When you think of Clydesdales, what comes to mind? Probably the famous Budweiser team of big-bodied bays pulling a red wagon through crowds of adoring fans. But amateur rider Jessica Crannell-Menard is hoping to change the perception that the breed can only pull a cart. Six years ago she purchased her first Clydesdale stallion to […]
I could feel the grit settling in the creases of my eyes after a long day standing at the in-gate. The AC in my truck was acting up and starting to blow less-than-cold air on my sunburnt face as I fumbled to answer my phone. Which, if you know me, I don’t do often. If […]
“Really” may seem like a strange name for a horse, but there’s a good reason for it. Really is named for the reaction everyone at Lane Change Farm had when they witnessed his fantastic jump for the first time. Really?!? Really.

Bromont, Quebec—June 9 Lauren Kieffer had tried just about everything over the last year to help Landmark’s Monte Carlo regain confidence in the show jumping ring. The 13-year-old Irish Sport Horse-Thoroughbred gelding (Formula One—Glamour) had been eliminated in the final phase from two different international events in 2018 and had begun racking up more and […]
Bromont, Quebec—June 9 Boyd Martin’s won multiple times across nearly every level at the Mars Equestrian Bromont International, but the CCI4*-L has always eluded him. He finally got his wish today though, as he jumped a clear round over Marc Donovan’s show jumping course with his homebred Ray Price to take home the win. Five […]
Bromont, Quebec—June 9 A year ago, Bobby Meyerhoff made it his goal to win the Bromont CCI2*-L, and today he made it a reality, leading the victory gallop with Lumumba, a 9-year-old Mecklenburg mare (Levisonn—Lamara, Lamarc) owned by The Donovan Group. Show jumping was influential today with 10 pairs jumping double clear over Marc Donovan’s […]
