007 is one of those horses people come to watch!!!
He’s a little guy with BIG maneuvers, and time after time, he puts his heart and soul into every run. He did it again today in Tulsa.

226.5 in the 100X & NARS OPEN DERBY.
He’s the kind of horse that makes a trainer bring his best and he’s a SHOW HORSE. Congratulations, Sandy Vargo. I appreciate the ride.

Desiré and Ryan

These two have been putting in the work with groundwork and learning the ins and outs of handling horses, so we switched it up with a little trail ride!
And Ryan got in the saddle for the first time ever! 🐴👏
Nothing fancy, just good horses, good company, and making memories. So proud of these two!

Thinking about branching out a little and offering a few clinics in the near future! 🤔

I’d love to gauge some interest before I start putting anything together. I’m thinking clinics focused on reining, ranch riding, horsemanship, and helping riders better understand their horses and improve their overall program.

If a clinic is something you’d be interested in attending, drop a comment or shoot me a message! Let me know what you’d like to learn about and what area you’re located in.

If there’s enough interest, we’ll make it happen!

The hard days don't define you.
The way you keep moving forward does.

Sofia & Katie.
Katie Coykendall took a chance on an off the track thoroughbred, and this team has come so far. We couldn’t be more proud of them! Watching their confidence, partnership, and progress grow has been so rewarding.

So excited to see what’s next for these two! 💙

One of the newest faces in our program, America Great Again, aka America. 🇺🇸

This 3 year old filly by Gunner Dun It Again is owned by Cindy Ford and she is an absolute powerhouse. One to watch in the show pen in 2027! 🔥

We are incredibly thankful for the opportunity to have her in our program and to have supporters like Cindy on our team.
