With a focus on providing a natural, social, and structured lifestyle for stallions, Loose Reins Stallion Station brings an innovative approach to the management of dual-purpose stallions—those aiming to excel both in breeding and competition.
The station is designed exclusively for stallions, with no mares on site, allowing the horses to thrive in an environment tailored specifically to their needs.
“At Loose Reins, we believe in creating an environment that promotes the natural instincts and social behaviours of stallions while minimizing the stress caused by mares, all while nurturing their breeding potential and competitive careers,”
“Our purpose-built paddocks and facilities, alongside our experienced team, provide specialized care that allows each stallion to reach their full potential, whether in the breeding shed or on the competition stage.”
Yasmin Wilkes – Co-founder of Loose Reins Stallion Station
In addition to its specialised facilities, Loose Reins Stallion Station is supported by a highly knowledgeable team of professionals—including physiotherapists, veterinarians, dentists, and an expert farrier—ensuring that each stallion remains in top physical condition.
Co-founder Sam Wilkes, said farrier, brings extensive experience in keeping stallions performing at their best through expert hoof care.

Don Dante x Weltmeyer x Brentano
2018 AES Black
Domino has been lightly competed, and is already showing his quality, with scores of 76.6% at Premier League International 5yo qualifier, with much more to come. He shows incredible lateral suppleness and is now developing his strength behind and becoming a very exciting prospect for the future. He has an incredible temperament to go alongside his talent, which is his highlight. He is traffic proof, lives on a busy glamping site, the same after covering, and great with all animals and children. But whilst being laid back and chilled, he is still an absolute performer under saddle and showing he has the brain for the top.
Sire – Don Dante is a fabulous son of Dancier, known for passing on excellent temperaments, rideability along with looseness and elasticity in the paces. Don Dante successfully competed at Grand Prix and International Small Tour with great success!
Dam – Windermere is a daughter of the legendary Weltmeyer, and foundation mare Hawtins Brentano. She is full sister to International GP horse, Wurlizer under Alice Oppenheimer, and maternal sister to the dam of highly decorated international small tour horse and WBYCH finalist, Hawtins Lirica.
