With freshly aerated, and always irrigated footing- we hope to provide the best going possible.
Dressage will all be in our new 200x300 fiber footed arena.
The derby consists of a dressage test followed by 6-8 stadium jumps that lead immediately into 12-14 cross country questions. All will be designed and decorated with Ocala HT and beyond in mind.
Levels Ameoba (18” max and walk/trot dressage) to prelim/training are offered, as well as any dressage test of choice.

Grid of the Week
Did you know our stadium arenas are also available for schooling? We will now be offering “Grid of the Week” in the fiber footing arenas, featuring grids, skinnies, angles, ground pole exercises, etc. A small exercise is currently set up in the upper arena, and the show jumping course from our May schooling show is also still up in the lower arena!! Courses will be changed on Monday- and next week’s exercise is inspired by our most recent clinician, Lucinda Green!!

XC Schooling
Sometimes things go according to plan... and sometimes they don't. Come work out the kinks on our XC schooling course - we are open every day!
Who would have guessed it was their first time in the water!? After a little encouragement from his friends he trotted right in happy as could be with Melissa Pinson! So great having a water complex that is great for horses of all levels
Love seeing the progression of horses with just one day of schooling! This horse started out not wanting to go in the water and finished relaxed and confident cantering through! Nicely done Ashley Wallace☺️
