Hackney Brags

Below are some amazing Hackney Horses and their owners. See what you could do with a Hackney Horse !

Here’s our very own Dunroth’s Coalition                                doing her best at the age of 3. Ed Murray is the whip.

Kimberly Fishman of Hackney Horse & Carriage is seen with Koopman’s Dokter Parader and Koopman’s Zwarte Piet at a beautiful wedding held in Bodega Bay, CA. Pete and Doc were also used to transport race officials during the LA County Fair, at the Fairplex Park as well as Santa Anita Racetrack. Truly a beautiful pair of elderly statesmen.
