Thoroughbreds can do
Mimi’s Ava Joins AVA Productions, Inc.
Phil did not know Mimi’s Ava’s full name when he began the buying process. It soon became clear that Mimi was meant to be his horse when her full name turned out to be the name of Phil’s audio visual company – AVA Productions, Inc. Coincidence or divine intervention?
OTTB Behren’s Design moves to California
He is doing great. It has been raining here since Friday. It is horrible. I hope to have a dry week so I can get him out. Yesterday his hind right leg blew up. I am hoping that is just lack of getting to move around. He seems to be sound on the leg.
OTTB Saxon Warrior Arrives Home Safely!
Saxon Warrior arrived savely at the farm and is enjoying his small pasture turnout. He was immediately quiet on the pasture and never started running. He is a very sweet boy with a great personality, and he really likes people and other horses!…
First Ride on a Fire Breathing Dragon
There were some reservations about me getting a fire breathing dragon that is going to eat small children…I said that job belongs to my pug.

“Max” Needs a Little Reminder from Time to Time
A quick update on “Max” (Maximum Impact). He is doing well and is putting on some weight again. I tell you what – that “girlfriend” is about to drive us nuts because she goes into season and he goes batty because that is his lady…no other horse can get near her. And she is just…
Cortableau – One Month Update
Cortableau handled being in an unfamiliar place at the hunter pace – new horses and different terrain with no problem. We actually had our first canter ever a few minutes into the ride, and we did a couple of canters up hills. So I got braver and, when we got to the really big field, we cantered again.
We’ve Come a Long Way Baby
So I celebrated yet another wonderful year with Irish (Irish Morning Mist) the other day. I brought him his favorite treats and we went on a nice bareback ride with just a lead rope through the pastures.
Young Rachel Alexander Fans
Dr. Kenny Winn has been doing so well! His training is coming along beautifully. The girl that rides him for me twice a week is going to use him in one of her dressage lessons so the trainer can get good look at him. He’s starting to get fit and muscle up with his work routine.
