Bam Bam Slam- Available for Adoption!
Monday, July 08 2013
by Editor
Bam Bam is such a cute mare, always in your face for attention and will check you out head to toe if you walk into her stall because she is very curious about people. She will do whatever she has to to keep your attention completely on her. Always the princess! Bam has an adorable face and is very well put together and muscular for such a young horse meaning she will be a very solid, pretty mare at maturity. She already garners attention every time she is out of her stall. Her rider will need the experience of working with babies because being only three and being unraced, she is working on the basics of moving forward, bending, straightness and focus. By doing figures around the arena, she is better able to focus her attention on her job and it also aids in bending and suppling through the body. Once Bam has more miles under her belt she might be a little less lazy and she is suitable for any less strenuous disciplines if given some time to finish growing up first

Carly Morrison and Wendy Collins Claim Sunday Classics in Vermont
Monday, July 08 2013
by Editor
East Dorset, Vermont – Canada’s Carly Morrison and Connecticut’s Wendy Collins were the two big winners on Sunday, July 7, at the Vermont Summer Festival running July 2 through August 11 at Harold Beebe Farm in East Dorset, VT. Morrison took the win in the $10,000 SJHOF High Junior/Amateur-Owner Classic riding Duvel while Collins emerged victorious in the $5,000 NAL Low Junior/Amateur-Owner Classic. Morrison was the first of six to return for the jump-off in the $10,000 SJHOF High Junior/Amateur-Owner Classic, and a tidy tour of the jump-off track yielded a four-fault score in a time of 44.38 seconds. Others who followed opted to try for slow and steady clear rounds, but the rails kept falling. Helena Le Picart came closest to catching Morrison, but her four-fault effort in a time of 44.62 seconds aboard Bon Vivant would not be fast enough to take over the lead.
