Simple steps to help fight the nerves and enjoy your time in the show ring. A great easy read for anyone who has ever felt those butterflies when you walk into the show ring.

Sport psychologist Mario Soto shares key takeaways to combat nerves and improve performance.
So excited for Chloe & Michelle Panos. Chloe rocked it aboard Corey this year in the walk/trot ring. And now Corey will be Chloe's for the next year. It's going to be so fun to watch Chloe grow under Corey's guidance! Congrats Chloe!!!

Congratulations to Cameron Gill on her lease of Carismo (Holsteiner Gelding by Casiro). Looking forward to seeing this pair step into the show ring! Thanks Chad Keenum for finding us another great horse.

The pair was sitting in 5th overall....they laid down a really great trip....and accidentally (just barely) crossed the dotted line in the closing circle. Even worse....the camera man left his post and there is no video footage of her great round.
At the end of the day Biscuit and Zoey were amazing and that’s all we ever want. We are so thankful for all those who helped us to get here and to those cheering for us here and at home.
Biscuit is ready for his next kid and can be tried in KY. Message us for more information on this very special pony.
Teamwork - that sums up the Aug I show at BEST. From last minute catch rides to loading trailers in a thunderstorm, to the in-gate crew texting us to make sure we knew the ring status in Sue's absence - the list goes on and on. Thank you all!

She had so much fun! And a huge Congrats to Gummy (Crowd Pleaser) and Bettina on a great Devon! We enjoyed cheering for you and your ponies.
Quinn Haven traveled south to the Virginia Horse Center for the Keswick Horse Show. With only 3 riders and horses it made for one relaxing horse show! There was some tough competition - Kaylee nailed her classic trip with an 87 for a second place finish while Kinsley came home as Reserve Champion in the Small/Medium Ponies and Katie put in good trips for good ribbons. 🌻
May BEST II had less rain but plenty of puddles. Our riders and horses had some great improvements from the first week. Incredibly proud of our team and very grateful for our grooms! 🌻

The 2nd Annual QHS In-House Horse Show was a smashing success. A huge thanks to Charmaine Kospiah for all her help before, during and after the show. Kimberly Hagler-Garrido and Matt Norris for feeding us along with Danielle Cattano for running the barn. To Lynn Peaper and Next Step Realty South who provided amazing prizes for our competitors. Zoey and Chase rocked the announcer job and thanks to our Judge Ross Payne, fairly certain he had the hardest job choosing between all those amazing rounds. And the biggest thanks to all our parents - we really have the best barn family! 🌻
It's always a good time with the McDonogh Horse Show Management Team! The QHS horses, ponies and riders all had an excellent weekend.

We made the decision to stay home and were grateful to see that BEST Horse Shows canceled the show. It's hard when everyone has worked hard and is looking forward to the first show of the series. However, it was an easy decision to make as our horse's health and welfare will always come first.
On Air took a look at his winning classic trip and had a few things to say...
