Ramping up in 2024
2024 saw the entry of three new foals into the world after a year off. We took a pause from showing, but we got great reports from the owners of our babies!
Madeira had her first foal by Grand Slam VDL named Unrivaled MF. Grand Slam stamped another one with the blood bay color and striking blaze and socks. He also got his long legs from his sire, and goofy, sensitive personality from his mother. He’s a true 3 ring prospect!
Coretta had her second foal of her career, this one By Untouchable 27. Of course it was love at first sight for Uxio MF as he’s the spitting image of his mother, big belly and all. For now, we are keeping him around…maybe for sentimental reasons. He’s one athletic kid, friends with everyone and always hogging attention.
Canasta gave us another filly, foal number 6 for her. Uhura MF is a super tall, lofty filly by Tangelo van de Zuuthoeve. She is as chill as they come and could just as easily excellent in dressage as the jumper ring with her loft and scope.
Latido had a huge year with his kid Savanna in the large Jr Hunter youngers and the derbies! He’s won more money in one year than I ever have, all with his Jr rider with no pro rides at the shows.
Night Train MF has been lightly shown while his owner is focusing on college, but when they do show they kill it. With consecutive scores in the 80s in the hunter ring, his owner says he’s the easiest horse she’s ever shown. As an inexperienced 6yo he still autopiloted around the course, looking beautiful in the process.
Narnian MF moved up in the Jumper ring with smooth clear rounds and looks like a blast to ride! I’m a little jealous every time I see a video of him go that I didn’t keep him for myself, but his owner is perfect which makes it all worth it.
Ollivander MF has been a slow grower, but man has he grown into a quality young horse. He’s been focusing on dressage with his owner, who is producing her first baby by her self. It’s been so fun to watch the process, both of them learning and gaining confidence. He’s been methodically developed and looking forward to seeing them shine in 2025!
Rivendell MF got started under saddle and is as exuberant as ever. She will be unstoppable when she’s old enough to focus that power over jumps. Rubaiyat MF also got starter with good reports from her owner and mutual friend.
Swagger MF and Soliloquy were spoiled and loved and handled regularly. They both got glowing scores and comments at their respective young horse shows and are ready to be started in 2025.
