welcome

McIntosh Stables is situated at the picturesque Portola Valley Training Center, home to over 200 horses, and located a few minutes off the 280 freeway in Menlo Park Ca.

Colin and Toni McIntosh have an extensive background in all things equestrian, each offering many years of experience, having first competed as Eventers and then as Showjumpers to the highest levels.
As trainers, Colin and Toni have trained riders who have successfully gone on to represent New Zealand at International level.
Beyond the saddle, Colin and Toni have organized leading horse shows in New Zealand, including Olympic and World Championship qualifying events. They have also been involved in the establishment of the Equestrian Coaching Program in New Zealand.

Colin’s daughter Samantha (Sam McIntosh Show Jumpers) operates her jumper business out of Germany. She is currently among the worlds top computer ranked jumper riders and is an invaluable European contact for McIntosh Stables. On a recent trip to Florida to compete in the Wellington Horse Show, Samantha placed 2nd in the USA Jumper Classic and was consistently the highest placed European based rider.

Colin and Toni’s lives are 'all about horses' and when not involved in training or showing, they take time to travel on buying trips - always on the lookout for horses which might meet their clients needs.
