December 3, 2018 by 1 Comment
The final clinic here in Japan was in Fukuoka, in the South Island of Japan, not far from Korea. It was a completely new group of horses and riders, just because the last clinic was on the main island. It was well attended with four groups of OTTB’s that are already jumping and another group doing dressage. The clinics are jointly hosted by the National Riding Club Association of Japan (NRCAJ), the Japan Racing Association (JRA) and #GodolphinLifetimeCare who pay the cost of attending, and Read more...Boyd’s Japan Diaries: A Day in Hokkaido
November 30, 2018 by 1 Comment
Between the two three-day clinics, Yasuko from Godolphin was kind enough to zip us up to Sapporo, in Hokkaido. I’ve been there 18 years ago when I had a job breaking in horses, so it’s the second time I’ve been there. Hokkaido is famous for having the most open space in Japan and it seems that all of the Thoroughbred breeding and equestrian businesses get started up there. The first stop was Godolphin’s training center where we saw all the yearlings that have been started, and are in Read more...Retraining Racehorses in Japan with Boyd Martin: First Clinic (Gotemba)
November 29, 2018 by 1 Comment
We’ve had a brilliant start to the retired racehorse clinic in Japan, hosted by the National Riding Club Association of Japan (NRCAJ), the Japanese Racing Association (JRA) and Godolphin. The first three days were spent at Gotemba in a beautiful setting at an Equestrian Center right in the shadow of Mount Fuji.
We had four groups of riders each day. The first group was very green and the second and third had been jumping for a year or so. The fourth group was quite advanced, jumping about Read more...Assistant Groom Wanted at Boyd Martin Eventing
November 27, 2018 by Leave a Comment
Boyd Martin Eventing is seeking a hard working person to join the team as assistant groom. The ideal candidate will be punctual, hard working, and have a good attitude. Some days are hot, some are cold, some start at 2am, some end at 11pm (some never actually end). This would be a great opportunity for someone looking to further their knowledge in the sport as well as the management of event horses at every level. Although this is not a glamorous job, it is incredibly rewarding. Prior upper level Read more...

Starting the Young Horses Right

By the first of November all of the major events are done and dusted and I give the bulk of the upper level horses a good month’s vacation. This is a well-deserved rest from the hard, focused training and relentless competition schedule that starts in February. This also means a little less work at the farm since the upper level horses are so time-consuming, so we also use this time to give our staff a holiday intermittently
This is also a good time to break in Read more...Happy Thanksgiving from Windurra

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! We would like to express our gratitude for our friends, family and supporters. Thank you to everyone at our farm who works so hard every day to keep our horses happy and healthy and our farm in top-notch condition. It sometimes feels like a very thankless job, slogging through the mud in the freezing cold, and we are grateful for all of the hours of hard work that everyone puts in to keep things running like a finely tuned instrument. We are also very fortunate to Read more...
