Meet our Horses
Our horses are of local breeds (Sandalwood, Sumba) crossed with Australian or New Zealand Thoroughbred, all born in Indonesia. Our robust horses have different personalities and temperaments but in general are curious and friendly, and amazingly sure-footed. All our horses go barefoot, and are trained without the use of bit or spurs, or any other means of force.
April Chestnut filly (28 April, 2016), Fitri x Indonesian TB.
Our gorgeous little mare Fitri, born in the herd at Havana Horses in 2008, in 2016 gave birth to April - in the photo below April stands on the left. A tremendously pretty young mare, just as energetic as her mother, and with the same open and eager character as her grandfather, Super!
ChaCha
Dun palomino mare (2007), Indonesian Sumba pony.
ChaCha is cheeky ChaCha! When the owners of ChaCha moved to Spain they decided to board her at Havana Horses to enjoy natural herd life for the rest of her life! ChaCha is, next to being very pretty, amazingly patient with the young riders - however, never losing that spark!
Donovan
Grey gelding (April 14, 2006, passport), Local TB.
He came to live with us when he was only one month old, and since then has given us quite some food for thought and many valuable lessons - being a very clever and sensitive, but also dominant horse with a range of physical issues. Donovan essentially is a bomb proof, trustworthy and very good riding horse. An uncountable number of people have learned from him during the years! Besides, Donovan is the ideal photo model for video and photo shoots!
Fargo Brown-black gelding (September 7, 2018), local TB.
This promising young gelding was born in a racing stable and now enjoys herd life to the fullest. He is big buddies with young Wulan. Now that he is almost 6 he still needs a bit more time to grow strong and balanced, both physically and mentally. With a good basic of straightness training, bringing his weight more back and getting more balanced right and left, we are now starting ridden work with him. Being very curious, kind and calm, Fargo surely is a charming horse!
Fitri Chestnut mare (September 23, 2008), Sandalwood Super Emas x Local TB.
Our first born in the herd at Havana Horses, Fitri has grown into an independent, clever and very sensitive mare, incredibly energetic, sure-footed and light on her feet. She is the mother of beautiful April! Fitri knows how to carry her body with balance and pride. Moreover, she is a great teacher at liberty as she loves to connect with people. How she takes after her father, Super!
Lucky One Chestnut gelding (2009), Indonesian Warmblood.
Lucky One has come a long way...! Born in a box, separated from his mother at a too young age, trained too young too fast and too harsh - at the age of 7 he was labelled 'a crazy horse, unmanageable and untrainable' as he kept protesting. When he arrived at Havana Horses he was so terrified of people that when you just looked at him from 5 meters distance, he would already rear and run away. It took years of patience and building trust with our consistent and gentle approach, but now Lucky One is one of our best horses! You know, the 'difficult' horses, are the clever ones, the best ones! He is extremely sensitive and therefore an awesome teacher!
Matahari Chestnut mare (2008), Indonesian TB.
Pretty mare Matahari has quite a history. She has been living at Havana Horses since she was 4 years old and has been the lead mare of the Havana Horses herd for years and years. At one point, however, she decided there were enough suitable canditates for female leadership and she took a step back, giving Sandy the opportunity to take over the role of the lead mare. Then, she changed ownership and moved someplace else where she foaled Wulan in October 2020. When we visited her we found her in such an emaciated state, that she couldn't produce milk for her baby of 3 months at that time. We decided to take her and her foal home. Matahari is still recovering from malnourishment and bad hoof care, but luckily her beautiful baby boy, Wulan, has recovered well and is doing just fine!
Moose Bay gelding (2016), Thoroughbred Indonesia.
We feel so fortunate having Moose in our herd! He is a modest, very sweet giant! Coming from a stabled life on shoes, having issues with colic and wind sucking, in June 2024 he moved to Havana Horses and is now adapting to a natural barefoot life in the herd. He is loving every minute of it! Especially playing with Fargo is his favorite pasttime. Colic and wind sucking belong to the past!
Sandy Bay mare (2010), Indonesian miniature pony.
What a delightful pretty mini pony she is, clever and strong. Did you know she is currently the lead mare of the herd? Oh, and she is oh so sweet and patient with the very young riders!
Super Emas Chestnut gelding (2003), Indonesian Sandalwood.
We bought him all these years ago as a "Super Sandalwood", and when the sun shines on his coat it looks golden, (emas); that is why we call him Super Emas. Under his wise and patient leadership, the Havana Horses herd is a peaceful, happy and healthy herd. He is indeed our Super pony: safe with beginners; patient with intermediates, and wise with advanced riders. Whether it is dressage, jumping, racing, or on the trail, he is Super good at it...! Moreover, he is the proud grandfather of April!
Wulan Bay colt (October 1st, 2020), Indonesian TB.
We are thoroughly delighted with Wulan! Wulan had a bad start in a box but since we rescued him together with his mommy Matahari, he now is happily growing up in the Havana Horses' herd. He is having the best natural life, barefoot, bitless, free! How he loves to play with his buddies Fargo, and Moose!
