High Standard Stables

What a perfect way to end 2024 with this great group of students. We had a blast schooling xc at Texas Rose Horse Park! Everyone brought their A game and wow did they put in some great rides. Rodgers was a champ as he let three students school in him and he gave them a fantastic xc country experience. Cat and Maverick took it easy as he is coming back from an injury. That horse is loaded with talent and I can’t wait for him to be 100% so we can get back to training hard and getting him ready for his eventing debut. Ray and Sully keep getting better and they got to go over some bigger logs today. Every time Sully got more confident. 2025 is going to be an exciting and fun year! Thank y’all for a great day!

It was so wonderful having Tristan back for a lesson today. After a long break from riding he picked up right where he left off as if he never stopped riding! Rodgers and him sure make a great team and they popped over the xrail like no big deal. So excited to see what these two can do next year!

Robbie and Gem were having some fun over xrails today! Robbie just keeps getting better with every jump! It’s a lot of fun seeing the pieces come together :)

Aliza had a blast getting to canter Rodgers! For being so young this girl can ride! What a joy it is to teach her and see her develop into a fantastic rider!

Rodgers and Sienna putting in a great round. I can’t help but smile when I think how far they have come together. Just keeps getting better and better!

Sienna and Rodgers put in a great course! Love seeing all of their progress!

Marishka got to do her first xrail. She has done a fantastic job and has come a long way in less than a year. From being brand new to riding when she arrived and nervous to now being a confident and balanced rider. So proud of her hard work and dedication!

Sienna has come along way and has been a delight to teach and watch her progress. She is putting in some great hunter and jumper courses with Rodgers. So excited for Sienna to attend her first show with us next weekend as she competes with Rodgers in the hunters Saturday and the jumpers on Sunday.

Tracy and Rodgers practicing some nice turns to get ready for the jumpers next weekend. They have been working super hard and I can’t wait for them to get to compete together again!

Cat and maverick putting in a great Hunter course in preparation for the upcoming show. They are making their move up to the 2’ division. So excited for them!

Huge welcome to Sienna, we are so thrilled to have you join the HSS family!

Huge welcome to Sienna, we are thrilled to have you join the HSS family! This was her third lesson here and already she had made huge progress improving her position and riding the course. So excited for the opportunity to continue to work with her and help her prepare to make the college team! Can’t wait for our next lesson!

What a fun morning schooling xc at Texas Rose with Cat and Ray! It was everyone’s first time out on xc and I couldn’t have been more proud of the horses and their riders! Cat and Maverick schooled all the starter jumps and I’d definitely say Maverick really enjoyed the xc! He sure has some scope for the bigger jumps once he is ready. Can’t wait to get them both to their first horse trial in august! Ray and Sully did a great job gaining experience outside of the arena and even trotted over some logs! Sully was super relaxed and definitely enjoyed splashing through the water at then of of the schooling as well! Great job to y’all!

It was such a delight watching Robbie who has grown leaps and bounds in the last few weeks try out this horse today and confidently walk trot and canter and then pop over a jump with no hesitation. These two were already clicking great in the test ride and it was a pretty easy decision that this was a great horse for her to continue to grow with. Huge congratulations on your purchase of Logan! Can’t wait to see all you both will achieve together!
