Waredaca Horse Trials August 2019
August 17, 2019 by Leave a Comment
This weekend is the Waredaca Horse Trials in Maryland. It’s a great event and close to home, so it's easy to put some valuable mileage on the horses. I plan to ride the Prelim horses on Saturday, whilst Mike is going to ride the two mares around their first Training Horse Trials. The horses all have been working very well in the lead up to this event.

Fair Hill August Horse Trials 2019
August 11, 2019 by Leave a Comment
We are all back at it today at Fair Hill Horse Trials. I have got Mighty Mike on the younger horses whilst I am going to spin the older horses around. A few of the older Advanced horses are just going to have a nice easy run around the Preliminary before I front them up at Great Meadow (Virginia) or Kentucky.
It should be a good show. Please follow the results on event entries.
Cheers
Boyd

I went armed with my top horse Thomas and after walking the cross country course last Thursday I was so relieved I had my experienced campaigner with me. Thomas gave his all in all three Read more...Double Gold at Pan Am Games
