With their current focus in the sport of dressage, Mandalay and Connor are competing at Intermediare. Mandalay has helped Connor receive both her bronze and silver medals. The pair also attended the USDF Dressage Nationals at Lamplight and finished 5th in the open division as well as attending Dressage at Devon 3 years in a row finishing top 10. Additionally, they were invited to attend the USDF Dressage Finals. In just a short time, this team has had multiple top finishes at fourth level and Prix St George with scores over 65%.
Duiske Abbey
"Mouse" is a 9 year old, 15.3 hh, irish sport horse out of the coveted stallion Obos Quality. She joined the team in the summer of 2019. She had previously competed through the preliminary level with Liz Halliday-Sharp in the UK, before coming across the pond to compete in the USA. Although a fresh partnership Mouse and Connor have taken to each other very well. She loves to jump and run cross country, being the boldest horse in the barn. She has no fear and hopefully this will carry her to many big competitions in their future.

In his second show season he has already qualified for regionals at first level and second level with scores over 70% and will be making the moved up to third level. He is a true competitor and loves the show atmosphere. A true sweetheart in the barn, Ike will easily progress through the levels and have a competitive future in the upper levels of dressage.
We are actively seeking ownership opportunities on huge talent. Perfect for someone who wants to support a gifted horse from the beginning.
