CLASSIC OAKS AT WYNDSOR FARM

It was a late night on Sunday for our Adult ladies showing at Wyndsor Farm.  Despite showing in the late evening hours, our horses and riders were stellar and had a blast!  There were tricolors and top ribbons won by all!  Pictured above are Sandi & Chateau, Shiree & Bobby McGee, Halaine & Guy, and Lynn & Lola with their fearless leaders Kristin and Denise.  Congrats ladies on a successful horse show!

Spring Has Sprung!!

Hello BC Friends!

We had a beautiful week of spring!!  Warm weather = happy horses and riders!  Yay!
Let's gear up for a fun spring of horse shows, clinics and trail rides!

• Sunday April 14th - Brass Ring at Wyndsor Farm
• Sunday April 21st - Classic Oaks at Wyndsor Farm
• June 7th and 8th-Jen Miller clinic

Jen Miller is coming back to do a Spring Clinic!!  In addition to the regular clinic format she is also offering private lessons and training rides on Friday.  Email us for more information and to sign up.  

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.

Banbury Cross had a really fun day at the CCHSA Medal Finals at Wyndsor Farm this past Sunday.  Some of the highlights include Cawood & Emma earning Reserve Champion in the Novice Equitation Division and Gabby & Johnny winning Reserve Champion in the 13 & Under Division.  Both Grace & Tucker and Sam & Wendel did very well in their divisions too. 

Our adults however stole the show!  Barbara & Harvey were amazing over those BIG jumps in the Adult Equitation Division!  Congrats on a great ride Barb!!  Amy & Happy won the Championship in the Adult Eq with Kaley & Christopher right behind in Reserve.  They switched it around though in the Medal Finals with Kaley WINNING and Amy in SECOND!  What a proud moment for Banbury Cross!  Thank you everyone for a great day.  We love our Banbury Cross Family!!
