Ashland had a great final month of the 2015 Summer circuit. We ended our final month of showing with great results.
Our adult rider Susan Stanley won several championships in the low adult division with her own Everest and ended up with a championship on her new horse Grand Cayman in her last Kentucky horse show. Another big winner was Catherine Stafford who took the reins on the jumper Aretina and ended up with the championship in the childrens jumper division at the khja horse show. That same week Kathryn Hall took the win in the childrens jumper classic ensuring a top spot qualifying for the fall indoor shows in the childrens jumpers as well as the This finals at the Capital Challenge Horse Show. Addison Piper and Katie Schell also received top placings in the equitation division qualifying them for the big eq. finals. Anna Koenig also had a great finish to her summer with a reserve champion with her hunter Happy Days and good results on her jumper Super Trooper. Anna also aquired a new horse to show in the hunter and equitation division who looks to be a real winner.
A new rider to the Ashland team Lilly French had a great final week winning the Small Jr. 15 under championship with her own horse Candor. Lilly rides with her trainer Carrie Gleason in Cleveland , Ohio and Ashland when Carrie can’t attend. Lilly also won the award for the leading Junior for the hallway derby series held throughout the Kentucky spring and summer shows. Helen Voss ended up finishing the Hallway series in third place with several top finishes. Helen is off to college and we all wish her the best. Alexandra Smith also finished the summer with a championship on a new mount Perfektionsist in the childrens hunter division. Ashland Farms wants to thank all of our clients, trainers, grooms, vets and farriers for all the hard work this summer.
We look forward to a successful fall circuit .
