A rare sighting of the trainer on feeding duty. 🎻🤣

While Ryan might not be the usual face behind the feed bucket, making sure our horses get the best care is always a priority.

We’re thankful to have Nutrena Feed and Platinum Performance as part of our daily routine, helping us keep our horses feeling their best.

And a special shoutout to the crew who actually keeps everyone fed around here. We appreciate you! 😂

There’s something about the everyday rides that never gets old.

No crowds, no scores. Just time in the saddle, good horses, and the opportunity to keep getting a little better.

These are the days that make everything else possible.

Some horses leave a mark that goes far beyond the show pen. 🤍

Leave Em Spooked, better known as Midas, closed out his final derby with the highest score of his career—a 223.5!

🏆 Level 2 Open Derby Champion
🏆 Level 3 & 4 Open Derby Reserve Champion

Bred by Morgan Reiners, raised in Robert Peterson’s pasture, and trained by Ryan as a two-year-old, Midas has been part of this journey from the very beginning.

Over the past six years, he’s given us more than we could have ever asked for. He was the horse that helped Robert surpass $100,000 in lifetime earnings, and later carried him past the $200,000 milestone.

Now, at eight years old, he closes out his derby career with his best score yet.

There’s something incredibly special about watching a horse you’ve known since the beginning grow into everything you hoped he could be.

Midas holds a special place in all of our hearts, and while this chapter may be coming to an end, the memories and everything he’s given us will stay with us forever.

What a horse. What a journey. And what a way to finish. 🤍

A pretty great week so far for our Non Pros at the Low Roller.

Kjersten Davis and TR Tailor Made came away Champions in the Non Pro, Masters Non Pro & Prime Time Non Pro, earning over $1,800!

Nici Hanson and Tha Real McCoy were Co-Champions in Novice Horse Non Pro Levels 1 & 2 and Reserve Champions in Level 3, earning $1,500!

We’re incredibly proud of these two and the work they continue to put into their horses. They’re great competitors, but even better horsewomen and teammates—and that’s what we’re most proud to have representing our program.

Congratulations, Kjersten and Nici! 👏
