Carnesso Lulabelle rising 3 year old. Very sweet wee filly who has the best nature.
Horses had a great time at Duvauchelle A&P Show. So nice to get them on the bench and having fun. They loved it. Leo , Merlin & their show buddy Django.

Carnesso Lulabelle enjoying the sun on her back. Very pleased with this 2 year old filly. It will be interesting to see if she will go park hack or 14.2hh.

Maxis Digest is used on all our equines here at Carnesso Stud. Gut health is so important. We feed this year round.

Gut health is so important. That’s why we feed fibre protect to all our horses all year round. They will also get feed prior to been ridden, travelling, competition or any stressful situation. Understanding the gut and what you are feeding is vital to an any horse/pony. We only feed the best.
DID YOU KNOW??
Did you know the type of forage you feed your horse can directly influence hindgut pH—and overall digestive health?
📊 A 2020 study (Bäuerlein et al., Pferdeheilkunde – Equine Medicine) found:
• Horses fed meadow hay showed no meaningful change in faecal pH (7.0 → 6.65)
• Horses fed lucerne had a significant increase in faecal pH (6.85 → 7.75, p < 0.05)
Why it matters:
✔️ Higher faecal pH = better hindgut buffering
✔️ Supports microbial balance and reduces acidosis risk
✔️ Ideal for horses prone to digestive upset or hindgut imbalance
🌿 FiberProtect is a high-quality lucerne forage, high in fibre—designed to nourish the hindgut and support total digestive wellbeing.
🟢 Backed by research. Trusted by horse owners.

It has been a sad week at Carnesso Stud.
Unfortunately Mannie was put to sleep on Monday at the age of 21. She was a beautiful mare that had achieved so much. Mannie was Charlotte’s first park hack and they won many champions and supremes. Mannie tought Charlotte a lot and they spent many weekends hacking out, beach rides, & jumping.
Amanda Gray and Mannie won Park Hack of the Year in 2012 and competed at Nationals in Werribee , Australia. We have a special friendship with Amanda now.
She was very tricky to get in foal but we were lucky enough to get Merlin out of her. The spitting image of his mum
