FOR SALE - WILLIAM STREET!

NAME: William Street
COLOUR: Chestnut
HEIGHT: 17H
DOB: May 2005
COUNTRY BIRTH: USA
SIRE: V.T. Tsunami (Oldenburg)
DAM: Bold Mansa (TB)
BREED: Oldenburg/TB
OWNER: Daryl Layfield Insley




William is a perfect mix of athleticism and ride-ability. Purchased by his current owner as a 3 year old, hopes were to bring him along as a successful local show hunter and equitation mount. Excitedly however, Will far exceeded expectations, particularly in his aptitude for dressage. Pairing this with his jumping talent, his owner decided to reroute his career towards eventing, competing him successfully in the 4 year old YEH Championships with a hugely talented group.



Will continued to settle into his new job, and returned to YEH in his 5 year old year to finish solidly in the upper third at the Championships. After reaching Preliminary level, his owner felt that he might have an upper level horse on his hands and asked Boyd to evaluate his potential. Boyd agreed with this assessment, took over the ride, and polished Will to and through his first Intermediate competition. As he continues to show promise at the upper levels, easily answering Advanced level questions, it's now time for Will to find the perfect partner to take him all the way!

Will also is excellent hacking out on the trails and loves going to the beach even braving the ocean!

Weekend Clinic at Foxrace Farm in Millbrook, NY


We have just finished an excellent clinic in Millbrook NY.  With the cold weather coming in, it was luxurious teaching in the indoor at the beautiful Foxrace Farm (http://www.foxracefarm.comowned by longtime supporter Bonnie Stedt.  

We had an excellent range of horses and riders over the two days, with groups of four in each lesson. I set up a number of gymnastic exercises and turning questions that were quite challenging.  All of the horses showed improvement over the two days. 

It also was a great opportunity to catch up with a number of the syndicate owners whom I have not seen since the WEG. I must send a big thank you out to Bonnie for hosting the clinic. It is great for me to do a bit of teaching while things are a little quiet before we start the winter season in Aiken in January.
