| Britnie Mallet on TB Private Bryan |
Thoroughbreds, Quarter Horses and Arabians, oh my! It was an equine smorgasboard of riding talent from The Riding Center (aka Desert Bred Arabian Farm) that went to the Fall Hunter/Jumper Shows at Cornerstone Farms.
Coached by Sarah Sanders, these students ranged from first time show novices to 'been there, done that' veterans. Judging by the beautiful photos (by Bobbi Sanders of Lone Oak Photography - thank you Bobbi!), it was a success!
Left - Britnie Mallet showed TB ex-racer Private Bryan. Bryan is a stunner and is surely developing a very large fan club. He is also for sale to a lucky person who is looking for an elegant mover.
Left - Natalee shows her new TB, Mikey in Hunter classes and below
Left, Lori Zackrie and her Desert Bred gelding, DB Bolero.
Bolero and Lori have done it all. After winning several AERC Limited Distance rides, and galloping cross country courses in foxhunting with the Shawnee Foxhunters, Lori is now taking on the Hunter/Jumper world - watch out everybody!
Destin Cylkowski showed her new TB, Radar in the Jumper classes.
And Rochelle Weaver shined with her new QH, Fancy. Before Fancy and Rochelle came together, Fancy spent her early years giving walk/trot/canter lessons and occasional trail rides. Now with Rochelle in her life, Fancy has become a force to be reckoned with in the Hunter ring. Some of her curves have melted into muscle and a light glows in her eyes with the new challenges she's found in life. It's been wonderful watching these two develop their partnership together.
