Meet The Team
Personal Horses
First Commitment "CJ"
Hunter / Jumper
CJ is a 2015 dark bay 16.3 hand OTTB gelding, who had one start on the track and decided that lifestyle wasn’t for him! He is a 3foot hunter and is going to begin to dapple in the jumper ring as well. A couple of fun facts about CJ is that he is the horse that we based our company name off of, and his dad is Smarty Jones, the 2004 Kentucky Derby winner!
Loves: jumping, iced tea, moms attention and his brother Ollie
Hates: trailering
Conquest Harlequin "Conquest"
Hunter / Jumper
Conquest is a 2013 blood bay 17 hand OTTB gelding, who excelled in his racing career and sold for $245,000 as a yearling at auction. He was originally kept by us as a pleasure horse, but that did not last long! He began jumping last summer of 2021 and has already successfully shown in the hunter and jumper rings at HITS and he will continue to be one of our main show horses! Conquest is a super fast learner, and always willing to learn new things!
Loves: horse showing, jumping and going on adventures
Hates: too much attention
FC Overleveraged "Ollie"
Jumper in Training
Ollie is a 2016 bay 15.2 hand OTTB gelding, who retired after 24 starts with an about average racing career. Standing at 15.2 hands, he is tiny but mighty! We have him in an aggressive jumper training program, where he is set to make his show ring debut January of 2023! Ollie is quiet, respectful and as of recent has the best barn manners out of our crew.
Loves: water, his big grass field and his brother CJ
Hates: excessive time in his stall
FC TroubleMaker "Trouble"
Hunter in Training
Trouble is a 2021 grey roan colt, who never saw the lights of racetrack training. Purchased before he was broke, trouble has been participating in a lot of groundwork/fundamental training, where he is rapidly learning what it means to be a saddled horse. As of late, we are planning to leaving this boy "intact," to potentially stud him out in the future as his looks could kill. Troubles future is looking very promising in the high level hunters as his looks, conformation and movement are all above par.
Loves: salt licks, hay cubes and all of moms attention
Hates: waiting patiently for his dinner
FC Milk N Cookies "Milo"
Child Packer
Milo is a 2009 paint 11.2 hand Welsh pony. After a long career as a lesson pony, he has found his way to our farm where he enjoys spending most of his time in a big grass paddock with his buddy Conquest. Milo is not only super kid safe, but he is also smart, very well mannered and just the right amount of "aww" that this farm needs. This boy looks forward to the weekends when his 3 year old “owner” (our niece) comes to visit and likes to eat her breakfast, lunch and dinner while sitting on his back!
Loves: FEED
Hates: running out of FEED
