I brought So Just Royal and Dueling Creeks Brew up from Aiken to compete in the training this weekend. Both have been improving daily, jumping exceptionally well earlier this week in my lessons with Phillip. Hopefully, the flat work will continue to improve at the show as it has at home. Both these horses will ultimately be competitive in the dressage, but it is a bit of a work in progress at this point. I’m really looking for these guys to have a good confident weekend as I plan to move them to Preliminary in June.

Will keep you posted, though this event is not nearly as exciting as what is happening at New Jersey. Hope to have these two training horses entered in the CCI** at Jersey Fresh next spring! Best wishes to all competitors at Jersey for a safe and successful cross-country day.

In South Carolina, our new permanent home is nearly done! We have posted several pictures here so you can see how far it has come. Also a great new addition to the farm is barn manager Heather Carberry. Heather brings a range of experience in the horse world. She is absolutely amazing and we are so lucky to have her!

Craig will be spending June in Middleburg, VA. Call or email now to discuss lessons/coaching. Looking forward to seeing you!
