Christmas is close! ✨ Are @premierequineengland boots on your Christmas list? They’re always on ours! These are our absolute favorite boots for cross country and the only ones you’ll ever see our horses wearing. 🎄🎅 #PremierEquineInternational #xmastime

A huge congratulations to our student Alexa Gartenberg on being invited to participate in the U25 Emerging Athlete Assessment Sessions. We are so proud of you. Your hard work, dedication to the sport and your love for your horses is noticed by everyone around you. Sparkle & Shine Lex! 💕✨

The horses have arrived at Blossom Creek South and they’re all settling into the new farm nicely! Thank you @brookledgehorsevans for getting our crew there safely, truly the best in the business.

11/19/2021

And our move to our new southern home has begun! Less than two weeks until the horses head down to Aiken for the winter season ☀️ #HereWeGoAgain #TimeForWarmerWeather

We are so incredibly excited and blessed to be able to spend the season at our new winter home, Blossom Creek South. 🌴

Well it was a fitting end to a weird season that saw me get eliminated on flaxen in many new and different and completely dumb ways… he was feeling like a million bucks all weekend and then, after a night of rain and a morning of drizzle, slipped on take off at the first water and then slipped again and put down on take off in to the second water a few jumps later. I called it a day which I’ve never even had to consider doing on Flaxen. But this is the sport, right? So much love for this horse, he walked off the course feeling quite proud of himself and enjoyed every minute til he said no thanks. Will spend the off season regrouping and making sure my good buddy wants to keep doing this.

Super Socks was feeling frisky this morning to jump an awesome double clear round to maintain the lead in the three star 🤩

While Matt is away at Morven, the horses at home are starting to get their fall clips! 💇‍♀️🍁 Which is why we are so thankful for our @mannaprohorse Corona Shampoo. This shampoo is a game changer for clipping baths and gets the horses squeaky clean while leaving their coats oh-so-soft! 🧼🛀

PM for more info on this really promising young OTTB with super gaits and a brain to match!

Thank you Cindy Lawler for these great pictures of Shelley Onderdonk’s Alderwood!

Alderwood was fantastic at Unionville this past week. His dressage has come so far (I think he may actually be starting to like it!). He was fast and super reliable across the country and one rail down (100% my fault) in show jumping for a super finish at the two star level! Three star, here comes Dan! 🌟🌟🌟

Without our sponsors horse showing would be near impossible. Thank you @voltairedesignusa_can @premierequineengland @fleeceworks for the best competition gear for our horses and thank you to @samshieldofficial @tuccibootsofficial @kasteldenmark for the best gear for myself.

@mannaprohorse Corona Shampoo helps us give the best horse show baths, @sterlingessentialsllc keeps our tack show ring ready, and @gumbits are the best little reward.

This is our @trutexfooting arena today just after one of the worst downpours we’ve seen all summer. It POURED and POURED. We actually had some water come in to our house and the creek at our driveway flooded it’s banks. But there isn’t a puddle or a soft spot to be found in our arena. It’s kind of magic actually. #dreamring #rainraingoaway #orstayitactuallydoesntmattertome

09/10/2021

We did a polo rolling competition featuring our favorite polo wraps from @premierequineengland ! 🤪 (and we had to add Mario Kart music of course) 🏎

We love absolutely everything from PEI and their polo wraps are no exception! We use these wraps daily and the quality is next level. Our staff and clients all prefer Premier Equine’s polos (and boots 😉) to any other brand #PremierEquineInternational #321Start #ItsaMeMario

We got slammed by Hurricane Ida yesterday and this is how our ring looks today after 6 inches of rain. Not a single puddle, the footing was solid and every horse got to work today. If you’re building a new arena or are looking to change up your footing, we highly recommend @trutexfooting. TruTex has been a life changer for us and our business. #BetterFootingBetterLife #TruTexFooting

Ahhh, our little babe Fergus. Larger than life personality, sweats chocolate milk because he’s candy on the inside. 🍫 Painfully slow to mature, quick to learn. Spooks at the same rock every day but will never do anything naughty (except maybe eat your hand whole). He is the biggest dork you’ve ever met but has something pretty special in there. Wears his heart on his sleeve (or hoof I suppose). I have no doubt that our little freckle face fergs will be legit someday. ❤️ #LismakeeraFullOnFergus #Fergalicious #MakeTheBoysGoLoco

Big thanks to our sponsors that have been with us through all of our young horses’ journeys. @mannaprohorse for all of the horse care items we could need and @gumbits for the best pre ride treats. Fergie is decked out in his favorite outfit from @fleeceworks, @voltairedesignusa_can and @premierequineengland. Also a big thank you to @trutexfooting for the absolute best surface to work our young horses on.

Gale is the most lovely 7 year old Irish Sport horse that we imported from Ireland as a 3 year old a few years ago. He has the kindest soul and is just wonderful to have in the barn. We bought him as an upper level prospect for Matt but he’s developed kissing spine which will keep him from being an upper level horse. He responds well to back injections. When his back is bothering him he has a pretty decent bronc in him. It doesn’t make sense for us to keep him for Matt anymore, and he is a super useful horse that should be very fun at the lower levels of dressage, jumping or fox hunting, so we would like to find someone that can manage his little things and love him as much as we do. Because of this his price is quite low, and he would be sold with an agreement that his next owners would have to be approved by us and we would have right of first refusal as we don’t want to see him passed around. Contact us for more info 707-480-4501. He’s located in Kennett Square.

We only use Sterling Essentials in our barn!

We did a thing! We have been searching and searching to find the right footing at an affordable price and when we finally came across TruTex Footing, we were sold. This footing is amazing and the price point is even better. Matt could not wait to start spreading it today! Stay tuned to learn more about this amazing footing as we test it out in our own ring. It is like Christmas in October.

🥰 We couldn't be more excited and thrilled for Beall Spring Farm LLC bred Frame Shamrock 🍀 who has found his new person in Alexa Gartenberg. It certainly wasn't our plan for Shammy to leave us, but when the perfect home comes along, it's hard to turn down. This amazing horse was family, but we are so looking forward to watching he and Alexa grow and flourish together. We will be the proud uncle for sure! Here's what Alexa said when we asked what her plan is for the summer with him: "He's such a special horse, I'm already in love with him! We've just been getting to know each other, I took him cross-country schooling for the first time last week and he was so game and totally perfect. Our first show together will be Loch Moy in a few weeks to get to know each other and hopefully we'll be able to do a 2*-L by the end of the year 🙂" We can't help but think the future is ☀️ for this lovely pair! Thank you East West Training Stables for helping bring everyone together. And don’t forget Shamrock’s full brother, Beall Spring Seahawk is coming up following in his footsteps and is also available! Find him on our pages or on our YouTube Playlist he’s every bit the gentleman his big brother is! 😎 #gratitude #happyclients #happyhorse #barnfamily #dowhatyoulove #eventing #horsesforsale #salehorses #congrats
