Race Horse Sale at Mountain Springs Arena

2009-08-26T15:34:00Z

Mountain Springs Arena in Shartlesville, PA was the latest venue our company sought out to promote our listings during a race horse sale on August 23, 2009. Quite a good crowd turned out and some lovely horse flesh was being auctioned off. There were a few unruly colts who gave their handlers a run for their money but for the most part I was surprised how well behaved these often flighty horses were (someone suggested tranquilizers perhaps). Rich Miller put on a good event and owns an impressive number of Thoroughbreds himself.

A training track has been added to the facility which is a sign that race horses are here to stay at Mountain Springs. The auction was held in the commercial sized indoor arena complete with a beverage bar, fans to help keep the crowd cool and flower baskets to brighten up the sales ring. As proof that the word got around about this sale, I met a trainer from Chicago who was scoping out the area for his clients who were looking to make a move to PA to take advantage of the PA bred incentives. The last time I was at Mountain Springs it was to watch a rodeo about 18 years ago. At that time it seemed so far away but as my company has expanded its service area to counties beyond the Lehigh Valley and the Poconos, this time it seemed rather local.

Finding my horse in Oregon

2009-07-29T21:08:00Z

As some of you know I lost my beloved riding partner and company mascot, Cosette, last August to dreaded colic. Since then I have been looking for another horse and a good many hours were spent on the internet searching for my next mount which had to be a Lusitano or Andalusian. Last September my husband accompanied me to Northern Vermont to look at a 3 year old Lusitano which had just been started under saddle. Sadly after making the long car trip up there the horse was displaying a head-shaking type problem which turned me off. After that I stayed more local for a while looking at a few horses in NJ, none of which struck my fancy. The winter was cold and my desire to start a young horse at that time was non-existant. Then once spring arrived with all its flowery splendor, my passion to ride started to make its strong presence once again known. Realizing to find my dream horse I may have to travel to the west coast where the Iberian horse is more prevalent I started to expand my search. Through much networking a breeder in Kentucky told me about a breeder in Oregon who was liquating her herds. With a lot of persistance on my end to gather more information, I was convinced I would find my next horse there since they had a fair amount of horses for sale. I booked my flight and traveled to Oregon in the middle of June. It was a wonderful trip. From Newark, NJ I went to Salt Lake City then flew into a tiny 2 gate airport in Lewiston Idaho which was the closest airport to my destination, Lostine, Oregon. I traveled 2 hours by car on a very windy road along steep clifs. Luck was on my side as the road was free of the sometimes occasional boulder which would roll down and block the way so I was told. Having no cell phone coverage would have made it a bit more of an adventure than I cared to experience. Anyway the weather was picture perfect and I arrived in Lostine in no time. The views along the way of this pristine countryside were glorious (sans developments, strip malls or condo buildings). The folks where the sale horses were being kept were delightful and the owner/seller showed me Amatoro first as he knew this horse had the movement for dressage. Right from the start I really liked his calm eye and disposition, sensitive nature and lovely movement but coming over 3,000 miles away I wanted to see more horses. And so I did. Spending the next day with herds of Lusitanos and Andalusians on a mountain top in northern Oregon was a soul touching experience. None of the horses had been handled very much and some were extremely timid. Having the horse trot on a lead line was not going to be happening here! After seeing many prospects I decided to make an offer on Amatoro. The next day I was able to see Amatoro again which confirmed my decision that he was the horse for me. An hour later I had to head back to the airport and witnessed a cattle drive somewhere in Washington. This definitely was a charming completion to my trip as this easterner headed back home.

Another Great French Master Passes

2009-07-28T15:37:00Z

Sadly, Jack Le Goff, former coach for the US Eventing Team, passed away on July 26th, exactly 3 months after we lost Riding in Lightness Master, Jean-Claude Racinet.

I had the pleasure of meeting Mr LeGoff back in 1996 while attending CCI*** Saumur in France at a cocktail reception for the competitors (snuck my way in since I was working for the FEI at the time).

Steffen Peters Wins at Aachen

2009-07-07T21:54:00Z

Hooray for an Steffen and Ravel - one of the first times I remember an American cleaning up in dressage at Aachen. He ousted Anky Van Grunsven on her Olympic mount out of the Grand Prix, the Grand Prix Freestyle and Grand Prix Special! Steffen was born and raised in Germany and migrated to the US 20 years ago so in essence he is German but he says his heart is in America. Watch their performance at the following link: http://www.dressagedaily.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=4272:09ach-petersfs&catid=288:09aachen&Itemid=386
