Wellington here we come
Heading towards Wellington after finishing up at Rocking Horse in Ocala, Florida. Johnny did not appreciate how close the dressage arena was to the highway at Rocking Horse, and it showed in his dressage score. We’ll see how he runs at Wellington, which is a more enclosed space. Lucky Number Seven placed second in open…

A Horse Named Seven
My OTTB Henri (aka ‘Heron’s Waltz’) and I practice our liberty work and Corteo tries to get over his fear of cows. A rainy day meant a day at Rolling Ridge Farm in Tunnel Hill, GA where I was able to work Indy, Henri, and a new horse named ‘Seven.’ I’m really proud of Indy…

Spreading Flipping Cheer
Because ECOGOLD makes the #HardestWorkingPad, they helped me to #SpreadFlippingCheer to my long-time working student Aly Rattazzi…but it required a little bit of BUCKEYE® Nutrition trickery. Emit (aka ‘Baby Mustang’), Teddy (British Warmblood), and Indy (Off the Track thoroughbred) compete at the Poplar Place Farm schooling show. I’m so proud of the progress these boys…

Finishing 8th at Rolex Kentucky CCI****, becoming an Alternate for the 2016 Rio Olympics, and placing 14th and top American at our very first Burghley CCI****. A big thank you to everyone who has supported us along the way, especially my…

There are no horses in this episode, but lots of horse people, including Peter Gray, William Fox-Pitt, and Phillip Dutton. I also spent some time swapping stories with Patricia Da Silva, VP Marketing for ECOGOLD…

She Missed a Jump
After torturing children during a clinic at Free Form Farm in Cumming, Georgia I work a little bit with an off the track thoroughbred that hadn’t been worked much since a trailer accident a year and a half ago. Back at Rock Creek Farms, Astro (aka Mr. Star of the Night) gets worked in the…
