Sorry to let everyone know that my friend Carol, had her beloved Arab stallion Rabanat put to sleep last night.
The handsome, Rabanat, 22 yrs, had a wonderful life and illustrious show career and I was privileged to be his show rider for last summer.
RIP Rudi and thoughts are with Carol

So sorry to hear, Carol must be devestated. I remember going to see him when I lived in Guisborough. He was a total gent to all his ladies and was happy living in the field with the mares. A gorgeous boy that will be missed. |

I owned Rabanats father, Rabashan, who sadly died in 2005. He was bred at home at White Lodge and remained with us his entire life. I remember Julie Phillips bringing her mare to us to be covered and the result was Rabanat. I am very sorry to hear this news. I miss Rabs every day even though it's been 7 years, I hope his son inherited his character which was half-human, half-horse! My thoughts are with you xx |
