✨Introducing Khali✨

✅ Competed in Lexington, KY at the Rolex Stadium for an all mustang English competition
✅ Has done a few cross country drives
✅ Shown and placed well at multiple English shows

Khali is a 4 yr old mare standing at 13hh from Adobe Town, WY HMA. This adorable pony is a rare gem to find with her quiet demeanor and willing attitude! Khali showed at a big competitive mustang show at the Kentucky Horse park with less than 2 months of being under saddle! She has a super solid foundation on her and she can be taken in many directions
➡️ Kids Hunter Jumper pony
➡️Gymkhanas
➡️ Playing out on the trails

Khali may be only 13hh but she is big enough to ride with a small adult! She is looking for her forever home! Message me if you think you are Khali’s perfect person.
Located in Snowflake, AZ

She’s getting closer and closer 😜
I am really glad I spent the time getting her comfortable with me above her, and desensitizing her to my body touching her all over! This built our trust with eachother a ton and I feel like I learned a little bit more about her emotions and personality today!

Here is CSH Khali’s update on how we did at the Mustang Classic show in Lexington, Kentucky!🤩

She absolutely BLEW me away every second during the competition. Now we didn’t make Top 10, but she really held her own in the placings against the big dogs that also showed! If you know me you know that I have only ridden and competed western, so I experienced a whole lot of firsts as well. Khali got a lot of training thrown her way from her training of being completely wild starting in June , and showing in September. We learned how to complete our first dressage test, navigate a Working Equation pattern, and perform a jumping course with all the help from Isidro Espinoza Horsemanship in just under 3 months. I would have never went out of my comfort zone like this or have been pushed to challenge myself, grow my knowledge and appreciate a whole different side of the horse world without the help of Amber and Isidro.

Dressage:
We did training level test 2 and scored a 60.345% placing us 28th out of 56. Her transitions were flawless and she felt so relaxed and in tune with me. I know we would have achieved a much higher score if we had a little bit more time. A rider error also occurred and I didn’t complete our first 20m circle which decreased our score some. Regardless, I am so happy with how it went and this might have struck a new interest for me to continue learning this discipline in the future.

Working Equation:
This class definitely didn’t go as planned 🙈. Mustang classic page kindly posted in depth tutorials on how to navigate a Working Equation pattern correctly. I quickly learned as I was studying each video how easy it can be to get disqualified. So I did my best to practice the obstacles given to prevent a DQ, unfortunately we still got DQ’d 🤦‍♀️… to make light of the situation, ironically enough my barrel racing background kicked in at the wrong time and I preformed the drum obstacle like a barrel pattern, which ended our class short. Going into this show the WE had me most intimidated to show for different reasons, with her being so green I feared she would have been spooky at the sight of all the odd obstacles put together in a small arena. But that was not the case, she was so confident and didn’t think twice passing everything. Next time I will be more prepared 😉

Stadium Jumping:
I had zero idea of what to expect going into this class. I knew we were ready but with only 2 months of experience jumping a course I was a little bit nervous. I opted to do the 12” jumps and we did it all without hesitation, refusals, or knocking a rail. We did approach a few jumps on the wrong lead and had a couple crooked approaches which dinged our score some. This class we got a 58.125% placing 27th. I had the most fun doing this class and I think Khali did too!

All in all I am super pleased with how the weekend turned out and felt so much support from all of my friends and family that came and supported our team! The people you surround yourself with surly make shows fun! Congratulations to every single competitor and Top 10 finalist, y’all really had some amazing mustangs to show off!

I’ve been having way too much fun with CSH Khali!✨
As some of you may know I’ve ridden western my whole life so this is quite the change for me!Khali has under 20 rides on her and look at that girl go! Her first show and my first english show🐴!

This past month of going full English has been a ton of fun! Isidro Espinoza Horsemanship has been giving me lessons and I seriously wouldn’t be able to do this without them! This has been a golden opportunity, for any trainer at any level! So HUGE thanks to them!💛

CSH Khali is getting better by the day and really soaking up all this training going at her! We have roughly 5 weeks to continue to prepare for the Mustang Champions - English Classic Kentucky 2024, I’m feeling confident we will be at a really great place by then! The most important part is we’re having fun and getting to show this adorable 12.3hh pony is something I’m really looking forward too!

Khali is available and she would make a fantastic kids hunter jumper pony! She’s as athletic as they come and mixed perfectly with a quiet demeanor and extremely personable! Come and meet her in Kentucky in September🙌! CSH Sol and CSH Yogi have both sold this past month so don’t sleep on this opportunity to snag this girl😉

The very first Mustang Champions - Western Challenge Vegas 2024 has come to an end! So many experiences and memories were made this weekend that I will never forget. I will make a separate post on how the weekend for us!

What I wanted to share was the exciting new adventure headed this mares way! This wonderful couple was seeking for a new partner and their description of requirements they put out matched her perfectly! She left from South Point and is on her way to her new forever home ❤️She got a new name, Alma, which is ‘Soul’ in Spanish! She will be beginning her new job doing Endurance races and enjoying trail rides with her new people! I am so excited to see what she becomes of herself and the connection she grows with her people! Thank you Shanda and John with Wild Cowgirl Horsemanship for giving Alma the most amazing home!

She thrives off of attention. Girasol aka "Sol", will be competing at a high level ranch riding and reining mustang show in Las Vegas, July 11. She is also entered in an all English, Hunter/Jumper, Dressage, and Working Equitation mustang show taking place in Lexington, KY in September.

She would LOVE her new person to cheer her on at the shows, take lessons with her and follow her progress. If you think you are Sol's perfect person please reach out! There are not many big, athletic mustangs with a mind and temperament like hers! She is currently located in New Paltz, NY. Transport to Northern, AZ (or anywhere along that route) may be available.
