Chai. Can you be any more perfect?! This mare was destined to be a show horse. Second time off property, at her second horse show and she was a gem. Stall to ring, zero prep. No spook. No funny business. Amazing work ethic and just aims to please. Confirmed changes. Goes in a snaffle. And barefoot. Great in the barn. Loads and trailers like a dream. She is just stunning to look at on the ground and under saddle. Who’s looking for their partner?! 😍😍
Chai’s first ride is in the books. This mare is going to be a hunter deluxe in the making. 😍😍
♥️🦄♥️ Talk about a unicorn in the making! ♥️🦄♥️
Persuade aka Percy, 2021, 15.1+ TB gelding
Brandywine MD
This guy has absolutely blown me away with his demeanor, willingness to please and his smarts. Less than a dozen rides post track and this baby has taken to everything like he’s an old pro. Percy field tripped to a horse show last weekend and was so well behaved. He flatted around the senior pleasure unbothered by the horses in the ring and he trotted his first ever 18” course without batting an eye. Percy has three LOVELY gaits and a very balanced way of going. More whoa than go. His brain is unbeatable - he’s an old soul, perfect first restart type. No vices. No unsoundness. Currently barefoot. His RF ankle does sport a small blemish which poses no limitations, X-rays are available. Percy is RRP eligible for 2024.

This guy is just the cutest! Welcome Percy (JC Persuade) as our newest addition. Percy’s first ride at the farm was very uneventful. Stay tuned for more details!
This little mare is just so, so cool! First horse show, first real course and she was foot perfect. I’m so excited I get to develop this one! #rrp2024
George W had a great start to our show season. This horse is anything but easy - he’s strong, he’s big, he’s a chicken… but this course is one of the most rideable and responsive courses he’s ever done. So extremely proud of this guy and how far he’s come.

Bandit Queen aka Thelma
2021 15.1 1/2 TB mare
Thelma is just so adorable! In your pocket, squeeze her cheeks and feed her peppermints kind of adorable. Thelma is super easy going and a more ‘whoa’ than ‘go’ type. She wasn’t much phased in her free lunge session nor did she want to reminisce about the race track. Shes a lovely mover with a hunter type presence. I would imagine she would be an easy restart for an ammie or a junior.
Thelma retired from the track in December 2023 with 5 starts and making a whopping $1700. Thelma is currently being advertised as ‘not restarted’ due to the winter weather. Thelma is vice free and retired sound.

Mr Connecticut aka Elbee is a 2018, 16h TB gelding.
Lover Boy aka LB aka Elbee is just that…. he enjoys all of the attention and all of the affection. He has a quiet personality with a bit of goofiness on the side. Elbee is an old soul. He’s the same ride every day. He’s not spooky. He’s not ‘up’. He’s not ‘naughty’. He’s a solid citizen who enjoys having a job. He’s not lazy, he’s not forward - he’s that perfect combination. Being an ex-steeplechaser, he’s brave and honest to the fences but incredibly respectful. Elbee jumps around in a loose ring snaffle. He understands his job. He’s got a lovely jump. Elbee’s flatwork is also coming along - he’s understanding contact and how to use his body. He’s got a big floaty step. Elbee is truly a junior or ammie’s dream - he’s consistent yet fun. Elbee retired sound off the track after 15 starts and earning $105k. He is by Lemon Drop Kid out of Distorted Love (Distorted Humor). Elbee is eligible for RRP 2024.

Sneak Peek! What a first great ride at the farm for Crown! It’s chilly, it’s windy, it’s drizzly… he couldn’t have been more willing or agreeable. Now it’s time to get that booty back in shape! #Topcatscrownsvs
George. Doing all the George things.
Miss Buffy… being perfect. Thanks Katy Hanlon for piloting!
Jackie and Benny. After a few months of ‘back to basics’ they got to pop over a few jumps in their lesson. The confidence and communication has improved ten-fold between this pair! Benny is not an easy ride by any means, but this goober truly loves to work and loves to please. Slow and steady wins the race and they are well on their way.
Prepping for Culpeper. George has really come into his own this year and has gained so much confidence this show season. Excited to see what showing brings at Culpeper next week!
Campari. It’s amazing what some maintenance and a good shoe job will do. You’re SO DREAMY!! Now it’s ‘go’ time, let’s pack on the fitness!
Buffy Longfellow took everything in stride at Culpeper this week. This mare is SO LOVELY! Thank you @allison._.jeffries for catch riding the princess! Btw - she’s looking for a new human!
George W making good work in the 1.15m at Culpeper this past week. George has really upped his game. He’s confident. He’s willing. He’s happy to do his job.
