Kristal Clear Eventing

GMHA Festival of eventing

We had quite an adventure of a weekend, which started with dressage in the pouring rain! I have to say I am so proud of all my horses and riders who rode through the awful weather and produced there best tests of the year so far! Then some last minute schedule changes due to some major wash out issues on cross country, leaving our BN ladies with a day off and then having to run both stadium and cross country on the same day. Both stepped up to the plate and ran a double clear! I am so proud of them and all of there hard work this summer! Distorted sky was amazing as well but an unfortunate spook in dressage and a rail in stadium cost him. Other than that he was absolutely amazing! Now we all take a few weeks off to train and back to gmha in Sept!
Thank you to the amazing team at GMHA for pulling this weekend off. I’m pretty sure we were all blown away that you were able to fix everything after the insane amount of rain and continue the event flawlessly!
And as always thank you to all our staff both at home and at the show for keeping everything running smoothly!
Thank you to our sponsors as well for keeping us all outfitted and our horses happy and comfortable!

Coursebrook July 2024

Congratulations to all of our riders on some fantastic rides! We took 5 horses and riders to Coursebrook horse trials on Saturday and had a very productive and exciting day! We are so proud of everyone’s hard work and determination! We have an awesome team and the day ran so smoothly! After a long drive home and a very late night we packed back up the next morning and took the two baby horses to the stockade dressage schooling show. It was both horses first time off the farm and very first show. Both of them blew us away with how well they handled everything and how well they did in there tests! We are very excited for the future of our baby eventers!! Thank you as always to our incredible sponsors and team at home for keeping us looking and feeling our best and keeping everything running smoothly while we travel!

Sleepy Sunday mornings

14/08/2023

Saturday we enjoyed an afternoon off the farm cross country schooling the young horses. We had a very productive training day, tackling some new jumps as we prepare for the final competitions of the season. Thank you to Kinnitty Capall stables for allowing us to school at your beautiful facility!
After a long day training we came home and enjoyed a nice evening BBQ and good bye party, with most of our barn family, for our amazing working student Phoebe Akaka. Pheobe is headed off to school in Montana and our whole barn family is going to miss her dearly! We wish her the best of luck and will be awaiting her return in May, as she joins us for the 2024 season.

RRP 2023 hopeful Ghost at Midnight completed his first HT laying down his best dressage score yet! He powered around around the stadium and cross country with a few green moments but showing a lot of potential! We are very excited for the future with this beautiful boy!
Sunday we decided last minute to take prolific to stockade to try and get his qualifying ride for the TIP championships. While it was not his best test to date it did earn him the TIP award for highest scoring thoroughbred at the show and sealed his spot in the championships. Huge thank you to Anita and Stan for fitting us in very last minute!!
So with all that being said we will be headed down to Kentucky in October for both the 2023 Thoroughbred Makeover and the 2023 Dressage T.I.P championships.
