25.01.2022 Lot 27 - Bighouse Peggy # 250609 Dalby Australian Stock Horse Sale 2020 PEGGY is a stunning 4 year old bay mare standing at 15.1h. She is very quiet, soft and reliable, with a great temperament. Had 2 years mustering, cuts out and rates cattle well. Great campdraft prospect. Sells Saturday evening.... https://youtu.be/OT11ngIL_cM

24.01.2022 Select Sires has had its eye on Fern Hills Bennett (aka Ben) for many years, especially our first year at Warwick when we saw him win the Stallion draft with Pe...te Comiskey. In more recent years we've watched his progeny, admittedly initially because of master horseman 10 yo Riley Ellrott, but he alerted us to how good Ben's progeny really are. They suit the whole family, they draft, they challenge and they bring big money at sales. Until now Ben has not stood to outside mares, so this is a unique opportunity to strike while the iron's hot. He won't be at Boonara Performance Horses for long so we might be a wee bit late this year, but interest will determine what happens next year. Contact Huon & Colleen Smith or Big House Stock Horses, both will endeavour to accommodate you. Read Ben's story, see the stock he comes from, but probably more importantly look at his progeny. See how he is breeding on. Ben is retired from competition & whilst the family no longer ride him, Belinda Ellrott says, "He will always be a favourite. He was my dream horse." www.bighousestockhorses.com.au See more

24.01.2022 Challenge accepted! Its not weak to speak

23.01.2022 It was an exciting day for us with Craig & Matlock winning the Camm Agricultural Group Incentive Challenge and Riley & Cheerio taking out 3rd. Very proud wife and mother here Very proud of our horses too We would like to thank all the sponsors and the Darling Downs ASH Branch for putting on the challenge. Congratulations to all involved.

23.01.2022 Very proud of the job Riley did not only in the selling ring but also in the challenge on Cheerio. Cheerio is off to a great home, he certainly was an easy horse to love and have around. We miss our Cheerio smooches but Im sure Max will be making the most of them.

23.01.2022 Well the kids had a ball this weekend and got some ribbons too. Abby 2nd and Riley 3rd in the Junior draft. Then got another day off school to walk the cattle and horses home from the draft. Livin the Dream!

22.01.2022 Well we finally made it home from the Nutrien Classic. We had to go the long way but was well worth it if everybody is receiving some of this glorious rain. We would like to thank the Sainsbury family and McClymont family for purchasing the two mares and the underbidders who helped us achieve a wonderful result. We dropped Blazette off today and Pumpkin is staying with us and heading north to young Maddy next week. So wonderful to get home to some follow up rain and some beautiful green grass.

19.01.2022 Well thats a wrap for Dalby 2019. We would like to thank all the purchasers and underbidders of our horses this year for a wonderful result in these trying conditions. All horses were sold and are off to campdrafting homes so it will be wonderful to see them out and about competing. Thankyou to everyone who has sent congratulatory messages and kind comments on the quality of our horses and their presentation. ... We would also like to thank Ray White Equine and The Darling Downs ASH Branch, the cattle donors and sponsors for organising the sale and the incentive events. Great job Finally we would like to thank our 2 wonderful kids, and friends Blake, Charlie, Trevor and Jodie for helping out over the weekend. We couldnt have done it without you. Craig & Belinda

16.01.2022 A big congratulations to Max Turley and Bighouse Cheerio on their 2nd placing in the futurity draft at Beaudesert recently. They were tied for first place and had to run it off twice!! Max purchased Cheerio at last year's Dalby sale and this was only the second time they had been able to chase cattle since then. Congratulations again Max, we think you and Cheerio will be a formidable duo in the coming years. Congrats also on your 3rd in the novice with your other horse. A v...ery successful weekend by the sounds of things. We couldn't get a photo of Max and Cheerio, this is one of Riley putting Cheerio through the sale last year Photo credit to the lovely Sam at Flash Pony.

15.01.2022 Evening folks, we have been a little busy doing a second round of weaning because of the dry and had hoped to have the videos done by now. We were lucky enough to get under 67mm rain a couple of days ago which put us in great spirits but made things a bit slippery for doing any videos. We have some dry work videos done and hope to get some cattle work ones in the next day or so. We will have them out as soon as we can. We hope most of you got under some of the wet stuff and if not your turn wont be far away

04.01.2022 Great start to the weekend with Craig and Bighouse Queenie having to run off for the Futurity draft and getting second place. Thankyou to Redskin Droughtmasters for their sponsorship once again this year.

04.01.2022 Some great photos of Queenie in the Futurity draft last weekend taken by the talented Jodie Humble. Thanks Jodie

02.01.2022 Evening everyone, we have been lucky enough to score 101mm of rain over the last two weeks so we have a beautiful tinge of green around the place, albeit only 1 inch high at the moment. The links to a couple of videos of Rileys mare Pumpkin are below. Its still a little slippery and the cows are still skinny so we did some videos of Riley rugging Pumpkin and also closing a gate, cracking a whip and riding her bareback instead. See you all at the Classic in a few days and hopefully everyone gets their share of rain soon https://youtu.be/6GV3s0itCec https://youtu.be/DFYUW_b4jQw

02.01.2022 Dont forget if you cant be here the preworks and Sale are being livestreamed for your viewing. Matlock is up soon and Duplicity will be later on today.

01.01.2022 Well the nominations for the Dalby Sale are done. We have 5 and Riley has 1. Now to wait and see how they try to injure themselves between now and sale day

01.01.2022 Was a sad day a week or so ago when we found one of our favourites had gone on to greener pastures and bigger campdrafts. Our little pocket rocket Madell ( Develin Creek Middel) has left us and others with many fond memories. She was the first horse Riley drafted and won a ribbon on, albeit when he was 4 1/2 in the minis at Weetalaba. She was our little pocket rocket with a heart the size of Pharlaps and has left us two fillies and two geldings to go on with.
