Could go in any direction but should excel in the hunters. Has already been off site. Super cute jump, Changes should be easy and good mover.. She's a steal now in the low mid 5's. Other youngsters available

We had another fantastic day here and a great team finish! Meghan and Vivian had a single unlucky rail but her teammates both had stellar clears. The team finished on a total score of 8 over 2 days which was good enough for silver!! We are in a good position heading into Sunday's individual final and Vivian is looking forward to her rest day tomorrow. Cadogen also stepped in the ring today and won the 1.15m speed track by over 2 seconds 🥇🥈🏆

07/18/2024

We are off and running! Today was a great day for us and Team Shutterfly. Meghan and Vivian led the way with a speedy clear and held the individual lead right until the end and were just barely pushed to second place overall. The other team members scored a second clear and a single rail putting the team in solid position going into tomorrow's team final.

07/17/2024

We are through the jog and ready for the training session! Super excited to be here representing Zone 4 for the 1.20m amateur team championships!

When one foal wants to have social hour and the other just wants to nap... 😂

06/24/2024

Better late than never! We had a blast at Bruce's Field for week I of the summer classic. Huge shout out and congrats to Meghan and Vivian. This pair stepped up to the 1.30m division with style ribboning in both classes over a tough track and tough competition. Proof that all the blood, sweat and tears are worth it! Mercury tried his hand at the 1.10m and seems to have decided the the jumpers is where he wants to be earning a blue ribbon each day. Super excited about his future! Maggie and Yvette continue to rock around the 0.85m and are getting smoother each time. Sale horse Josephina exceeded all our expectations taking in the show life for the first time and even hacked around and jumped a few crossrails. This one could have a very bright future. Contact us about her before the price goes up! We are home now for a little bit but looking forward to our next show in Tryon.

06/10/2024

We are so excited to be heading back to Aiken this week! We will be at Bruce's Field this time and will have this lovely young mare with us and available to be tried. She's 3yo, nicely started and jumping small crossrails. Should make a wonderful hunter but could also be a 3-ring type. She's easy to get along with and has no vices. Low 🖐️'s if she sells soon. Price will increase with training.

We have had a wonderful week here in Tryon. The horses have all stepped up and we are really proud of them. Sale horse Goforth put in some absolutely lovely rounds in the jumpers and moved over to the hunters today. She continues to improve and impress us with her style and versatility. Meghan and Vivian rocked the 1.20m division with just a couple green mistakes keeping them out of the ribbons yesterday and today. This pair has worked incredibly hard and we are so proud of them both and can't wait for the future. Mercury learned more in the last 3 days than should be possible. He jumped around the 1.0m today like he'd been doing it all his life. Finishing with a clear today and yesterday in the 0.90m. Can't wait for the next show!

05/22/2024

We had a fabulous first day here in Tryon. Meghan and Vivian rocked a speedy double clear in the 1.20m for 4th out of 31!! Mercury stepped up to the 1.0m with just a single knockdown. Sale horse Goforth put in a classy round in the 0.90 and is looking more like a 3 ring horse every day!

05/21/2024

We are heading to Tryon tomorrow and will have this pretty girl with us and available to be tried. She has experience to 1.10m and is dabbling in the hunters. Plenty of scope for more and the class to be a great eq horse. Contact us for more info or to set up a trial. Mid 5's.

05/17/2024

Exciting news on one of our homebreds! Anna and Cataldus MM (Cedar - Caprice Z - Chellano Z) have qualified for Regionals at training level. 'Atari' is just 4 this year and Anna has done a beautiful job bringing him along. This pair has been a dream team from the get go and we can't wait to see where the future takes them!!

05/14/2024

Huge congratulations to Meghan on the purchase of Canella MM (Conifer - Josephine - Jus d'O)! We have been keeping it under wraps until it was official. We couldn't be happier that this super special filly gets to stay in the barn with us to grow up! Meghan has been part of our barn family for a long time now and we can't think of a person more deserving or hard working that we would want to have one of our last Conifer babies. Their future is bright. 😎🏇

05/12/2024

Happy Mother's Day to all the animal and human moms out there! We hope you have all had a wonderful and special day

Nelly meeting Max for the first time. She says 'you look like fun. Can we play?' Max says 'Nope' 😂

And a couple more!

Got our pictures back from Aiken. Many thanks to A&S Photography for all the fantastic shots. Great memories of a wonderful week!!

04/27/2024

A little late but so far it's been a fantastic week here in Aiken! Maggie and Yvette finished the week with no jumping faults. Mercury stepped up to the 0.95m with an easy clear today. Meghan and Vivian won their jr/am 1.20m speed class with a clear. Goforth gained valuable experience in the hunter ring with some lovely rounds and finished the week with a clear in the 0.95m. Her round in today's class earned team MM the style of riding award for the week!! We were so excited and proud of this accomplishment. Her future is bright! 😎

04/25/2024

We are off to a great start here in Aiken. Maggie and Yvette marched around their 0.80m class with just a few pesky time faults. Mercury stepped back into the ring with a clear in his 0.85m class. We are waiting for the rest of the horses to go but thought we could share these beautiful pics of Goforth. She is available to be tried all week. Contact us for more info

04/22/2024

Happy Earth Day!! We are grateful for everything that our planet gives us 🍀🌈🌎

04/17/2024

We had our 3rd filly in a row last night. This one just has a little star but she's big and strong. Cuvee's first foal and we can't wait to watch her grow up! Jethro Tull - Cuvee - Cedar. The theme is money/finance and it needs to start with a J!

04/14/2024

Two down, two to go. This adorable filly was born last night. Our first from Matador and we are thrilled! Matador - Clotho - Something Gained. She should be able to do anything and is available. Naming time! Needs to start with an 'M' and the theme is fortune/luck.

04/07/2024

First nap outside. She's super strong already and followed mom out like a champ. Next stop is the big field where she has room to run and play! Hard to believe she's less than 24 hours old

04/07/2024

Our first arrival of the year! Josephine had an enormous filly by Conifer last night. Both mom and baby are doing great. Can't wait to watch her grow. She's already stunning! She will be available

03/12/2024

We had a stellar second week in Aiken and are already looking forward to going back to jump on the grass field! MM finished 🥇🥈🥉 in the welcome with Cadogen as the fastest 4 faulter and Vera a very close second. Meghan and Vivian rounded out the top 3 for the sweep. Vera stepped up for a clear in the mini prix and 2nd place. Cadogen finished in a close 4th. Meghan and Vivian continued the winning streak with the blue in the 1.20m Jr/Am classic. Diva had a successful return to the shows earning a second out of a big division in the USHJA 2'6". She and Amanda stepped into the low adults and while some nerves got in their way, the future is bright for the rest of the season. Photo dump from both weeks and PC and thanks to Tyler Graham Photography for all the great shots!

03/03/2024

We finished our first week in Aiken with great rounds from everyone. Vera and Cadogen each had one unlucky rail in the mini prix but ended up 2nd and 3rd. Kerry and Kate rocked the 1.0m winning all their classes! Maggie and Yvette had a successful return to the show ring finishing with a clear round and blue ribbon in the 0.80m. Looking forward to next week!!

03/01/2024

It's been awhile since we put up any news so our first day of showing seems like a good place to start! We are here in our favorite place in Aiken for the first week of PSJ March Madness. Excel Star Kate rocked around the 1.10m and 1.15m winning both classes. Cadogen won the welcome with the only double clear of the day in the frigid rain. Vera was a game 3rd with a couple of very cheap rails. Looking forward to tomorrow's classes and warmer weather!

12/24/2023

Happy Christmas Eve!! Vivian is hoping that Santa fills her stocking with lots of carrots, treats and anything else she might be able to eat! 🎄🎄

11/29/2023

We got our pictures back from our week at Duke. PC and many thanks for all the great shots to Anne Gittins Photography. Can't wait to go back next year!

11/23/2023

From our family to yours. We wish you a wonderful and peaceful day surrounded with family and friends. We are so very grateful for all of our friends, family and clients both human and animal alike. Cheers 🥂

11/20/2023

Our final day here at Duke was a success. Vivian and Meghan jumped their biggest track yet to a solid 4th place at 1.25m. She followed that with a 5th in the high ch/ad classic with Goforth at 1.15. Also her biggest track. We couldn't be prouder of everyone this week especially the horses and so grateful to be able to show at this wonderful venue. We can't wait to come back next year!

First time out!

Well hello there!! 😀

Cadogen on his way to 5th in the Mini Prix

Martin enjoying some snuggles after a good ride!

U-Turn

Turnip on her way to a 3rd place finish in the Mini Prix. She was the fastest horse in the class, just unlucky at the last. So proud of her and grateful to her sire Mr. Wizard for giving us such a wonderful mare

Porter

Here is Porter working on his dressage. Check him out on our sales page. He is the perfect partner for an amateur looking to do a little dressage, jumping, eventing, or foxhunting (or all of the above!) Great temperament.

Lincoln Russell sent this video clip of Cedar schooling yesterday. Thanks to him and his team for the great job they are doing. We're looking forward to watching Cedar and his offspring in the show ring this year. Can't wait for Countach to grow up!

Electra Rose

Here is our 2yo by Something Gained and out of Zephyr Lily. She is Zephyr's first foal and we are pretty happy with her. She is going to be a super girl. She has an amazing temperament and is very easy to work around. She has the gaits to be a dressage horse and the pedigree to be an amazing jumper or event horse. Contact us for sales details!

U-Turn

Turnip marched around her first Grand Prix at the Tryon Summer Series Horse Show! She prepped with a 4th place in the 1.35m earlier in the week. We are very proud of her stepping up and can't wait for her next outings. She continues to wow us with her athleticism in spite of her small stature.

Double Run

Here is our Mezcalero filly free jumping for the first time. She is super quiet and laid back. So easy to work with. She looks like she could do anything but may like being a hunter. She definitely has a bay gelding attitude and we haven't seen any signs of red headed mare in her!

Mercury

Here is U-Turn's little brother free jumping for the first time. He is quite a good mover and looks like he is going to mature into just as good a jumper as his big sister Contact us for sales inquires

Cuda

Here is Cedar's first under saddle and free jumping. He is the sweetest and most level headed 4yo we have ever had! Super easy to work with and a great athlete on top of that.

Cimento

Here is some footage of Cimento hacking around and free jumping. He is going to be a super nice hunter. He loves having the reins floated to him and has natural changes. He had never done changes under saddle until this video was done!
