Thoroughbreds can do
There’s no “I” in Teamwork!
He is such a sweet boy; I am going to have a blast working with him!
Ides Pride May Be Available For Sale
“Seary” (Ides Pride) is doing well, she is back in work and doing really well. We are jumping x-rails about once a week. The rest of our time has been spent on flat work, still trying to move her muscle back up where it belongs as you can see in the pictures I have attached she has a bit of a baby belly.
Who Wins First Combined Test!?
Who’s Cindy Sue aka “Quinn” is starting to really come into herself these days! We won our first combined test last weekend, it was her first outing to an event and it was my first judged dressage test.
Race Horse to Sport Horse Takes Time and Patience
She has been affectionate right from the beginning–which made it so discouraging when she was such a touchy bold forward racehorse for so long with just the presentation of a saddle and bridle—but the last couple of weeks—she is being that big goofy teddy bear puppy dog everywhere now instead of just the times when tack was not involved. She still can get uncertain…and when she does she tries to boldly bluff her way thru like she knows everything there is to know about what she is doing—but is pretty rare of late.
OTTB “Woody” Receives Accolades at New Home

Just Three Weeks Off-the-Track, Marvin is Fabulous!
Marvin is fabulous! Marvin is so adorable that I never want to take a step back to snap a picture. I can ride him up to a gate and he’ll stand quietly while I unlatch it, and doesn’t mind helping me close it after we’ve passed through it. Any day of the week, I can hop on him and walk/trot/canter anywhere I want to go without a care in the world.

Genuinely Happy
I was just checking in and giving you an update on Genuine Draft. We have grown to love this big guy. He is my mom and sister’s barn favorite! He is so sweet and loves people so much! If I am in the barn he would rather be inside with me than turned out in the field. His training has progressed significantly in the last few weeks! He is jumping around small courses and is doing great. I have attatched a few pictures of him in action.
Winter Break
Goldie is so funny in the snow. He and his buddy Ice love the cold weather and and play across the fence all the time. I think they’re getting cabin fever and their blankets are getting the worst of it. That part isn’t funny. Well, only had to snowshoe out to feed twice so I guess it could be worse.
