Happy Birthday, Zuma! 🎂✨

Gone, but never forgotten.🌈🦄

You would have been four years young today, no doubt ready to strut your stuff. Full of life, attitude, and fun, you were bred to rein and shine, and you certainly had all the goods.

You were the first, but certainly not the last, bred from some very special proven bloodlines. Your brother is now getting set to make the debut that should have been yours, and we know you'll be watching over him every step of the way.

I like to think your Dad (Ace) is taking good care of you up there, although knowing you, you're probably running rings around him by now🤣

We miss you every day and will never forget you. Your little sister is looking like she's going to be pretty super shiny too, carrying on the legacy you left behind.🫶🥰

You left us far too soon, but what a privilege it was to know and love you. Thank you for the smiles, the dreams, and the memories.
Until we meet again, beautiful girl. ❤️🐴

Forever loved. Forever missed. Forever remembered. ✨🤍

For Ace ❤️ 🐴 ✨

Not a day goes by that you aren't on my mind, Ace, or missed more deeply than words can truly express. 💔 🥹

You were one of those rare horses that only come along once in a lifetime. A horse with heart ❤️, talent 🌟, presence ✨, and a way of leaving an imprint on everyone fortunate enough to know you. Even in the few seasons you spent in New Zealand with Catherine Ladd, you proved exactly how special you were. You made your mark in the arena 🏆, but more importantly, you made your mark on SnS Quarter Horses ❤️ 🐴.

Although you left us in 2023 🌈, your legacy is far from over. It lives on through the foals you left behind 🐴 💕, each carrying a little piece of you forward. As your SnS progeny begin stepping into the show pen, we find ourselves filled with both excitement and emotion 🥹 ❤️.

No moment will capture that more than when JD makes his debut. I know there will be tears alongside the smiles 😊 as we watch him, seeing so much of you reflected back at us 🥰 🐴. It will be one of those truly bittersweet moments where we miss you terribly 💔, yet feel your presence all at once ❤️✨.

Horses like you are few and far between. 🌟 You can never be replaced, nor would we want you to be. What we can do is remember you, honour you, and celebrate the incredible horse you were 🙏❤️. That is a promise I will always keep. 🤍

Today brings another special memory 🎂 🎉, as your firstborn, Zephyr, turns four years old. How fitting that he shares the same birthday as his dad. 🎈 ❤️
Bred and owned by Tina Angus and Keith Baker, Zephyr is a wonderful tribute to you. 🐴 💕 Tina has done an incredible job, putting in the miles, time, and dedication to develop this special young horse into a talented and versatile all-round partner. 🌟 👏 Watching him grow has been a joy, and seeing your qualities shine through in him makes your legacy feel even more alive. ❤️ ✨

Happy Birthday, Ace & Zephyr. 🎂 🐴 ❤️ 🎉

You may no longer be here, however your influence, your bloodlines, your spirit ✨, and the memories you gave us will live on for generations to come. 🌹 ❤️ We miss you every day, remember you always 🥹 💕, and look forward to watching your offspring carry your story forward. 🐴 🌟

Gone too soon but never forgotten. 💔 🌈 🐴 ✨ ❤️
Forever in our hearts. 🤍 💕

Mum left him unattended for five minutes while helping with a "quick" job (which somehow turned into an hour and a half 🤪) and Zephyr decided to reorganise the tack room for Tina 😂.
Not quite the help Tina had in mind, but points for enthusiasm! 🤦‍♀️🐴❤️

This album has been a little neglected… apologies Tina & Keith 🫣✨ Where has that time gone!!

The wonderful Zephyr is now officially under saddle 🎉🐎, with a short, gentle start from James Hazeldine at GB Stud/ J& J Training👏

What a special boy he is 💫 Zephyr was an added gift from the very beginning, being the first of Ace’s crop born on Ace’s birthday 🎂♠️… a pretty incredible way to start his journey! ✨

Tina has now climbed aboard her beautiful young boy 💕 and taken over the riding reins, giving Zephyr every opportunity to experience life at his own pace 🌿🐴 in the best possible environments, and alongside her riding partner, her gorgeous daughter Cheyenne 🥰
There’s truly nothing like Mumma & Daughter riding time 💖👩‍👧🐎

Zephyr is Ace’s eldest progeny, out of Tina’s lovely homebred QH mare Phoenix 🌟, who is the daughter of their great mare Bijou 💫 and just like that, the next generation begins for their family 🙌

They’ve already been on so many adventures together 🗺️✨, and now their journey moves into Phase 2 🚀 We can’t wait to see Tina’s updates and where this path takes them!

Zephyr is proving to be such a willing, happy partner 😊🐎, really enjoying this next chapter of his young journey 🌱

SnS Quarter Horses wish them all the very best 💕 and promise we’ll do a MUCH better job of sharing their journey with you all! 😄

And remember… if you want an all-rounder, versatile horse…
👉 Always Keep an Ace Up Your Sleeve ♠️🐎✨
