He definitely made it SPECTACULAR this weekend! 🤩🏆✨

In only his second horse show ever, five-year-old Bento PSF, trained and piloted by Lacy Stormes, stepped up in a BIG way and took home:

🏆 CHAMPION — 2’3” USHJA Hunter Division
🥇 4th — $1,000 2’6” Hunter Derby

And there’s a little more to that 4th place that makes it even sweeter… 🥹

Not only was this Nori’s first derby ever, but it was also his FIRST class ever at 2’6” and scored an 84 in the handy round! Talk about making an entrance. 😍

To say we are proud and excited would be a massive understatement. 🙏🏽

A huge thank you to everyone who makes up . We are incredibly grateful for the people behind this special young horse, especially his owner and breeder, Dana Bleifer, and his groom and emotional support human, Danielle Carrillo. 🥰

The future is looking pretty exciting for this little guy! ✨🐴

Thank you Liz Corkett 📸

Doing things the right way the first time almost always takes longer, but it is 100% worth it in the end. And sometimes you have to turn these training techniques into a bit of a game! But whatever works, right?!!

Thank you Danielle Carrillo for your endless patience and smooches 😘

Today was a fun day with Talley Meadows Inc’s special 4-year-old, Corazon, who is spending some time on a training field trip with Lacy! ☀️

This video, captured by Danielle Carrillo, shows Corazon’s training in real time as he tackles one of our favorite gymnastics for the first time.

We felt it was important to share the progression instead of only the polished moments. Social media can easily become a highlight reel where it’s tempting to edit out the less-than-perfect attempts. But that’s not reality—especially when coaching and developing young horses.

Real training is about giving a horse the time and confidence to search for the right answers. When you turn jumping from a “job” into a game, you create a willing partner rather than simply a horse you’re riding.

Corazon is a highly intelligent and sensitive young gelding who, at just four years old, is already showing talent and maturity beyond his years. We’ve truly enjoyed working with him and are grateful to Emalee and Talley Meadows for the opportunity to collaborate on his development.

Stay tuned… the future is looking incredibly bright for this one. 😎
