04/06/2009 Long time no update! Sorry!! Lots to report. Harrison has been sold to a lovely lady in MO. Special thanks to Vanessa Berger www.happenstancefarm.com for her help with this sale.
Rio Ricardo has been started lightly under saddle--you can see a short video on his page. Tragically we lost our first foal of the year and the first by
Rio Ricardo out of
Sausalito. We will let Saucy recover and try again for next year. 4 more foals are expected this year from Ricky's first crop. We welcome back a CTF alumni,
Sir Elton--his owner, Holly, will be attending vet school at Ohio State and will be keeping Elton with us. We are very excited to have her and welcome her skills for starting and training youngsters. Our oldest resident, Just a Tad, had to be put to sleep this month due to his declining condition. He had a wonderful life with us at the end of his show career and throughout his retirement. Out heartfelt condolences go out to his owner, Tammi Tootle. We have a new stallion!
Santino has recently arrived from Germany. He is the 'real deal' and we are very excited about him. Thanks to Jenny at www.hannoverimports.com for this opportunity. I will try to update the news more frequently as the babies arrive and the show season begins. We have added new videos of
Rio Ricardo,
Peachy Keen, and
Santino. Enjoy!
01/14/2008 We have added some new video footage to Peachy Keen, Deven, and Promise Me on the 'for sale' page. We also welcome a new Tb broodmare that is in foal to the Holsteiner stallion, Reesling. Maggie is a very good hunter type and will be kept to breed to our young stallion, Rio Ricardo. You can see a short video of him at the following address: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nHIceY0YVU0
10/12/2007 Congratulations to Timeless (aka Sir Elton) now owned by Holly Helbig and bred by us. He WON the 2 year old under saddle at the IHF Finals in Kentucky. He is by Sir Caletto and out of our foundation mare SPS Cleopatra. We couldn't be more thrilled! 
09/23/2007 We were able to get some nice pictures of my yearling colt, Rio Ricardo (Rio Grande/SPS Cleopatra) this weekend. He will be kept as a stallion prospect. 
08/09/2007 Please visit our sales page to see my newly listed horse trailer for sale. We are starting to downsize a bit and I can't afford the luxury of 2 trailers anymore.
06/12/2007 Special thanks go out to Maureen Fagan for selling me my new 'dream horse', Harrison. Look for us competing in the Adult Hunters this year. I am so excited to have to opportunity to show a horse this nice. I am on cloud 9. Pictures soon to follow. 
04/24/2007 He's here!! It's a colt by Don Alfredo out of Time Will Tell XX (owned by Southwind Stables). He is a very tall beauty with a beautiful blaze and hind sock. He is perfect in every way and we are thankful to Jim and Michelle Bassett for the opportunity to puchase this boy in utero. 
03/24/2007 She's here!! It's a filly (finally) from SPS Cleopatra (it's been 4 colts in a row) and by Don Alfredo. We will call her Daiquiri. She is a carbon copy of her dam--and will hopefully have Don's great traits as well. She is happy and healthy and we are excited to have a baby around the barn.
