Her legs are clean and she has no vices.Both fillies have lovley temperments, trailer well and good in turnout.

Profile Information

A Bit About Me and my Horse(s)
Started riding when I was 4 yrs of age. Showed at local fall fairs and hunter shows.
At 9 I did my first 25 ctr, and pretty much got hooked. In 1985 I was part of the gold medal ctr team to win the first three day 100 mile Canadain Championship CTR.
Was again a part of the glod medal team in 1998 held in Nova Scotia and an individaul gold in 2002.
To date I have logged close to 7000 distance miles.
Presently working towards the FEI 100 mile test event in Kentucky this October.
My mom and I run to farms. Where we teach lessons, board,train and buy and sell. We also raise some home bred distance horses.

It's not true you started riding at four years of age. You were actually much younger. ;-)

Hi Lesley

Glad to see you found Barnmice. Teresa and a few others are on here too. Didn't have much time to talk with you or your mom at Aprilfest in May and we've been border hopping this year so probably won't see you until Flesherton. Good luck with your season.
