It was a great week for GPH! We went 3 for 3, bringing home 3 champion/reserve championships with 3 seperate horse + rider pairs. And for 2 of these horses, this was their first ever year showing! Talk about some amazing animals!

It was a great year with a great association, and we already look forward to next. Thank you to Martha + Stephen Vogelsang for the opportunity to ride + train such athletes, and for your unwavering support.

We would also like to thank and wish Callie a HUGE congratulations on her wins. She stepped into her (and her mare’s) first year showing with confidence and grit and it sure paid off. She’s the glue that holds us together, and we could not be happier for her!

We are absolutely ecstatic to announce that #𝐇𝐞𝐬𝐀𝐒𝐭𝐲𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐲𝐞𝐫 is your 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟑 Stock Horse of Texas 𝐉𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐨𝐫 𝐇𝐨𝐫𝐬𝐞 𝐀𝐥𝐥-𝐀𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝 𝐘𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐄𝐧𝐝 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐦𝐩𝐢𝐨𝐧!!!

Earning a custom Martin Saddlery Saddle, Pl***oy has absolutely blown us away with not only winning his VERY first show season, but how he handled it as well. This horse truly loves going to work and being in the show pen, and we look forward to seeing these traits passed down to his offspring.

In addition to his year end title, Pl***oy had a very successful World Show where he finished 4th overall, accumulating additional wins in the reining and stock horse pleasure throughout the week. With scores in the mid to high 70’s, to say we are looking forward to his future in the show pen would be an understatement!

Be sure to consider him for your 2024 breeding season!

It looks like our 2 year old CeCe has definitely enjoyed her time off after being started earlier this year!

Soon she will start it all back up and hopefully make her way into the Futurity pen next year. We again can’t thank the Worley family enough for allowing us to own this nice little mare.

Spencer Gray and 𝘿𝙖𝙧𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙜𝙨 𝙋𝙡𝙖𝙮𝙢𝙖𝙩𝙚 took home third in the Level One Open All-Around, and second in the VRH All-Around, adding a nice little chunk to Playmates LTE. This mare is nothing but heart and it’s always a pleasure to spend a weekend showing with her.

Callie Goins and 𝙉𝘿 𝙎𝙝𝙚’𝙨 𝙎𝙤 𝘽𝙚𝙡𝙡𝙖 continued to make progress together and be consistent in their great showing to take home third in the Level One Novice All-Around, which included two second place finishes in both the Stock Horse Trail and Pleasure. We cannot express how proud we are of Callie in not only her work with Bella but her aspirations and work ethic in general. She’s one in a million and we are so blessed to have her on our team!

Spencer Gray and Hes A Stylish Player went on the win the Junior Horse Reining and finish 8th in the All-Around. Pl***oy made some beautiful runs and we continue to be impressed with his ability and demeanor in the show pen. Very much looking forward to seeing these traits passed on to his babies!
