the
least. I cannot recommend trying to camp in the
middle of one of NSW'S worst storms in history...
After our tent collapsed in the middle of the storm,
and our annexe had a foot of water flowing through
it, we moved into a comfortable and cozy (if not
very cramped) cabin where we were able to dry out
and warm up for the next week and a half!
On our trip to NSW (in between the rain storms) we
were fortunate to visit both JVQ Stud and Burkes
Stud. It was great to visit both of these top studs.
Many thanks to Jackie and Kylie (at JVQ) and Melissa
and Di (at Burkes) for showing us all of your
wonderful horses.

Champion A/O Weanling Colt.

Our first show was the AQHA Nationals Q7. The
weather was absolutely appalling for Halter Day. The
rain and wind were later described by the weather
bureau as the equivalent of a cyclone (the winds
were in excess of 100Km/h and we received over 200
mLs of rain in a day and a half!).
DMB
Platinum has
now added a
NATIONAL CHAMPION title
to his accomplishments, after winning the 2006
Weanling Colt A/O. We were also very proud of
our boy when he placed 3rd overall in the Weanling
Futurity!
GSQ
Texas Te (Jet) also had success at the
Nationals, placing 3rd in both her Open & Amateur
classes in a strong field of Aged Mares.
Thankyou very much to Jackie
Hardwicke of JVQ Stud for sponsoring the First Place Prizemoney of $5,000 in memory of Vivian Anderson.
CPS Count
Woodstock also had a great show for his
owners Alysha & Nathan Hardy of Hardays Stud. In the
Belinda Abbott Memorial Weanling Futurity,
Woody was part of a three way tie for 2nd place and
was awarded overall 4th place (due to the
tie-breaker judges placings). Woody also won
STATE GRAND CHAMPION
Paintbred Stallion
&
STATE CHAMPION A/O
Paintbred Stallion.
Nathan & Alysha have had great success with Woody
this year, and we wish them ongoing success next
season.
Our 2YO colt
Oh Im Awesome
(Arnie) did not show at the NSW State Show as he is
having a well deserved rest from showing after his
successful campaign at the NPHA. He has gone up to
QLD to his new trainers Mark & Marie Farmer who are
going to campaign Arnie under saddle next season.
Arnie will return home next month to stand at stud
here at Chyandra Park in Victoria for the 2007
breeding season, and he will return to Mark early in
the new year for his 3yo season.
Our other show horses will also all take a well
earned rest over winter. The foals (Sophie &
Platinum) will both be turned out and be allowed to
grow and mature naturally. They have both had
exceptional weanling campaigns and we look forward
to taking them out again next season for their
yearling year.
I hope you all enjoy the
new colour scheme and updated photos that I have
posted throughout the site.
WOW!!!!
Our stallion
Oh Im Awesome
(Arnie) had a sensational campaign last
weekend at the NPHA. Arnie made the
final of the $20,000
2YO Western Pleasure Futurity
in a field of 29 of
Australia's finest performance bred horses. Arnie &
Adam also finaled in his other event, the Ltd 2YO
Western Pleasure Futurity again in a field of 29
horses!
Arnie won a beautiful GIST buckle for being the
highest placed paint horse for the 2YO WP Futurity.
Top 10 in both futurities was a wonderful
accomplishment in such a strong field. Arnie
certainly attracted a lot of interest and had a
great following at the show. Thankyou to everyone
who
has contacted us to congratulate us on Arnie's
success.

We had an awesome show this
weekend at the GRAC Futurity Show, taking out all of
the major halter awards with our horses. Thanks to
GRAC for the great prizes on offer (Wine, Trophies,
and lots more) and especially to Lisa Mott for her
fabulous Garlands (we were lucky enough to bring
home 4).
Thankyou also to Lisa and her husband for snapping
the great photos of our horses.

We are so
proud of our beautiful girl Sophie ~

three American Judges, Sophie won the;
SUPREME WEANLING FUTURITY EXHIBIT!!!!!
National Weanling Filly Futurity,
National Champion Weanling Filly &
YISC Weanling Futurity Champion!!!!
It has been a
long road for Sophie, from her difficult birth to
her various setbacks during her show preparation,
but it has all been worth the worry and the hard
work! We could not be more proud of her gorgeous
temperament which is only enhanced by her gorgeous looks!
Sophie was certainly a crowd
favourite. Thankyou to everyone who offered
their congratulations and positive comments on
Sophie, she sure did steal a lot of hearts. We had a
lot of enquiries about whether Sophie is for sale -
sorry guys she is definitely not for sale.
Sophie will stay here at CPS and we are
sure she will make a great youth horse for our son
Tristan in years to come. You can visit Sophie's
webpage

Deb & Trev
bought a Mighty Striker from us in 2004 after coming
for a visit and 'just to have a look'. Deb fell in
love with Striker at only a few weeks old, and just
had to have him. Deb successfully campaigned him at
the Victorian State Championship Show in 2005.
Striker won the Victorian
State Weanling Futurity &
State Champion Weanling Colt as well as
other futurities that season. Unfortunately Striker
fell ill on the trip to Dubbo as a weanling.
Deb & Striker
successfully defended their Victorian State titles
in 2006 and 2007. This year was Striker's return
trip to the Nationals after falling ill as a weaner,
and what a return!
CONGRATULATIONS GUYS!
We are very proud of Striker and all that he has
accomplished. We look forward to see him competing
soon under saddle.

Our
next show was the NSWPHA State Show. Again another
horrible day for showing (NSW coldest June day on
record!). Our gorgeous
weanling filly Sophie
(CPS Intenselysophisticated)
was sick all week with a virus (no doubt exasperated
by the dreadful weather) and dropped a lot of
condition due to her poor appetite and fever. It was touch and go
whether she would even show due to her virus, and on
Halter Morning it came down to whether or not she
would pass a temperature check. Her temperature was
OK to show and we decided to let her
go out there and give it a go. The field of
weanlings for the
$5,000 Belinda Abbott Memorial Weanling Halter
Futurity
was one of the strongest we have shown against this
year. Despite all odds Sophie has done it yet again,
winning the Futurity!!!
Once again she was a popular winner with the crowd
and I promise to reply to everyone within the next
few days that has sent us through their
congratulations.
Sophie has now taken out the trifecta ~ the
National, NSW & VIC State Weanling Paint Futurities
and has won over
$10,000 in prizemoney and prizes!!!
