Hard Work Pays Off ~

What a devoted team
these two are !!

So proud ~
















For the First time in the history of CSI, there were 4 USDF All Breeds awarded.  One of those champs is
The Mighty Quinn ~ from Top O' The Hill Farm breeding.
  1st place- Stefanie Rossetti- riding Mighty Quinn- median score 64.516..

Stefanie is committed to her horse and her riding - she's in the saddle all winter preparing and this
pays off at the shows !

Is this beautiful ?? 

Excellent scores  are not an accident -- just as quality horses are not either ..  Good breeding and dedicated up-bringing produce part of a winning team such as this one.

This lovely boy has many relatives here on the farm ready to move on to their future homes -

whether as trusty trail mounts or successful show horses.  One of whom is a farm favorite --
OYY Queen Jane Approximately. She has been on and off the sales list forever -- always on the fence about parting with her. She's been backed finally and is back on the list for sale to a rider looking for a sweet, loving Champion American Curly to take to shows and bring home the ribbons... 

 This colt - born 
March 9th of this year - 
is also headed for definite success

This boy was 11.2 hands at birth

at 2 months he measured just a hair over 12 hands !  a handsome, well mannered colt, with size and movement !  What a stupendous stallion prospect.

But - part of what goes into producing talented winners like The Mighty Quinn and those others mentioned has nothing to do with the curly quadrupeds... 

  Much of my farm days are taken up by working my way down my many lists.  When I get to the point where almost all the items are crossed off -- then I celebrate ... and make a new list !  maneuvering around weather patterns and any other interruptions... farm maintenance mostly  boils down to ..

just putting one foot in front of the other and getting stuff done so we can get to the
RIDE part of life  ~


Enjoy YOUR ride !!
