Stonecrest Stables

Eventing Facility that offers boarding & training. Stonecrest Stables is operated by Matt Kidney.
(16)

Although Matt is well known for his tact and ability when dealing with young or difficult horses, he also aims to produce event horses for competition and sale. His focus when working with the horses and riders in his program is developing correct basics on the flat and confidence over fences. Matt believes that this helps ensure success as both horses and students move up the levels. Matt current

ly has one horse he is actively competing: Fuzion (“Max”) began his eventing career with great success in 2014. After an excellent season at Training level in 2015, concluding with a 2nd place finish in a strong Open Training division at the Hagyard Midsouth Team Challenge at the Kentucky Horse Park, Max successfully upgraded to the Prelim level in 2016. To date, they have had several top 10 finishes and are qualified for a fall CCI*. Matt sold his 2* horse (Iceman/”Sonny”) mid-summer and Sonny has already proven to be an excellent schoolmaster. In addition to training and competing his own horses, Matt also accepts horses on training board, is available for coaching in the Ottawa area, offers quality horses for sale and also competes horses on a “catch-ride” basis.

Heading home from a very educational month in Aiken. Can’t thank Waylon and Jenny Roberts enough for the numerous lessons and help over the month. These trips are not at all possible without the group of people behind us.

A huge thank you to Blair Vance & Alicia Beduhn & Grace Veldkamp & Amanda Dupont & Travis Strong for holding down the fort at home. It was so nice to be away and not worry about a thing

Our incredible vet and farrier- you lads make running these horses at this level a lot easier. Thank you for being the best in the business Dr JD Adams & Johnny Clute

The horses looked incredible thanks to Lauren’s Equine Services ✂️

To Holly & Casey Gillis for letting us borrow your 6 horse trailer so our horses could travel extra comfortable to and from Aiken

See y’all in the spring 🌞
