H.H. Lancaster arrives from Canada

A big congratulations must go to Ron & Densey Juvonen and Justina & Art Dodge on their purchase of a very, very impressive 5-year-old gelding: H.H. Lancaster is a Canadian-bred, 17hh Thoroughbred/Hanoverian/French cross gelding that Silva and I found on a tour of horses a couple of weeks ago in Ontario.
.
Silva and I spent a few days cruising around Canada searching for horses. Waylon
Roberts had Lancaster in training at Dreamcrest Equestrian thanks to Sue Ockendon. Lancaster looks to be a super mover and a scopey jumper that has plenty of ability. The plan is to get to know him and start eventing him midway through the season in Aiken next year.



His name was thought up between the two couples of owners: Ron and Densey own Henley House Stables and Art and Justina are from Lancaster....thus H.H. Lancaster. Again, a big thanks to the new supporting sets of owners!

On our way home from looking at around 50 horses
we managed to do a little sightseeing at Niagara Falls.

  1. Its Ockendon - you might want to correct that - what's the breeding - we just bought a 3 yr old mare thanks to Sue - a 17 hh by freedom Z out of a catherston Liberator mare.

  2. Lovely looking youngster, you should make a training video to sell on how you choose horses.

  3. This is wonderful news! Lancaster (Baxter K) was bred by us here as Ashland Farm. He is by the wonderful International GrandPrix Argentine TB Yavari out of our mare Unka K who is by Indorado.
