offcenterlineCongratulations from the American Trakehner Association to the newly approved stallions from 2013: Feiner Prinz (Perechlest – Cornus, bred by Dr. Renate Wernke-Schmissing, Germany) owned by Dr. Margaret MacGregor, Holders Hill, Auburn, Illinois; Hart Throb (Hailo *Pg*E* – Martini *Pg*E*), bred and owned by Jean Brinkman, Valhalla Farm, Wellborn, Florida, and Heroic Measures (Platinum vom Rappenhof *Pg* – E.H. Biotop, bred by Connie Kempter, Canada), owned by Jay and Melissa Yager, Lenoir City, Tennessee. Also in 2013 the ATA Board of Directors posthumously approved the Thoroughbred stallion Coconut Grove for use in the Trakehner breed.

Congratulations to Whit Watkins of Moody, Texas, on receiving the fifth annual “USDF Region 9 Teaching Excellence Award” at the Great American/USDF Region 9 Championships held in Bryan, Texas. Whit received a $5,000 award for demonstrating adherence to sound dressage principles and the ability to communicate these principles so that students develop themselves and their horses in a logical, progressive and humane way up through the levels. Way to go Whit!

The California Dressage Society Horse of the Year High Percent Stallion (Tambu Memorial Trophy) was awarded to Susan Treabess and the eight-year-old PRE stallion Kamiakin owned by Katie Hill of the Netherlands. Susan is a 2010 World Equestrian Games Para-Dressage rider aiming for the 2014 World Equestrian Games.

At this year’s Adequan Global Dressage Festival, music will be a highlight for spectators – and not just freestyles! Highlighting the “Friday Night Stars” programs are musicians from the Frost School of Music at the University of Miami. The Frost School of Music, one of two schools established in 1926 when the University of Miami was founded, is one of the largest and best music schools located in a private university in the U.S. Ensembles such as jazz bands, chamber orchestra, a capella jazz singers, a gospel choir, and more will be featured during the Friday evening competitions.

On Friday, January 17, a special “Wild West Show” will be the “mane event” at The Stadium at PBIEC, featuring trick riders, comedy acts, barrel racing competition, a roping act, Roman riding teams and more for a full western rodeo atmosphere!

Kim Boyer’s Grandioso is the highest rated PRE in the world (ahead of every American except Steffen Peters) and her homebred Vaquero is also at the top of the list of six-year-olds in Spain! Fabulous news – congratulations Kim.

What a team! Shannon Dueck has partnered with Sally Alksnis on not one but two spectacular horses hand picked by the Carl Hester. Allegro II (barn name Alfie) is a fun seven-year-old that Shannon describes as a bouncing baby boy! The second soon-to-be superstar for this pair is six-year-old Serpico. Congratulations on the new boys!

Leslie Morse is now in Wellington from California with a small herd of horses, but Leslie didn’t buy hers – she bred them. All four are protégée of her two superstar stallions, the late Kingston and Tip Top 962. Leslie shared her fun tales of raising a new generation of super stars with the audience at the recent ShopTalk at Show Chic Dressage. There were tears and laughter and no doubt she has a new set of fans who will be cheering her on at the winter CDIs!

Annette Longenecker wasn’t just born into horses Annette Longenecker wasn’t just born into horses—in a way, she was born into her career. She grew up in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, where her parents ran a farm. Her mother taught, and her father had a jump business and then created one of the first horse show software programs: Ryegate Show Services, Inc.

Riding all her life, Annette spent many years as a groom and loved it, but knew it wasn’t what she wanted to do as a career. After she finished college, Annette’s father recruited her to help process entries at Ryegate. Since her father, Lloyd Longenecker, founded it in 1981, Ryegate has provided show management and office staff for some of the largest shows in the country. Now, Annette has taken over from her father and directed the company as it focuses on managing memberships and rankings for organizations such as the North American League, WIHS Championships and Equitation, Rolex/USEF Computer Ranking and National Medal Series (THIS NCM and Ariat NAM). Ryegate also provides scoring software for use with video walls, and production teams for hunter and jumper shows.

“Besides running Ryegate Show Services and its various organizations, I can be found in the show office, running a scoreboard or judging jumpers at most shows,” Annette said. “I love getting to wear a few different hats at the show.”

When she’s not busy at a show, Annette lives in Annville, Pennsylvania, with her “fur-baby,” Maggie Mae, and enjoys spending time with her many godchildren. Though she doesn’t currently own any horses, Annette rides when she can at Rolling Acres Farm with Patty Foster, Ashley Foster-Worthington and Mary Lisa Leffler.

A column from Liz Halliday-Sharp herself The spor A column from Liz Halliday-Sharp herself 
The sport of eventing is a demanding and mentally challenging discipline that requires a combination of physical and mental fortitude from both the rider and horse. While having a coach can be incredibly beneficial, self-coaching can also play a crucial role in a rider’s success.

I think that given the opportunity, most riders would like to be coached every day. The reality of life in the horse world, however, is that the majority of us need to absorb as much from the lessons we have on a limited basis and then practice those skills at home to improve.

When I am riding, I try to have a plan for the horses each day and focus on what I’m looking to achieve. It’s important to be aware of the steady improvements rather than trying to solve everything all at once. This is especially important when teaching horses new movements or exercises that they might struggle with, and we need to give them time to learn and understand what we are asking for.

I have a couple of quotes that I use regularly when I’m teaching, and these are mottos that I hold myself to in my daily work as well.

The first is, “If you do what you have always done, you will get what you have always gotten.” This is a quote that was said to me many years ago when I was still motor racing and I keep it in the back of my mind each day. It’s easy to get stuck doing the same thing every day with your horse and bad habits are hard to break, from both riders and horses!

This leads me to my next quote, which is, “If what you are doing isn’t working, try something else.” It really is as simple as that! Many riders I see keep asking a horse to do something the same way over and over with an ongoing negative response and they wonder why things don’t get better. In these circumstances, I recommend that the rider change something, even if it’s wrong.
