Jackie's Horses
Hannah moved up to Training in 2014 & was fabulous. I hadn't ridden above Novice for the last 7 years!! The old lady can still do it

Wie has developed into a steady eddy and I was finding it a little difficult to keep two horses in work so he was leased to Kelly Paterson through the summer and she enjoyed quite a bit of success with him. When he came home I realized that he really deserved someone who would make him a priority. I believe he has found that person.

Kyle's Horses:
Jack moved up to Prelim in 2014 and with 5 clean cross country rounds they have their eye on a CCI* in 2015. Kyle really enjoyed competing at the Prelim level again and was very proud of Jack who he started from scratch as an unstarted 3 year old.

Jill had some great runs at Training level in 2014 and she really proved to be junior/amateur friendly as we used her for lessons on several occasions. Kyle decided that it would be best for Jill to have a young girl to teach who would dote on her in return.

Margee came back to Stone Gate Farm after being out on a lease
for the last year and a half. Kyle didn't waste any time and brought
her out at Training level at Winona. When Catherine Grimes was looking
for a horse who had some experience and had upper level potential. They
clicked really well and we're excited to see how they will progress in
2015

Rosie is a Connemara/TB cross who is the
first offspring of Blue Ridge Monroe. She turned 4 years old in Oct.
and currently pushing 15.2 Rosie began her training this spring with a lot of long reining and ground driving. When it came time to start her under
saddle it was a breeze. By her 3rd ride she she went for a trail ride
and led the entire ride, her 4th ride she was trail riding by herself,
her 5th ride she was going through the water jump and up and down the
bank. Her 6th ride she to did the entire Intro cross country course and
a few starter jumps. She was ridden during the madness of the Mini
Trials schooling day and she been on a rode trip for the sole purpose of
hanging out in the trailer while the horse she came with was ridden!
Just 8 weeks after her first ride under saddle she did her first Mini
Trials and won the Very Green division. Since then she has done two
more competitions at the Starter level.and a jumper show at Chagrin
Valley Farms with a 12 year old. This is a level headed horse who truly
wants to please and is going to develop into one of those horses that
either is handed down from one sibling to another or becomes a ‘forever’
horse for a lucky junior or adult amateur!
Atti is a 4 year old OTTB mare that Kyle picked up this spring. He has been taking his time with her but so far she's been calm and willing about anything she's been asked. She has successfully completed a couple of events at the Beginner Novice level as well as a couple of jumper shows. Kyle is looking forward to seeing how she develops in 2015.

Silky is a 3 year old TB filly that Kyle has galloped
for Ruberto racing. He really thought she had a lot of potential and he let Rubertos know that he would definitely be interested in her when she was ready to retire form racing.
Right know Silky is
being let down from racing and Kyle is really excited to see how she comes along in 2015.

to SGF periodically throughout the year for a little of KSE 'bootcamp' and for Kyle to compete
. They have been competing at the Beginner Novice & Novice and always in the ribbons.

Mac is a 4 year old Connemara bred and owned by Cool Springs Farm. Mac is by the great eventing stallion
Ardceltic Art. He came to KSE to get started. Since he had just been gelded it took a little longer than usual to get him under saddle. Kyle spent the better part of the summer hacking him out to get him physically strong and balanced without putting too much mental strain on him. He need to learn to go forward and go where he was told and at what pace. He has a lovely canter and a really nice jump

The B & B Boys aka Bullet & Bandit. These two youngsters from Ruberto Racing came late in the fall to get started. They both are by Ruberto's stallion Dark Kestrel who obviously throws great dispositions because these are two of the sweetest youngsters that Kyle has ever dealt with. The both took to the long reining very will and by their first ride they were both going out on trail rides. They generally go out with another horse mostly for moral support as neither of them have ever done anything that resembles being naughty. They are really enjoying their work and showed off for Jen Ruberto the other day when she came over to watch them go. They'll be going back home soon to be kicked out for awhile before they start their race training. These two will definitely make great sport horse when they're done racing.
