Today's early morning schooling features RF Artisan, 4 year old Appaloosa Sport Horse gelding. (BJC Asher Seven X RF Mariachi X Meisterwind). Bred by Rivervale Farm, he is owned by Micaela Raymond. This gelding has "Event horse" written all over him and he is very keen and forward. So his sessions focus on keeping him relaxed and making things easy and enjoyable for him. He is just beginning his cross country jumping.

So handsome!
