Rakaunui Farm was established in 1993 when we established a small number of well bred and performed Warmblood mares of Hannoverian breeding with which we intended to breed outstanding youngstock. In 1995 we were offered the opportunity to stand the lovely Trakehner stallion Loewenherz. Now with the opportunity of using the Trakehner stallion Loewenherz we started following concepts in use in Europe where the use of Trakehner stallions over other European Warmblood breeds is a common and accepted way of adding quality to their type. From this origin we have gone on to produce purebred Trakehners alongside our New Zealand Warmbloods. Our ultimate goal with our horses is to produce youngsters that have:

1. Outstanding temperament and trainability
2. Excellent conformation and
3. Quality over Quantity
