Monday News and Notes from Success Equestrian


Greetings sports fans! It was a weekend where Ocala residents got to feel smug about their superior weather (but then remembered that they live in Ocala), Olympic tickets were booked, a pony motored around an advanced track, Michael Pollard won a few advanced sections, and Kentucky pretty much locked up the overall #1 NCAA seed thanks to Calipari’s coaching ability bankroll. Well before John gets wound up about telling the truth about his team, let’s have a look at those links.

If you are the one person that checks EN every day looking for a video on how to gun train your dog then today is your day my friend.  Joking aside the video features a cute puppy and for an extra special bonus there is a picture of horses galloping with a giraffe at the bottom of the page. [Gun Train


As many of you have heard, Megan Moore lost her beloved horse, The Grasshopper, on the cross country at Pine Top. Loosing a horse is the worst thing that can happen to us as riders. Megan shares a lovely tribute about Hopper. Be sure to have your kleenex ready. [Hopper


At the racehorse training project everyone was a “winner”. But Eric Dierks was the actual winner. This was a great idea that turned into an internet sensation. Read the whole story from our friends at the Chronicle. [Eric]


Silva Martin is out and about and having a great season. With scores in the 70% range, she is one to want to beat. Check out her (and Boyd’s) blog for the latest scores and updates. Gotta just love those Martins. [Silva
