Wellington, FL – November 28, 2013 – A new hunter, jumper and equitation, monthly, year-round show series will debut in Wellington on January 3-4 at Jim Brandon Equestrian Center in Wellington, FL. Founded by veteran trainer and owner of Wellington Quarantine James Lala, the Citrus Series is inspired by a need he sees in the horse show community- a show series that gives developing horses and riders a low-key vehicle to get show mileage so they can grow and progress.

“The point of these shows is to provide a quality experience for developing horses and riders who have their sights on AA shows like WEF,” said Lala.  “Our focus is to help horses and riders improve, rather than earn points, and do it affordably.”

The mission of the Citrus Series is to offer riders and horses a competitive setting where they can learn, helping them advance their skills and confidence, encouraging the best horsemanship while offering an engaging, fun and safe experience.

“So many people tell me they are looking for this type of experience,” said Lala. “We hope trainers and their assistants will bring their up-and-coming horses and riders to check it out. We are offering jumper classes at night, outside under the lights. We welcome everyone to come to Jim Brandon, get a bite to eat and enjoy a fun evening.”
