The election is over….promises of new things in the future….as well as the holidays!! What would be better than a nice horse under the Christmas tree for YOU or the rider in your family? Pick horseback riding over all other sports! This is still the sport that you can ride, drive and compete from 4 to 82 (wasn’t that the age when Helen Crabtree went to her last show—I’m sure that I will be fact checked for that)! Come out and see the horses that I have available from $10k on up!
Look through all my videos again and call or text me at (312) 213-6195.

My heart goes out to Marilou Wilschke on her loss of Wonmore's Diamond Legacy. He was one of my favorite ponies of all time. We could drive him all over at any show, drive him on the trails....he was the best. I could take him to horse shows and body clip/show clip him in the stall, always untied. He would go anywhere, do anything, and yet, be the show pony that we all wished we could own and drive. Just like that, he was here a superstar and then just yesterday, joined the stars in the heavens. My heart is so sad, as I was so lucky to have been able to have been in this pony's life for so long. Thank you, Marilou, for entrusting me to be with this pony for so many years. He was the best.

I just wanted to thank everyone at the Iowa State Fair for giving me the opportunity to judge the Society Horse Show this year. I had a blast! The venue was fun, the facilities were nice and the staff that runs the horse show did an incredible job. And, I got a small bit interview and got to do a small voice over for Iowa PBS when they covered the show. All good fun!!

Sheer excitement and unmatched elegance is on display in the Society Horse Show at the Jacobson Exhibition Center.

Good morning! I have a lot of nice horses available for sale at the Mid-America Horse Show Association Signature Horse Show.
A beautiful bay horse that drives and would make a great western pleasure horse.
A beautiful chestnut pleasure mare that is fully equitated, but could be shown in English Pleasure or Country Pleasure. Winner of many equitation classes.
A nice horse for your first time horse owner. 3 gaited or 5 gaited. Show or Country. Even equitates! Bomb proof!
A nice, nice hunt seat horse that is just the best to ride and show. Fully equitated.
A fun chestnut pleasure gelding for a rider that wants something fun and sporty to ride. Country or English pleasure.
And, the best park pleasure gelding that is incredibly gifted and fun to ride.
All of them are at the Signature Horse Show! Stop by and visit or yank my chain when I’m at the fence!

Kudos to this young lady….only riding this horse about 6 or 7 times, and attempting the Amateur Park Class at Lexington Junior League. Second place vote in the qualifier. Need I say more? We were so proud:)
