New Facility Opening Summer 2012!

3/9/2012

We are really excited to ann0unce that our new facility will be opening at Split Mesquite Farm in Coupland, TX in summer of 2012. We  will be building a full sized covered arena with north and south walls to block the nasty winds we often get in central Texas. The south short wall will have four large doors on it so when the weather is nice, we can open the arena up. We will be adding a 10 stall barn, 4 grooming stalls, wash rack with hot water, a large tack room, feed room and office, as well as individual turnouts. We will also have a 10' x 60' viewing platform at the north end of the arena and a full short side of mirrors.

We  will be taking horses in training starting this summer and hope to start holding clinics and other educational events starting late summer/early fall 2012.

We will keep information on our progress here!

In other news, we have about a month before our two new additions arrive! Our Gran Casso x Delaney foal and our Rubignon x Lugana foal are due just days apart in the middle of April.

Freedance is going very well under saddle and will be competing in his first show at the end of March up at Tyler in the materiale classes. Gran Casso will also be going and competing in 1-3 and 2-3 with hopes of getting our qualifying scores knocked out at one show!

Waren continues to train well. His canter is getting stronger and more supple every day and by using exercises we've picked up at JJ Tate's farm last October, at the Steffen Peters clinic last December, at Janet Foy in January and at the Lilo Fore Clinic this past weekend, we hope to continue progress and have him out at Prix St. Georges later this year.

Our two three year olds will be going under saddle later this year. Bacarro (ES Bonheur x EM Atlanta) and Jypsy Rose (Gran Casso x Portia) will both be leaving our north location and heading south to begin their careers under saddle. We hope to have them ready for their first competitions under saddle in September. Bacarro is for sale right now for $15,000 but the prices will increase with training!

Our two year olds (Prince, Santana, & Gloriana) are maturing well and I can't believe they are only a year away from getting started. It seems like they were just foals a few months ago! We are offering Santana (Sonntagskind x EM Atlanta) and Gloriana (Gran Casso x Reigner) for sale. $10,000 and $9,000 respectively.

As far as re-breeding for 2013, we are planning on breeding Delaney back to Freestyle. We lost our 2011 Freestyle x Delaney filly and and excited at the chance to get another! We are still deciding on the perfect stallion for Lugana.
