It was a beautiful week down in Lexington, VA for the Virginia Barrel Classic. While it wasn’t quite the teams week everyone had solid runs! Gauge also was a superstar experiencing his first big boy barrel race and we are so excited for his future!

We all take a breather this coming weekend before heading to the Chesapeake Classic at a new arena!

This past Sunday was a busy day at Circle R Arena with a bunch of the team running!

Brooke and Boo Who Lolli had a little tough luck learning a new bit and caught the first coming out but had a great working run.

Ember and Fire Breathin Dallas had a good solid run to finish just one out of the money in the sidepot and finish Open and Youth 4D

Joy and Rackateer’s Dandy Jet made their debut and had a clean run to finish Open and Youth 4D

Morgan and Suni Diamond Delight had a little tough luck with two knocks but had some improvements from their last race!

It was a busy day but a great one with friends and the team! Now we turn our attention to the Virginia Barrel Classic next week!

Happy Birthday to the heart of VPH&T! 🎉

Today we celebrate someone who pours everything she has into her horses, her riders, and our program. Brooke isn’t just a trainer but the kind of person who shows up early, stays late, and never cuts corners when it comes to her students and horses. Her work ethic speaks for itself, but it’s her dedication that truly sets her apart.

From the smallest wins to the biggest breakthroughs, she’s right there in everyone’s corner helping push , support, and celebrate every step of the way. The impact she has on her riders and friends goes far beyond the arena, and it doesn’t go unnoticed.

Happy Birthday, Brooke! 🥳🎈🎊

It was a cold but good day at the first NBHA held at Little Drummer Farm this past Saturday.

Brooke and Boo Who Lolli had a little tough luck in their run with Boo playing it safe but had a clean run to finish in the Open 2D

Bryan and his horse Slim Shady went to their first NBHA and despite a timer malfunction they came back in to win the Open 4D! We’re so excited to see what the future has in store for them!

It was an amazing but short weekend at the Speed Horse Bonanza this past weekend! The goal of this weekend was exposure for Gauge so we opted to give Boo the weekend off and bring Jet instead incase we needed to pony or have a friend ride around with him. Both horses were amazing!

Brooke and Rackateer’s Dandy Jet ✈️ shaved off 2s off her last run here a few years ago and came home with a big payday! Jet took 3rd Open 4D and won the Ladies and Prime 4D to take home over $500+!

Gauge aka SRB Dodgin Bullets was a rockstar his first away show. He was amazing walking around and riding and took staying overnight like a champ!

It was a huge success all around! Now to rest this coming weekend for the team!

This past Saturday we had our most local race yet at the amazing Moomau Horse Farm for their first race! The Spring Classic was a huge success with a massive turnout! We had to take two trailers to fit everyone!

Brooke and Boo Who Lolli 🍭 beat their personal best on a standard and took some money home in the adult side pot.

Morgan and Suni Diamond Delight 💎 had their first ever race and had a great day and run!

Ember and Fire Breathin Dallas 🔥 beat their own personal best on a standard as well!

SRB Dodgin Bullets 🔫 came as well to take in the sights and rode around like a great baby!

It was a gorgeous day for a race and a huge success! This weekend we head to VA for the Speed Horse Bonanza with Racketeers Dandy Jet and SRB Dodgin Bullets!

04/07/2026

This weekend we had an amazing race day to kick off the 2026 season!

Despite rider error at the first Brooke and Boo Who Lolli hung in there for 5th in the Open 2D (11th overall out of 65), and 2nd 2D for Prime and Ladies and some pocket change.

Ember and Fire Breathin Dallas had a great first run with one of their best times to finish in the Open 4D and just out of the money in the Youth 4D.

SRB Dodgin Bullets also took his first big boy trip and was amazing at the show all day at the trailer and even rode around by himself!

We are in full swing now and will be back at it this weekend at a new arena!

𝙔𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙝𝙤𝙧𝙨𝙚 𝙠𝙣𝙤𝙬𝙨.

They know when you’re nervous.
They know when you’re doubting.
They know when you’re thinking “I hope this goes well” instead of knowing it will.

You can’t fake confidence to a 1,200 lb animal.

That hesitation going to the first?
They feel it.

That split second where you pull instead of ride?
They feel it.

That moment you stop riding with intention and start riding not to mess up?
They feel it.

And then people say
“my horse just wasn’t on today.”

No.
Your horse was reacting to YOU.

Because here’s what people don’t want to hear…

Your horse doesn’t get to choose confidence.
They borrow it from you.

So if you go in unsure
they go in timid.

If you go in hesitant
they get tight.

If you go in hoping
you’re already behind.

This isn’t about being perfect.
It’s about being prepared.

Confidence doesn’t come from wishing for a good run…
it comes from putting in the work so many times that muscle memory takes over.

Your horse doesn’t need you to be lucky.
They need you to be certain.

Because at the end of the day

𝙏𝙝𝙚𝙮’𝙧𝙚 𝙚𝙞𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙧 𝙧𝙪𝙣𝙣𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙤𝙛𝙛 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙡𝙚𝙖𝙙𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙝𝙞𝙥… 𝙤𝙧 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙡𝙖𝙘𝙠 𝙤𝙛 𝙞𝙩.

A good way to test your babies brain? Ride them in 30+mph wind gusts and see how they handle it! The brain on him is something special!

We are so excited for the world to be seeing more of “Gauge” this summer. This amazing c**t hasn’t been sat on since Jan 9, today being the first time since then and his third time in total and he acted like we never missed a day. We are so excited for his future and for him to shine like the athlete he was born to be!
