Bobby Meyerhoff and Danica Moore do a lovely job starting many different types - they are both event riders who believe in a good, solid foundation with no gimmicks. I've seen and/or ridden a number...

I seriously contemplated trying to load Valentia into the back of my Jeep, but (un)fortunately Mary did not leave me alone with him long enough:lol:...he is well-built and social and fortunate to...

Hey Watery Glen, any idea if and when our esteemed Ashland Bassets are going on Sunday? I've got a horse show on Saturday so can't make it then, but Sunday is looking like a possibility...

I had a pony Wug on my weanling last winter and it worked great - I especially liked the snaps in the front because they were easy to do and undo, very helpful if your little guy is wiggly. I'll be...

The printed version of the Chronicle classifieds will often have barns in the NOVA area for rent.

Or, you can go to www.middleburgonline.com - it has a page with links to many of the local real...

I just ordered a pair of DeNiro's from Brogini in the UK - made in Italy, I believe. Not cheap but not quite as expensive as customs and they take less time to show up.

Fairview, I think I rode that one about 3 years ago (is the timing right?) - he was green but had great balance and a really nice way of going. I always wondered what happened to him...

Thanks, guys, very helpful. Any idea on what his temperament is like? Ami-owner friendly or more of a typical jumper sire?

Yes, I remember him from my junior days in the 80's/early 90's - but that was a loooong time ago:)

I just got a pair of the $200 Sprengers and LOVE them - I should have bought them years ago, no pain or numbness and my legs don't fee like they're going to break when I hop off at the end of a ride....

Horse Country has them, too - and it's a good excuse to call up and order something else (or 6 something elses)...

I used Nationwide to ship a 3 year old from California to Virginia - horse arrived in good repair but the communication was lacking - horse arrived much later than what they had told me, in the dark,...

Greetings, COTH'ers-

Does anyone have a contract clause for right of first refusal that they would be willing to share? I know these can be infamously sticky and difficult to enforce, but I'm...

LOL - totally agree - from a buyer's perspective, I won't inquire on one that has the infamous "one dollar" tag or no price at all. To be an economics wonk about it, transparent markets are...

I believe Antares is a HITS sponsor, so they should have someone at Culpeper.

I was having the same problem with a pair of old Vogels - I had them stretched a tiny bit (Journeyman can actually measure to see where the pinch is) and now they go on and off with much less drama. ...

I might add that I think Apiro just won a class out of 29, if I am reading the results correctly...can't be jumping all that badly...

From a buyer's standpoint (and assuming it's out of an appropriate mare), it's hard to find Quinar foals - same goes for Balou foals, although he's over the pond and therefore doesn't qualify. ...

Jennifer and Jessica have been fair and honest in all of my dealings with them - they take excellent care of their horses and their clients. I would do business with them again in a heartbeat and...
