Waranga W Sold

Congratulations to Hannah Whalen, whom has purchased Waranga W, a horse that I bred in Australia and part-owned with longtime supporter Amy Lindgren.  He has successfully been brought up to the training level over the past two years.  He is a beautiful horse and he is very closely related to Blythe Tait's Ready Teddy.

We wish Waranga and Hannah all of the best, and thank Amy for supporting this great horse while he was with us.

Caitlin Released from the Hospital!

After two weeks in the hospital, doctors and nurses could not contain the fighting spirit of Caitlin anymore. It's great to see her up on her feet breathing the fresh air in Cochranville again.

It has been an impressive recovery according to the experts so far. Caitlin will be side lined from riding from some time until her skull is fully healed. Anyone looking for some awesome coaching, don't be shy to text or call her on 610 316 7318. - Boyd

Fabulous End to Dressage at Devon

Duvent Struts His Stuff

 Yesterday was another great day to end an altogether wonderful week at Dressage at Devon. I rode Duvent in the morning in 4^th level and he was much calmer, having been there all week. We won the class on almost 69%. I’m really excited because he can be a hot horse and it was great that he settled down and finished on his best test. Kymmy also came 3^rd in this class – it shows that hard work pays off! Last year she didn’t make it into the awards and this year she placed in everything she entered. It was really awesome.

Then I had Rosa in 4^th level test 3 and she was great; she scored 71% and was leading the class all the way until Stately went and he of course was great as usual and scored 73% to win. It was really exciting because it was a big class! Rosa went around 10 and he went at 1:30. 

Awards Ceremony with Stately

Stately was 4^th level champion and Rosa was reserve, and Stately was also highest placed Dutch horse and highest scoring horse of the show. 

Stately is always such a star!

Thanks again to our sponsors and all of the people who are supporting me. This was such a crazy week with so many horses competing and I couldn’t have done so well without all the owners and friends helping out!
