Thank you to Jordan Laplaca for the opportunity to own this very special horse !

Sarah Botthof’s Bronx Balou stepped it up to the high ct hunters with two wins over fences and reserve champion.

Kat Kronengold’s tasty little Irish powdered doughnut , Erin Go Bragh, won two training hunter classes earning him champion . For an inexperienced fella , he’s pretty smart. His previous owners said he went to bed early and read a lot …🤓

Last week we had a lovely outing at Blue Dog Farm for some team building and off the property experience.

Thank you, Liz Drolet, and Blue Dog Farm 😁

Off the property , non-competition outings are great to help new horse and rider partnerships to get to know each other. It’s also great confidence boosting for those who do not get to go to competitions often and want to go to another facility without any pressure🌸

Congratulations to our FCF competitors last week at Princeton ShowJumping !

Ludovico PD and KG won two of his 1.20 classes for champion in the division !
His “brother” Hijack had to settle for 2nd and 7 th place behind him in corresponding classes!

Cara Bailey and her Chabalou IK earned 5th, 3rd and 3rd in the open 1.10 classes! It’s wonderful to see his pair develop into a trusting team and watching their talent bloom together !

These pairs are great examples of what Full Circle is focused on : Understanding your horse, yourself and developing a skill set that brings the team together for progress!
