Is it already April???

Last week was the CCI in Ocala and I am happy to write that it was a very successful week for the Suwannee Farms crew.  We had 2 students in the CCI** and both placed in the top ten with Drew ending up 7th on Stiletto and Natascha 10th on Paddy Winkler Lad.  It was a great result for both of them and now Stiletto goes on to Jersey Fresh and Natascha will be headed to NAYRC this summer.  Our other students did very well with Nobie Cannon getting her qualifier for the Area 3 champs in the training and Shawn Caneff bringing home a ribbon from her very first recognized horse trials.  
It looks like we will just be doing one more event this season at Chattahoochie and then taking the summer off to work with the youngsters and do some schooling shows.  Since I do not have any upper level horses at the moment I am going to spend time producing our young horses so they are ready for competition this fall.  This will include finally getting our stallion Gold out to some recognized competitions after he has finished his breeding commitments this spring.
As our luck would have it all of our working students are leaving around the same time to pursue other careers or commitments so we are currently looking for both a long term and short term working students.  If anyone is interested in working and competing with us please send us an email at sfieventing@earthlink.net
