Real Men Jump Bareback!!

Ryan made yet another grand appearance in this year's bareback Puissance class, featured during the lunch time entertainment at Plantation Field International CIC!!  He rode alongside other brave competitors such as Caroline Martin, Jennie Brannigan and Ashley Leith.

It was truly a ride to the finish, with the wall getting stacked up to 6'2" at the final height!!  Ryan rode a really quick & handy horse of Mary Hazard's, whose jumping style proved competitive, but in the end, Jennie edged out the competition.  I have to hand it to Ryan, b/c he kept his cool & his shirt on!!

Enjoy the slideshow.

In other news, Ryan has also imported yet couple of young horses from Ireland.  Marco is a 6 year old and Bennett is a 4 year old (pictured here in transit), both by the number one jumping sire in Ireland, Sarco.  Congratulations to Chemine Evans and Bennett Creek Farm on the purchase of Bennett!!

New Irish Imports!

We've had a busy summer shopping in Ireland.  All of our recent sales horses have sold, but fear not we have 4 more imports either here or on the way!!  We will be updating the website & blog with these new horses in the near future, so stay tuned.

One of the reasons we bought the horses we did because we didnt want them to go back home traveling in this!

And here's a clip of our new 3 year old (by Sarco) testing out the US soil!
