With 2 national stud farms (Haras du Pin and Saint-Lô), 4500 breeders, countless competitions and pioneering facilities, Normandy really is the horses land. New riders and stable owners flock here every year for its mild climate (ideal for horses) and all the infrastructures that call the region home. Normandy is the only region to produce countless champions in harness racing, gallop racing and sport.

Amy Graham is a showjumper from Australia. She moved to Brévands in Manche in 2013 and opened a stable here.

There are lots of reasons why I decided to come to Normandy: space for my horses, quality of life and to breed Normandy horses, many of which have competed at major events.

As for Scott Smith, he’s “just” crossed the Channel. The former showjumper on the British team bought a farm near Saint-Lô where he breeds Selle Français horses.

We think that Normandy is the French equine capital. We decided to breed Selle Français horses because they're perfect for modern sports and we've already had great success with our horses.
