Plantation Farm

Is in foal or as a resting option.

At Plantation Farm, we understand the importance of a safe and stress-free environment for broodmares and their foals. Our spacious and well-maintained facilities provide the perfect space for mares to gestate and foals to grow. We have experienced staff on hand 24/7 to ensure the health and well-being of both mare and foal.

Our veterinary services are overseen by Kate Bandey, an experienced equine vet. With her expertise, we are able to provide prompt and professional care to all our horses. Whether it's routine vaccinations, reproductive examinations, or emergency treatments, our priority is the health and welfare of every horse under our care.

In addition to our breeding services, Plantation Farm also offers stud services for both thoroughbred and sport-horse breeds. Our well-bred and well-performed stallions are available for natural covering or artificial insemination. We work closely with mare owners to ensure the best possible match for their mares, promoting the production of healthy and successful offspring.

As an added benefit, Plantation Farm is located in the picturesque Hampshire countryside. With acres of beautiful farmland and hacking opportunities, our horses enjoy a varied and enjoyable training regime. Our facilities include a fabulous 5-furlong all-weather hill gallop, a deep sand round gallop, and a large indoor school. This allows our horses to train in different environments and develop their fitness while keeping them happy and fresh.

Richard Bandey, our racehorse trainer, has a hands-on approach and rides every horse he trains. This gives him a genuine feel of their progress and allows him to provide individual attention to each horse. Our training programme includes schooling in the arena, where horses are encouraged to work in an outline and taught to jump grids and poles. This not only improves their core stability and strength but also prepares them for a successful career beyond racing.

At Plantation Farm, we believe that the welfare and comfort of the horse are of utmost importance. Our stables have open grid partitions and low open fronts, allowing horses to socialise with each other as they would in a natural herd environment. Our barn is equipped with a mechanical ventilation system to ensure excellent airflow, reducing the risk of airway infections. Regular turnout is a priority, keeping our horses fresh and happy.

We offer various syndicate and ownership options for those interested in becoming part of the racing world. Whether you want to join a syndicate, send your horse to train with us, or need assistance in purchasing a racehorse, we are here to help. Our dedicated team, led by Richard Bandey, provides the highest level of care to bring out the best performance on the racecourse.
