For the Wilson Sisters, there’s a lot more to equines than just horsing around!
Beyond the trials of pony club and competitive showjumping, For the Love of Horses is a story about their efforts to train wild Kaimanawa horses.
Interestingly, this year, 2014 Equidays in Hamilton partnered with Kaimanawa Heritage Horses to launch New Zealand’s first wild horse challenge, in which Kelly and her sisters Vicki and Mandy took part. They were among 25 leading horse trainers competing to highlight the talent and trainability of wild Kaimanawas.

But long before this, it was seeing beyond these magnificent horses’ fiery eyes and shaggy coats to the potential beneath, that set the sisters on their quest to develop future champions.
