We brought five horses to the Working Equitation Clinic last weekend, and they all were just amazing. Thank you Alberto Conde, Katherine Chilkott , and Woodmyst Farms for a great time!
It was really nice to see so many of our WE friends participating and auditing. Looking forward to next time.

Getting ready for a great day of Lusitano horses and Working Equitation. What a gorgeous morning!

We haven't had a lot of chances to show this year, so we were so happy to get Usar and Lorca out to do some Working Equitation at Oserilea last month. It was a beautiful venue and, as always, the WE crowd is such a friendly and supportive group of people! Looking forward to more!

Lustiano Lorca J*P competed in his first Working Equitation show last month. I just love this lead change coming off the bridge in the Speed phase.
Lorca is made for this sport! Contact Jack Burns for more information about Lorca and other APSL Luistanos available for your consideration in Santa Rosa, CA

For your consideration
Stunning 9-Year-Old APSL Lusitano Gelding – Lorca

Lorca is ready to make your equestrian dreams come true. Standing at 15.2 hands, Lorca combines athleticism, agility, and an irresistible charm that will captivate any rider.

Located in Petaluma, CA. Middle five figures.

Loyal, people-loving, and highly expressive.
A joy to ride with a fun and forward attitude.

Shown second level, green flying lead changes and a beautiful medium trot. Schooling the working equitation obstacles. Happy to hack out.

Exceptional potential for Masters-level Working Equitation or upper level dressage

Safe, honest and ready to go! Lorca is ridden regularly by several of our J-Dot stables students, but he requires an experienced, tactful rider who appreciates a sensitive and forward-thinking horse.

Lorca’s combination of athletic prowess, gorgeous movement, and engaging personality make him a standout prospect for serious equestrians. His Veiga bloodlines contribute to his exceptional talent and trainability. He’s not just a horse; he’s a partner ready to excel in the ring and make a lasting impression.

More photos and videos available upon request, please send a DM to J-Dot Stables .

Don’t miss the chance to own this remarkable Lusitano with the potential to shine at the highest levels!

I believe that training your horse should develop their natural abilities and your relationship with them.

By considering each horse’s natural aptitudes, abilities, and past experiences, we can form a healthy happy partnership.
