Mashantum 1986-2011
Mash has traveled to the next world, last week he would not leave his stall, he was in terrible pain and could not walk, I left his door open in case he felt like coming out.
For the the last month he has been declining and every morning I gave him carrots and pain killers, asking him to please let me know when he was ready to move on. Around noon I notice he had wandered up to the hill where Chleo, Dutchess and Byron are buried. He lay down on their graves and slept for several hours. Mash was telling me it was time.
He passed peacefully and is laid to rest next to his favorite canines. Mash was a great horse who always made us laugh with his antics and gave me the ride of a lifetime.
Training Actors to Ride

I am training Ray Stevenson, the actor who rides in Jayne Mansfield’s Car, a new film written, directed and acted in by Billy Bob Thorton. Ray learned in a few days how to steer and ride Mr. T for the the scene where he gallops across a sunflower field with his new love interest. Ray was an excellent student and learned to ride balanced quickly after many exercises like this one where he moves his arm independently of his seat.
Roscoe and Lauren Win Mistover Combined Test
Congratulations! Lauren rides Roscoe to the winners circle at Mistover last weekend in a combined test. Roscoe is a Canadian Warmblood for sale at Windrock Farm. He is a beautiful mover and effortless jumper.
Lovely 12 Year Old TB Jumper
This is an awesome gelding for the right rider, he is a super jumper and easy to ride. An elegant mover, come try him for your next show horse or fun horse who can do anything.
Bugsy and Blaze
Blaze is starting to show his personality more every day, here you can see how regal he can be. Bugsy is very independent and curious like his daddy, and Blaze is more reserved. They are starting to play together every day, especially in the late afternoon when it cools down. Bugsy is now 8 weeks old and a tank, Blaze is 5 weeks old and as tall as his brother.
New Colt Born 4.21.11
Another colt by RJ out of Bay Prive, he is stunning and has a sweet disposition, he is very friendly, walking up to anyone in the field. Bay is a wonderful mama and Bugsy is thrilled to have a buddy to play with.
Vanessa and Flo on Allez
Spring riding with Flo and Vanessa at Windrock Farm. The snow is finally gone and we are enjoying hacks across country watching the buds come alive.
