Thanks for posting the news. Samantha must be absolutely thrilled!
I'm disappointed that Lesley and Tim will miss the games, though I can only imagine how gutted les must feel...
Nevertheless,...

I found it touching...she was so excited and appreciative of her chance to be an olympian. I guess the OP's " :( " was simply from sharing a little piece of the disappointment Jennifer must have...

Thanks for the opinions guys! Very helpful!

Hi guys,

I purchased an older mare (18) this spring hoping to bring her back into work and compete her this summer in eventing. Unfortunately, although she's lovely, she's not as sound as I'd...

Our vet just checked our 18 y/o mare who was bred 16/17 days ago and I think we're in the same boat. Polly has multiple cysts - even when not pregnant or in season - and on today's ultrasound it was...

Good luck with the u/s tomorrow! Jingles for you and your comeback with Harry too :) (btw, he sounds awesome!)

Are you serious? What kind of freaky place is/was this?!

Between you, me and everyone on the board, THANK GOD you kept the horse and it didn't end up living with idiots like the owners of that...

Paleface has been for sale off and on forever - It's the family business. I remember when his asking price was only $20K. I bet it's considerably more now ;)

are we still talking about Laine?

Interesting to note that the author of that ad moved up from novice to advanced herself in only a couple of years. SHe finally broke her ankle and hasn't really dabbled in the upper levels since. I...

I know - I'm sooooo bummed about Jess missing the Olympics too. She would have done us proud. Last year at the Pan Am's she had a silly runout on XC and still posted one of the fastest times of the...

Thanks for the link DW - holy $hit those jumps are big!!!

I noticed over the first couple of jumps that even some of the riders who didn't pick fell just from getting close - You could tell the...

My sympathies to Veronica and RIP her lovely horse. Such sad, upsetting news.

Why not upgrade to novice then?

I think there's some crossover between "unprepared" horses and just green horses getting their start in the sport.
I firmly believe that BN is NOT the level at which ditches/banks/water should be...

She's beautiful and I'd love to take her too - but I'm way too far and the gas to get her here would bankrupt me.

I'd want to take a better look at that right hock, though - can't really tell...

Wow -those pics of the barn fire are absolutely terrifying!

Great news! I can't wait to watch (on TV that is!)!!

Thanks bornfree,

Wasn't off topic at all! Now that I really think about that term "ammy friendly" I couldn't really say exactly what it means! Just one of those horsey sayings that gets...

XC results are posted! http://www.bromont3dayevent.com/results2008afterX.htm

Here's the homepage for the event: http://www.bromont3dayevent.com/index.php

Yes, I believe Nicole Shinton has him: www.greenbrierfarm.net

Now that I've checked her website I don't see any recent stuff on him. I'll try and send her a message.

My coach comes to our farm because I am extremely fortunate and he spoils me!
Actually, he's retired now and not longer has his own place - just comes here for the free lunch and company I guess :)

I SOooooooooooooooo wish I was there right now!!! Heard the courses are beautiful especially the new 3*. Bromont is now my favourite event ever since Radnor is gone.
Good luck to all the...

I believe he has a number of young going intermediate/advanced. Penny Rowland has at least one...and there's an Ontario young rider with one too...Jean Rablat rode one....Gosh there must be a whole...

Thanks for all the replies everyone!

Denny, I absolutely agree that there's no substitute for seeing the stallion/foals in person! And don't worry, you can definitely expect me to call any day...
