Operating as usual
Our sale pony, Gypsy, was such a professional at her first jumper show! It was amazing to watch her put it all together and figure out the job after the first few fences at 18 inches. This was her 2 ft round, piloted by jr rider, Kendra. It was Kendra's first jumper show, too!
Half lease available beginning December 1. "Socks for Dobby" is a "been there, done that" TB looking for a rider to enjoy him. Dobby is a gentle guy who rides in the ring, out in the field, on trails, etc. He loves to jump and gets more animated and forward once jumping. I would recommend him for an intermediate rider who wants saddle time. Our facility has an indoor and outdoor arena as well access to fields and trails. We are an active barn community that does local shows and field trips. Half lease would include half of his expenses. Text Diane at 540-454-1444 for more information or to come meet him!
Eventing for the Cure today at Hunt Club Farms- What a great day! A crisp morning turned into a beautiful afternoon. All 6 of our riders made us proud! Great job!
Last call for the James Burtwell clinic this weekend- October 29th amd 30th. Don't miss this great opportunity to ride with a top level dressage rider and trainer!
For your consideration, Gypsy, 7 year old pony mare. About 14 hands. Sweet pony with lots of potential for eventing, jumpers, pony club mount, even local hunters. She is still green but is learning very quickly. I wouldn't put a beginner on her right now, but maybe in time. She's not a kick ride, she has her own motor. Currently barefoot and UTD on vaccines. Asking mid 4 🥕🥕🥕🥕s for an uncomplicated sale.

Lauren and Draco at their first show together. Super round!
A fun school at Elysian Hills!
Check out our own Katy Espinoza and her mare, Malibu at Twilight this week! This is only their second time putting all three phases together. What great form!
Awesome day xc schooling Last Frontier Farm's schooling course. Ponies were all perfect, as was the weather 😀
enjoying the beautiful countryside of Loudoun county as well as their wines! 🍷🥂
our hay crew for today! We'll have well fed equine friends for quite some time! 💪💪💪
Cadence Stables has a rare stall board opening at the end of May. We offer lovely pastures, newly renovated outdoor arena with fiber footing, indoor, ride out and a wonderful barn family to ride and learn with. Training available but not required. PM for more details

Alex Friend do a beautiful, rhythmic BN jump round
Elisa Allen improve her dressage score drastically
Elle and Mandate have their first show together with a 33 in dressage and clear jump round!

Enjoy my own horse, Nate's, exuberance and work ethic though a Prelim jump round.
What will next weekend hold? 😍
it was a nappy kind of day at the farm today 😴
We made it to southern pines! It was an uneventful trip down and we enjoyed a hack in the sunshine today 😀

Finally ready to part with my Devoucoux Chiberta. I still love this saddle. It's a 2013 model, 17 inch seat, medium tree and 2A flap. Asking $2200, willing to entertain offers. Text Diane at 540-454-1444 if interested.
We're hosting a small CT on Sunday, November 21. If anyone would like to join us, text or email and we'll add you to the schedule
Beautiful day for a romp through hill and dale! Our own little "mock hunter pace" was a success! We'll do more as weather and time permits--watch for other opportunities!
It's a good day when our first 2 riders tie for 1st! Go Angela Freiberg and Veronica Castro (and Ben and Winny of course!)
Post update: great job to our Elementary riders as well! Tyler Warman is back at it doing all 3 phases, Kathleen Atkinson had 2 clear jump rounds with great confidence on XC and Yve Sturman pushed herself outside her comfort zone and completed 3 phases having only jumped a handful of times recently. 👏👏👏
Skipper (Jc name Cinc pac) is a 2016 TB gelding who raced 1 time in 2019 before Phyllis Dawson scooped him up and took him to Windchase to be let down. One of my adult amateur riders bought him because of his puppy dog personality and lovely movement but she's decided she's more of a draft cross type rider. Skipper is easy to handle, well mannered and in your pocket! He ties, loads, and has been off property with us many times to hack, xc school and do the loch moy derbies (elem). He's a youngster that needs more miles and muscle but he has a superb brain for any amatuer working with a trainer. There's a lot of talent in this horse yet to show because we've taken things slowly and done a lot of flat and lateral work. Asking ✌0,000. Call or text 540-454-1444 to come see this gem!

Sharing for one of our boarders: Horse available for a partial lease: he loves to jump and will jump anything. He would be great for an experienced rider looking to improve their skills. He used to do hunters but has good potential as a low level eventer. If interested let Rachel know. You can text 314-616-7044. Videos available.

This is the first time in over a year that I have [client's] horses available for lease!

Lease terms are flexible but a lesson a week is suggested and in some cases may be required.
Don't forget! The EquiSafe rep is coming at 5 p.m. to demo and help with fit and answer any questions. Don't miss this great opportunity to see what safety options they have to offer!
We wish Merrill Wasser the best of luck in her move to Alabama! We will miss you! Here's a snippet of her last ride on dobby before shoving off
We are hosting the Rep from Equisafe next Sunday at 5 pm. She'll have safety equipment including vests and stirrups to demo as well as safety inventory and apparel for sale. All are welcome! Wine and cheese will be served. 🍷🧀
Some ponies were feeling very fancy today!
Cadence Stables is hosting a low key CT on Sunday, June 27th. Tell your friends! We have limited parking but are happy to have some folks join us. If you're interested in attending, please email or text Diane at 540-454-1444, [email protected]. Levels offered are Intro-training, either CT or dressage only available (or both!) Great for green horses or trying a new level!
We had an exciting day at Red Gate HT yesterday! Lots of firsts--first shows with new partners and first time competing at a new level. I didn't get many pictures, so please share pics and video here!
The only horse that could get me to a hunter show 😍
We are holding a low key Combined Test next Saturday, May 1. If anyone would like to join us, please contact me at [email protected]. Intro- Training level available, $75. Dressage test only @$25
Everyone finished on their dressage score! Go team!
Fun day at CDCTA yesterday! Despite a lot of rainfall overnight, everyone had great runs and a successful day! Maureen and Pernicious had the best day, coming in 4th in their BN division! 🎉🎉
Great AEL show today! Thanks to all our helpers and folks who graciously shared their horses to make today possible. Good riding, Team!
Official update time! I think we all felt a bit rusty going into our first 3 phase competition of the season. Dressage was a little rough for me personally, and I think Sabrina and Duchess felt the same way, though there were some bright spots in both of our tests. Maureen and Pernicious were the dressage champs of our group today with a solid test. Maureen and P had a nice show jump round with just one rail. Sabrina and duchess had a lovely show jump round that was double clear! And Nate stepped it up for XC and did his job well! All in all a great day. We had a LOT of packing to do tonight to get everything back into the trailer that came out, but we are well on our way. Big thanks to Sabrina's family for helping us get packed!
Wish us luck for another great day tomorrow and a safe journey home!
We're here!!! It was a (thankfully) uneventful trip down to Hoffman, NC. The horses were silent the entire way. Now they are settled into their accommodations until their private turn out tonight 😍
Had a fun time schooling the derby course today with Meli. She's for sale! Grab this girl in time to start your spring season

We had a race today while xc schooling- who do you think won? Participants were Kip, duchess, Lily and Rio
Oreo is not as enthused about school being cancelled as the girls are . . .
Busy day at the derby course today! Here are our riders showing off just a little bit!
Welcome home, Meli! And big congrats to Alex Friend! You 2 are going to do great things 😁
fun times yesterday!
Some of you may remember the days when Duchess had to trot around at a show for 45 minutes before she could hear a thing you had to say, and getting on without her rearing was a bonus. Or maybe the days when she was feeling fresh and you could see the frustration on Avery's face. Who knew she could walk off the trailer and be this relaxed and steady? I'm so glad to see she and Avery come so far
Making it look easy!
