A SUPER HORSE SHOW WEEK!








Our girls were super at Swan Lake!  Susan & Rose won their first blue ribbon at their first show together!  Hooray for this new team.  Lynn & Lola were cute as ever as they marched around at Swan Lake on Thursday!  Congrats ladies!





Sandi & Chateau had their best show yet!

Shiree & Bobby had a fantastic show!

There were plenty of other blues and ribbons won by the rest of our team: Anya & Annie were both adorable on Miss Rosie who was a perfect little pony!  Susan & Rose showed again and were wonderful.  Grace & Lilly continue to win hearts with their smiles and great performances. 
Thank you Denise for making all of these smiles possible.  Congratulations to everyone who showed and thank you to all those who helped make it happen. Go team BC!

Fun day at the show!!



Last Sunday we started out the day with Lauren and Sundance making a stellar performance in the short stirrup. Lauren came away with some great ribbons and certainly gets the cuteness award!















Grace and Tucker were both "on it" and were reserve champion in the Novice Equitation. These two are such a fun team to watch!















Rose, Daquiri, and Norman went to school and all three were very good and had a nice, positive, off the property experience.

Burdock made his debut in the Pleasure Horse U/S and got two red ribbons with Kristin. He was a very good boy.


Smitty did the adults with Katelyn, who we are thrilled, is now leasing him. They ended up champion! They are going to be the team to beat.
Krissy showed Chateau after only one ride on him and won the medal and a class in the adults. Well done!


We are very proud of all of our horses and their riders and we look forward to lots of fun shows this spring and summer.
Go team!!

Hey Boy

Words cannot express the sadness the Banbury Cross Family feels about the loss of Hey Boy. Hey Boy was the little horse that could.  His heart was bigger than most any horse out there and his love was seen in the way performed.  His "smile" will be remembered by all who knew him and loved him.  Thank you for reminding us how love can transform a horse into the amazing creature you became Hey Boy.  Run in green pastures forever and please watch over your friends you left behind.  Thank you for enriching our lives Hey Boy.  We love you.
