23.01.2022 As the Autumn sun sets and shows its divine colours over the front paddocks of the farm, it’s a reminder weaning time is approaching for our 2020 foals. Let’s hope the 2021 foal and young stock shows go ahead as planned, I’m super excited to show these gorgeous chestnut babies off
23.01.2022 That post wash shine before he rolls
22.01.2022 48 hours old & still unfolding but I’m so in love with this fiery little redhead, Divinyl EE ~ Brie (Meridian Poetic Charm/Drumming R). She is absolutely beautiful to look at and carrying bloodlines of some true champions; Totilas, De Niro, Jive Magic, Regardez Moi, Regal Poetry in Motion, Donnerhall xx, Pommery, Salute xx, she is the complete package, she will be retained to follow in her mum’s footsteps
22.01.2022 From little things, big things grow...and just like that it’s weaning time. All Illusion EE - Wesley (Goldmine Mirage HSH x All Excellence) approx 75% TB, 22% ASH, 3% Arab. This colt has a super laid back temperament, taking everything in his stride. He is bold and confident and gradual weaning has made this whole process much less stressful.
20.01.2022 Wesley 11 months old

17.01.2022 Happy international cat day to all the purrrfect pusspa’s out there. Tike is 14yo this year and still loves hanging out in the hay shed on a sunny winter day
16.01.2022 Happy 1st day of Spring 2020 from Esprit Estate, who would have thought I would be matching my Covid-19 face masks with the native flowering gum trees we have around the farm . Spring brings so much to be excited about; longer sunny days, lush green grass, foals, & flowers. I’m missing friends and family but trying to stay positive through this pandemic, 2020 has been a tough and trying year!

14.01.2022 Meridian Poetic Charm & Divinyl EE Enjoying some beautiful spring sunshine
13.01.2022 Sunday scratches at feed time
12.01.2022 Seeding and selective spraying has worked wonders in this mare and foal yard. Actively growing in preparation for the first foal of 2020 due in 8 weeks.
10.01.2022 This is a pinnacle moment for me. What may seem minuscule has taken me many years of planning, hard work, goal setting and sacrificing. The purchase of Meridian Poetic Charm back in 2012 was following my dream to produce successful performance horses that would go on to be my foundation broodmares. Producing well handled, educated & successful performance horses from generation proven bloodlines of both the sire and dam. Focusing on quality over quantity to ensure all our foals get the best start possible. All foals produced from Esprit Estate will hold this lower case cursive e under a crown on there left shoulder.
08.01.2022 We have a vast array of native birds that call the farm home. Over the years we have seen many different species although our most common visitors seem to be King Parrots, Rainbow Lorikeets, Rosellas, Yellow Tailed Black Cockatoos, Kookaburras, Gallahs, Corella’s, Boobook Owls, a pair of Wedgetail Eagles and various honey eaters, finches and wrens. All the trees and shrubs we are planting in the tree lines and around the property not only provide us privacy, the livestock w...indbreaks and shelters, but also offer food and nesting options for the Aussie natives. Which is so critical considering the bushfire in 2019 ripped through over 600ha of bushland in our backyard, and also the huge amount of local development that is encroaching on native habitats. We are slowly creating our sanctuary not only for ourselves & the four legged fur creatures but also the locals of this amazing land we call home
08.01.2022 All Illusion EE (aka Wesley, Wez, Wezman, Wezza) 2019 gelding from All Excellence by Goldmine Mirage HSH, reg ACE, ASHS & AHSA pending. Ace Assessed for conformation and movement by two of Germany’s greats in warmblood and performance horse breeding, 80% Elite by Gerd Kust & 78.25% Premium by Heinrich Klatte. Wes is a gorgeous man with a lovely trainable temperament, I see him as a true allrounder performance horse. Pretty enough to show, with correct movement big enough for dressage, bloodline ability to jump or event, and brave enough to work on cows. Expressions of interest are invited.
07.01.2022 Wesley ~ All Illusion EE 8 months old and taking everything in his stride. From tying up, rugs, boots, washing, floating, hoof trimming, show halter training, & clipping, he literally approaches every challenge with a no fuss attitude. I’m so proud of this youngster, he is shaping up to be an impressive and easy boy to work with. Also finally able to see his chrome with 3 socks a star and snip. As Maritza ~ All Excellence first foal we aim to prove him in hand and potentially under saddle in time, expressions of interest are always welcome. I am keen to revisit this breeding combination for a full sibling in the future
06.01.2022 We purchased the farm at Glen Forbes almost 6 years ago. In that time we have been not just renovating & re-fencing but backfilling tree lines that were almost non existent, with an array of native species and some ornamentals. Blackwoods, spotted gums, banksia, wattles, bottlebrush, ficifolia, and proteas just to name a few. The tree lines offer windbreaks, shade for the horses and privacy. We have so many native birds that feast on the flowers and nectar including black co...ckatoos that love the banksia nuts. It hasn’t been an easy task though, with our local kangaroos choosing to demolish the trees on more than one occasion. We have spent many hours chicken meshing the trees so that they have a chance to grow without kangaroo damage, and it has really paid off. Some of the blackwoods and coastal wattles are easy 5+ metres tall which is great considering they were tube stock. Parts of the tree line are so dense it is like a hedge and you can’t walk through. The bonus of this is some of the lovely flowers we get to bring inside off the protea bushes. These photos show the gradual transformation of the farm & one of the tree lines when we first purchased it. Some the trees first planted including some established ornamental Lombardy poplars in 2015, the tree line now and some of the flowers produced. We have many more trees to plant, but are slowly creating our little piece of paradise
06.01.2022 Queen Tia & Princess Brie I’m so excited about this filly she has a confident, inquisitive personality just like her mum with the looks and movement to match.
05.01.2022 Mother’s Day is my chance to give this very special person a shout out for all that she does. Mum has always encouraged me as a kid to follow my dreams and work hard to reach my goals, she has been there to support me in my triumphs and through the tears. She raised me to be a strong, confident, independent woman. So many early morning starts, hours on the road and late nights travelling around to compete with the horses. She was there when I graduated uni on the pathway to m...y dream job, and is once again supporting me as I hit the books for another degree. She understands my passion and drive to succeed, her help and assistance with the horses at the farm has allowed me to follow my career pathway. Whether it’s pouring rain or scorching hot mum looks after the horses and fur kids while I’m away for work. I absolutely would not be where I am if it wasn’t for all that she does. Words can’t ever express how greatful I am to have you as my mum and my best friend. Happy Mother’s Day Barb Wake xxxx
05.01.2022 Wesley loves his new paddock toy
05.01.2022 Last Saturday we welcomed All Pride EE~ Bert (All Excellence/Triple Trees Prince Perfect) Dutch riding pony x Thoroughbred chestnut colt. He is a lovely big boy, with an elevated bold canter and a gorgeous face, 12.89% Arabian he will make a beautiful open hunter and also be competitive in breed classes. Expected to mature large galloway to small hack & blessed with bling
04.01.2022 New pink ball for the golden child
03.01.2022 There is nothing more beautiful than witnessing the soft nickers of a mare to her newborn foal. I feel very blessed to have Meridian Poetic Charm foal in daylight this morning. A gorgeous chestnut filly with plenty of chrome, and a pedigree stamped with superstars
