Pepper’s Capital Venture

Capital Venture made his show-ring debut during the Kentucky State Championship in 2008 at the new Kentucky Equestrian Center in Winchester. He did a great job! This up-and-coming guy is fluid and exciting to watch. He has an outstanding gait and a beautiful flowing mane. We’re going to enjoy watching this 4 year old as he matures in 2010. He is a half brother to Pepper’s Just Plain Pretty. Watch for him in the Open Geldings and the Four Year Old Classic Pleasure classes this year.  We’re sure you’ll like what you see! Capital Venture is owned by Steve Heuslein, LaCrescent, MN and trained by Charlie DeAtley.

SRF’s Silver Sundown

Seven year-old Silver, is simply awesome!  He is one of our favorite horses to ride on trail, but he is also spectacular in the show ring no matter who rides him.  2009 was a fabulous year for this wonderful stallion.  He displayed his talent by winning championships, trail obstacle classes, cross country events,  pole bending, and even carrying the flag at the Lexington Junior League Horse Show.  He won amateur classes with his owner and was even the very first horse for Baby Ruby to ever ride at the tender age of 3 months. You won’t find a more versatile horse than SRF’s Silver Sundown.  On the trail or in the show ring, Silver performs like a true champion.  In 2010, SRF’s Silver Sundown will continue his tradition of excellence.  He is owned by Steve Heuslein, LaCrescent, MN and trained by Charlie DeAtley.  Silver is a breeding stallion.  See his pedigree on the Stallion’s page.

Silver’s Blue Plate Special    (see more)

Affectionately called “Penny” around the barn, this filly is accomplished in Western, Under Saddle, Conformation, Trail Obstacle, Gaited Dressage, as well as having a lovely canter.  She was started by Robert using the Foundation First Rocky Mountain Horse Training TM system for which he has become so well known. Penny went through the program effortlessly demonstrating intelligence and a willing attitude.  Since that time, Penny has had many great accomplishments.  She was the gaited horse selected by Gill Merrick, U.S.A. Dressage Olympic Team Leader, as the World Show Gaited Dressage demo horse.  After riding her in the exhibition, Gill absolutely raved about the quality of her canter.  She had a great year in 2008 culminating with a Versatility Award that consists of such competition elements as Western, Under Saddle, Conformation, Trail Obstacle, and Professional/Amateur classes.  Penny was taken home by her owner to be enjoyed in 2009.  She was re-entered into training here at Stoner Ridge Farm for competition again in 2010 and continues to be ridden and trained by Robert.  She is owned by Don and Nancy Copland from Brookville, IN.  Penny is also for sale.  Please contact Robert for additional information 859.749.3008.

Rebel’s High and Mighty

Another new comer to the show ring this year, is cute little three year old “Heidi” who will be showing in the Country Trail Pleasure Division this year.  We are excited to see what this filly will become.  Every day she is learning new skills.  She’s owned by Bob and Marty Morris in New Bloomfield, PA and she is being trained by Michael Butler.

David James

David James, a beautiful champagne Spotted Mountain Horse, is a shining example of what we all want in our horses.  He’s smooth; he’s intelligent; he’s well built – and he is so easy on the eyes.  When Martha Gilley, David James’s owner, started coming for lessons with him back in the winter, I doubt she anticipated winning a dressage/stadium obstacle/cross country event.  Robert gave Martha lessons but Michael Butler worked and rode in the event.  Congratulations to this outstanding horse, his owners, and trainers!

Lilly Bean

Like David James, Lilly Bean is a beautiful champagne Spotted Mountain Horse owned by Martha Gilley.  She is lovely in appearance and in temperament.  She came with David James and Martha’s friend, Sue, for lessons this winter.  She did an outstanding job competing in the Three Phase Event with Michael.  They really made a great team.

MX Wrangler

Wrangler is a beautiful smoky crème 4 year old stallion with a fantastic temperament!  He is a young horse with a lot of talent.  He has an easy going nature about him and takes everything in stride.  He carries the flag with pride, performs well in trail obstacle, and wins on the rail.  Congratulations to Wrangler for becoming the 2010 RMH Show Pleasure Kentucky State Champion! We are excited to have this talented stallion in our barn.  If you are looking to add a little color to your herd, take a look at Wrangler.  We know you’ll be as impressed as we are.   He is owned by Jim and Kathy Wilkerson from Wappapello, MO and he’s being trained and shown by Michael Butler.

Maximum Blue

Maximum Blue is under saddle and being ridden daily here at Stoner Ridge Farm.  He is out of Miss Minga, and he’s by World Grand Champion Merry Go Blue.   He has that beautiful chocolate coat that folks find so desirable.  He has great ground manners and a solid gait.  Blue is ready for the trail or the show ring.   He is definitely show quality and would be in the Trail Pleasure Division.  He has that puppy-dog disposition that we all want in our horses.  Blue recently made his debut at the Bourbon County Fair and Horse Show where he placed 3rd with his trainer, Lisa Sidwell.  Maevis Solomon from Jonesborough, TN recently purchased this fine gelding.  She plans to enjoy his loving attitude and show him some herself.  We’re excited about this new venture for Maevis.  Cheer her on when you see Maevis and Blue in their trail pleasure classes!
