🌟IRHA MIDWEST CLASSIC | TOP RANCH HAND🌟

Big things are happening for this talented young gelding! 💙🖤

🧨TRIGGER WARNIN🧨, better known around the barn as “Axle,” and Martin Schwartz brought home an impressive 3rd Place finish and $1,178 in earnings in the Open Top Ranch Hand competition at the Indiana Ranch Horse Association Midwest Classic!

At just 4 years old, Axle was the ONLY junior horse in the competition, stepping into the pen against a tough field of seasoned, experienced bridle horses. Despite being the youngest horse in the lineup, he proved that age is just a number, holding his own against some incredibly talented horses and riders!

This 2022 gelding, by Hashtags and out of TR Guns And Roses (by One Time Pepto), is proudly owned by Meg Levy of Bluewater Farm L.L.C.

Axle has quickly become a barn favorite, stealing the hearts of just about everyone who meets him! With his personality, natural talent, and the progress he continues to make, we truly believe this is just the beginning of many big accomplishments for this special horse. We couldn’t be more excited about his future!

🔥TRIGGER WARNIN IS OFFERED FOR SALE!🔥

This is an exciting opportunity to own a talented young horse with a bright future ahead of him! Axle will continue to be trained, hauled, and shown until sold, and his price will reflect his continued training, experience, and accomplishments.

A huge thank you to Stacey Sanders for trusting Martin with the opportunity to swing a leg over River for this competition. It was a pleasure seeing these two come together and make such a great team in the show pen!

A great showing for this talented young stallion!

CSEVNMETALLICHOLIDOC and Martin Schwartz brought home a 5th Place finish in the 3-Year-Old Futurity at the Hoosier Shootout, holding their own in a very competitive group of talented 3-year-olds.

This 3-year-old stallion, by Pepi Hollidoc and out of One Cool Malice Cat, is proudly owned by Consistent 7 Ranch of Orleans, Indiana.

We’re incredibly proud of the progress this young horse continues to make. Futurity year is all about building confidence, gaining experience, and laying the foundation for the future—and we’re excited to see what’s ahead for this team!

What a weekend in Michigan!💙🐴

We’re back home from another great Ranch Horse Association of Michigan show, and we couldn’t be more proud of our horses and riders! Everyone showed up, rode hard, and absolutely killed it all weekend. From great runs in the arena to plenty of laughs outside of it, this was one of those weekends that reminds us just how much fun showing horses is supposed to be.

We couldn’t have asked for better weather, and as always, the people at RHAM made the weekend even better. We’re so thankful for the welcoming atmosphere, great competition, and friendships that make every trip to Michigan worth it.
