Acres West

Eeyore Mini: Tends children, patrols the farm, calms large horses... and does laundry. All at age 35! Every barn should have an Eeyore!

Week full of wonders for Team Acres West! THE SILVER SCREEN takes the win in the Small Jr. Hunter 17&under Classic, the Under Saddle, and finishes reserve overall with Payton Potter in the irons! JAGERBOMB gets a third in the Large Jr. Hunter flat, 4th in the handy, and 6th overall-- not bad for a first time at Jr. Finals here in the USA, eh? ;) ... And finally, KHALED gets some chillax time on the trail, after his Gladstone Cup win! Appreciation and gratitude to trainer Leslie Steele and our wonderful grooms.

Two weeks of wonders, for Team Acres West at the Temecula Valley National Horse Show!

Payton then finessed THE SILVER SCREEN into a Small Jr. Hunter championship *and* a 2nd in the combined Classic!... ....all before hopping onto KHALED, for a 2nd in the $5,000 NEE Hunter/Jumper Challenge, paired with Kevin Lemke & DURRANT! Marian Giffin's GOLDEN TICKET scored a chocolaty-delicious championship in the 3' Greens, piloted by Leslie Steele. And finally: Acres West congratulates Anneliese Kannow's XOXO, for winning the A/O Classic with an 88 and a 90, as well as a reserve championship in the 3'3" A/O division!
