Sandy
Sandy is our wonderful Belgian mare. She is about 17 hands tall. This big girl can't get enough of her vaulting family! She enjoys getting attention and her treats at the end of practice. She carries a variety of our vaulters in individual freestyle as well as Pas De Deux and team. Beause she is getting stiffer with age, she is now a walk and trot horse only!
Kittil
Kittil is our Norwegian Fjord whose last job was as a cart horse in Canada but he has switched over to vaulting quite well. He carries our smaller vaulters. He loves beach rides, jumping and negotiating trail obstacles when he isn't vaulting. He is smart and unflappable and maybe just a touch lazy!
Skyler
Skyler arrived in California in 2021 in early October. He was chosen for his laid back personality and his balanced trot and canter.
Skyler is a flashy Shire/Quarter Horse cross with four white stockings. He looks like a Warmblood but has a draft horse disposition! Eventually, he will be carrying our vaulters at both trot and canter.
Mooch
Mooch moved to Morning Star Farm in January 2022. He is quite the character! He came from Tennessee where he did a little bit of everything... roping, trail, tricks, guns shot off his back and you name it! So far he loves the vaulters and all the attention. If we can figure out his cue, he will bow to the judge with the vaulters!
Tanita 1996 - 2021
Tanita was our adorable Norwegian Fjord who had been with us 14 years. Tanita crossed the rainbow bridge on September 1st, 2021 leaving behind many broken hearts. We miss her terribly and hope that she is running in the green meadows of horse heaven with those who have gone on before her. Primo, Dillon, Daisy and Star.
Primo 2003 - 2020
Primo was our Percheron X Morgan cross, who we lost in March 2020 to colic from a strangulating lipoma. This tall, dark, and handsome boy carried many of our vaulters in compulsories as well as freestyle and loved his job. His passing truly devastated our team and broke many hearts.
