We had another solid weekend of eventing over the last few days at Paradise Farm Winter Horse Trials in Aiken. Several of our young, up-and-coming stars were out competing, as well as a couple of wonderful horses that we have available for sale. The horses did not disappoint, and it was a good outing for all. We enjoyed the company of several owners who came out to cheer us on, and welcomed Abbie Golden, who took a short break from studying at college in Pennsylvania to compete her horse, Spenser, in the Open Preliminary division.
A big congratulations goes to George and Gretchen Wintersteen for their lovely Irish horse, Ballyneety, who won the Open Novice B division! This is the second straight win for this horse following a win at Full Gallop Horse Trials last week. We are excited about the future for this horse after the wonderful beginnings of his American career here in Aiken!
We have a great group of horses for sale, including Freedom's Pride, Bacardi and Ladylovesdiamonds, who all had a successful weekend and look to be strong eventing candidates. Contact Boyd if you are interested in any of these fabulous horses.
Our thoughts are with Denise Lahey and Pierre Colin, who tragically lost their horse, SBF Zamboni aka "Mick", over the weekend. Please know that we are thinking of you during this difficult time.
