Fans of Orb were surely pleased to see his pilot Joel Rosario find the winner=s circle aboard Pegram, Watson and Weitman=s Fiftyshadesofhay (Pulpit) in Friday=s GII Black-Eyed Susan S., but they will probably be hoping for a slightly less eventful trip in today=s Preakness. Fiftyshadesofhay was adding blinkers for trainer Bob Baffert, but she showed a new dimension here, settling kindly in sixth of seven while an eager Maracuya (Big Brown) put up honest splits. The NEXT PHASE FOR ORB 2-1 shot began to inch closer as Stuart Janney III and Phipps Stable=s Orb (Malibu the field bunched entering the far Moon) faces eight foes as he seeks to keep the racing turn, but three-deep longshot world=s Triple Crown hopes alive in today=s 138th Marathon Lady (Graeme Hall) running of the GI Preakness S. looked like she would be tough Fiftyshadesofhay (outside) Little has gone wrong for the to collar as she swept up to Horsephotos homebred in 2013, with four challenge for command.

  • Equestrian Studies Western Equipment List
    Equestrian Studies Western Equipment List Equestrian students are required to own and maintain the following equipment for their personal use in riding classes. Our faculty recognizes this list, though extensive, is not a complete list of equipment needed by professionals in our industry and is intended to accommodate the basic needs of students at the beginning of their careers. Substitution of some items is possible; however, the specific equipment listed below is recommended. During our first week of the academic year the incoming class tours local vendors for the purpose of acquiring supplies and equipment. Many students choose to leave the bulk of their personal gear at home and acquire a set of school equipment during the shopping days. Local vendors typically give discounts to RMC students on the items they purchase during the tours. If students have any questions, we recommend waiting until the faculty can assist in the purchasing process. We have strong opinions about what works best in our program and can best guide our students toward appropriate choices after the school year is underway. All personal gear should be clearly and indisputably labeled. Brass tags or plates riveted to leather tack are recommended. More economical “dog tags” can be purchased at a local PetSmart and work well to identify the owner. Additionally, black permanent markers can provide effective labeling of various items. Students may choose to color coordinate their gear using patterned duct tape or spray paint to create a distinctive “brand” on their equipment. Rider apparel Students need to manage their personal attire with a balance of professionalism in concert with practicality for weather conditions and budget.

  • Jec Ballou and Siobhan Saunders with Freyja (Photo: Bill Gore Photography) PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE by Ben Volk, Ride and Tie Association President
    Second place team in the short course at the Wild West race: Jec Ballou and Siobhan Saunders with Freyja (Photo: Bill Gore Photography) PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE by Ben Volk, Ride and Tie Association President FORT BRAGG OR BUST! AUGUST 24, 2013 Well folks you voted, and the results are in: Fort Bragg, CA was selected as the site of the 2013 World Champi- onship Ride & Tie over the more southerly location of Cuyamaca, CA. Some of you may recall that Fort Bragg was the site of the 2004 Championship; but do you remember who won the race in 2004? Of course it was none other than Jim Howard riding Magic Sirocco and teaming with Dennis Rinde. The team covered the 34 mile course in 4 hours and 1 minute to beat the second place team of Brandi Page and Laurie Wilson by 23 minutes. Rounding out the top 3 were Jim Brown and Russ Kiernan. There were 32 teams in the 34-mile long course that year and 7 teams in the 17-mile short course. Remarkably only one team in each distance did not finish. Best Condition was won by the 3rd place team riding Yaquar Adonai. Fast forward to August 24, 2013. We are camped at the beautiful Simcha Ranch located 7 miles from Fort Bragg in Mendocino County, CA. We have 40 teams registered and are planning for 10 more before the race starts. We are camped adjacent to the endurance riders who will be competing in the Mendocino Magic Endurance Ride at the same time. We are hoping that some of the endur- ance riders will catch Ride & Tie fever and decide to jump off their horse for a while and join us for a Ride & Tie.
