Wee Barbarella (Benecio x Finest) had a great first show! Winning High Point & getting scores comfortably into the 70’s is a great way to kick off a show career. The judge pulled us to the side at the end of a class & said, “WOW.” So excited for her future!

Oh also, I realized right before going into my first class as we cruised around the warm up, sweet Bunny had literally NEVER been ridden outside before 🤦🏼‍♀️ What a great young mare. 🥂🩷

Photo shoot for Horse & Rider Boutique & De Niro Boots. I happened to have Barbarella out when the photographer showed up, so wee Bunny got to be part of the photos!

Love the boots tho: the fit is so good, they feel already broken in, and I *love the elegant blue sparkle atop the polished black. Will look great in the show ring. 🤩

Fitzerella nailing transitions in & out of piaffe/passage, Lagerfeld’s first trip around the indoor arena & baby Avicii’s first ride on the longe!

We just came for the swag. Except Elise, who apparently came to party. Thanks Utah Dressage Society for the fun prizes & party vibes.

We are over the moon to add this special mare to the Revel Ranch training & breeding program. Fitzerella combines For Romance & Lauries Crusader lines, bringing fantastic scopey movement and a non-stop work ethic.

She had a rough go on her flight over but now that she’s out of quarantine, she can truly recover. Keep your eyes peeled for big things from Fitzerella 🤩

Special thanks to the Fitzerella Partners for making this possible. You know who you are 👀🥂

4yo Barbarella (Benecio x Finest) showing us some small-horse power 🤩 Schooling with Christophe Theallet this weekend.

Great time today taking the young horses out for a little schooling show! Barbarella at 90 days under saddle scored comfortably in the mid-70’s (and the judge told us it would have been mid-80’s with a little tidying up,) and she was SO brave! Didn’t bat an eye at the new place & all the accoutrement of a local show. Rorpario & Elise crushed it also, securing class victory with lots of 8’s in their test. Such a fun day! 🦾🥂🫶🏽

Today we are grateful for our 7yo Finest x Sandro Hit mare getting stronger in these tough transitions! Collected trot - baby passage - piaffe - collected trot - medium trot to a stretchy trot with one hand 🫶🏽🦾

If you know this horse, you will understand what a *huge accomplishment this open throatlatch and honest reach through the back are!! Ditto for the quiet rideability you see in the tempi changes. He is all heart, this guy, never stops trying. 💖 His only flaw is that he tries too hard (and then gets completely out of sorts as he tries to charge about!)

Days 1 & 2 of the show, nerves got the best of him, but by day 3, we figured out our warmup & scored 69% in his Intermediate 1 test.

Looking forward to the future with sweet Dante. 💜🥂

We can’t overstate how proud we are of this mare: Emeres (UB40 x Idocus,) in her first PSG, scoring over 70% from 2 different judges in Colorado a couple of weeks ago.

Outside of some very nice scores, the comments from the judges ranged from “a pleasure to watch,” to “what an incredible mare: I love her kind & trusting expression,” which really sums up how we feel about her.

She’s still getting stronger in the work & we are already excited for next steps. See you guys out there next year. 🥂🦾🫶🏽 (not included, pictures of me crying while we exit the arena 💖)

We made a "behind the scenes" training video on helping a talented mare get stronger & more correct in simple & flying changes! Listen as we discuss how we use exercises & her body position to help her develop more evenly left & right.

This is a 4th level mare with an inconsistent foundation, coming back into work. Listen as we discuss how we use exercises & her body position to help her de...
