  • 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.

    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.

    THROUGH ENGLAND ON A SIDE-SADDLE PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Celia Fiennes | 96 pages | 02 Apr 2009 | Penguin Books Ltd | 9780141191072 | English | London, United Kingdom Sidesaddle - Wikipedia Ninth century depictions show a small footrest, or planchette added to the pillion. In Europe , the sidesaddle developed in part because of cultural norms which considered it unbecoming for a woman to straddle a horse while riding. This was initially conceived as a way to protect the hymen of aristocratic girls, and thus the appearance of their being virgins. However, women did ride horses and needed to be able to control their own horses, so there was a need for a saddle designed to allow control of the horse and modesty for the rider. The earliest functional "sidesaddle" was credited to Anne of Bohemia — The design made it difficult for a woman to both stay on and use the reins to control the horse, so the animal was usually led by another rider, sitting astride. The insecure design of the early sidesaddle also contributed to the popularity of the Palfrey , a smaller horse with smooth ambling gaits, as a suitable mount for women. A more practical design, developed in the 16th century, has been attributed to Catherine de' Medici. In her design, the rider sat facing forward, hooking her right leg around the pommel of the saddle with a horn added to the near side of the saddle to secure the rider's right knee. The footrest was replaced with a "slipper stirrup ", a leather-covered stirrup iron into which the rider's left foot was placed.

  • History of the Ormonde
    WELCOME TO THE ORMONDE GUESTHOUSE THE ORMONDE GUESTHOUSE HISTORY Former Railway Tavern public house, later renamed as the Ormonde tavern. Late 19th, early 20th century. Two storey, 3 bay semi symmetrical arrangement with projecting terminal end bays, timber framed gables to projecting bays. Slate roof, 1st floor timber framed. Ground floor Ruabon brick with stone dressings to window heads, cheeks and cills, casement windows with leaded transome lights. This building is now the Ormonde Hotel. "Ormonde" (1883–1904) was an English Thoroughbred racehorse, an unbeaten Triple Crown winner, generally considered to be one of the greatest racehorses ever. He also won the Champion Stakes and the Hardwicke Stakes twice. At the time he was often labeled as the 'horse of the century'. Ormonde was trained at Kingsclere by John Porter for the 1st Duke of Westminster. His regular jockeys were Fred Archer (who features on the sign outside the hotel in the correct colours) and Tom Cannon. After retiring from racing he suffered fertility problems, but still sired Orme, who won the Eclipse Stakes twice. It has been suggested that "Ormonde's" sire was the model for "Silver Blaze" in the Sherlock Holmes story of the same name, first published 1892. In the same way, "Colonel Ross" in the story is said to be based on one of the Grosvenors - the first Duke of Westminster. Eaton Stud bred "Ormonde" with Fred Archer up. Fred Archer (1857-86) had 21 Classic winners and was Champion Jockey 13 of his 17 years, before tragically committing suicide in 1886. To keep his weight down for racing he used "Archer's mixture", a powerful laxitive made up by Dr J.
