2025 was a year of incredible growth and smashing goals. Some highlights for our team:

•Linda got her groove back after a couple years with some scary injuries. Not only did this superstar regain her confidence but she also jumped her biggest rounds on Wally as well as found the courage to try several new horses and buy the beautiful Farrah.
• Kylee dug deep and found her grit again on her young horse and her campaigner, finishing the year in true Kylee style with multiple championships.
• Micayla and Belle developed their partnership - bringing along young horses is not always linear, and to keep showing up everyday for each other shows heart and determination on both their parts. They ended the year off with confident rounds and even a top 5 placing in their first medal!
• Danielle and Fynn had a brilliant showing this year. Smooth rounds and lots of growth.
• Jordan achieved goals this year that she never thought she was really allowed to have. After years of grinding away she found herself in the 1.30m on a horse she developed herself from first show at 0.75m to this year’s 1.30m.
• Marley was the oversized pony I never knew I needed. Not only did she pop around 1.30m but she spectacularly saved my ass on more than one occasion. So incredibly grateful to have this chica as a partner.
• Our non showing crew made progress too. Amanda and her super-pony got back into jumping after Amanda’s second baby and completing her masters. Chantelle made the smart decision to get additional help with her young mare which is turning out to be incredibly successful.

2026 will welcome a few new team members, a lot of showing, and all sorts of new goals to crush!

Congratulations to Linda Carter on her purchase of Equites Argentina. “Farrah” just joined us late July and has already impressed us with her kind attitude and good looks.
