Primeval ,

"evey" .

thirteen , frederiksborg , mare , all events .

Evey stands at a leggy 16.1 hands high. Odd for a Frederiksborg, she has a bay coat and has minimal sabino markings that include a white face and four white socks. Known to be very spooky, as well as energetic, she is recommended for only the more experience riders. Though being hard to handle, many say she is worth it. The way through her heart is through food; she definitely remembers those that feed her.

Main Rider: None
Secondary Rider: None

Greased Lightning ,

"greaser" .

nine , quarter horse cross , gelding , all events .

Greaser doesn't have any special markings, but he is an unusual dapple grey tobiano. He is extremely calm and level-headed. The trainers generally use the term "bomb-proof" to describe him. Greaser is the horse that the less advanced or shaken riders use to begin to build their confidence. Be warned, however; he does love to run out on fences if he thinks you aren't paying much attention, so keep a firm hand over the jumps. Falling from a 17 hand high horse isn't exactly comfortable.

Main Rider: None
Secondary Rider: None

His Grace ,

"duke" .

eleven , quarter horse , gelding , pleasure/hunter/dressage .

17.1 hands high, he is what you would call a "gentle giant". Lazy and sweet, don't let his down to earth personality fool you; he can be just as spooky and nervous as the next horse if he feels the need to be. Due to his somewhat unpredictable manner, he is more for the intermediate to advanced riders, or those who are stuck in the middle looking to polish their skills. Being used mainly as a hunter and pleasure horse, he responds very well to leg and has a soft mouth. He's been known to get very testy with those that have a heavy hand.

Main Rider: None
Secondary Rider: None

Anaconda ,

"anna" .

twelve , welsh cob cross , mare , dressage/eventing/jumping/hunter.

Anna is a large pony at 14.2 hands high, but is what her fans refer to as a 'flying shrimp'. Her size doesn't stop her in the face of a jump even taller than her head; one must merely hold on and enjoy the ride. She's quite flashy in the pleasure ring due to her bright white stripe and four socks. Despite her sweetness in the paddock, Anna is a typical mare, as she is stubborn and will flat out refuse to do as told if not asked the correct way or simply refuse to do something because she can. Though she is not naturally spooky, she can often startle at harsh commands.

Main Rider: None
Secondary Rider: Bluet Magnolia Brier

Ragnarok ,

"reggie" .

seven , warmblood cross , gelding , all events .

A standard 15.3 hand high bay, Reggie has both a stripe and snip with four white pasterns that are quite difficult to keep clean. Over the flat he is calm; when you point him to a jump, however, he will often begin to give one trouble, for he is not too fond of jumping. The man that taught him to jump used the cruel method of rapping his legs to get him to lift them higher. Reggie now overjumps and has lost his ability to find distances on his own. He is recommended for only advanced jumpers.

Main Rider: None
Secondary Rider: None

Topless ,

"thomas" .

twelve , trakhener , gelding , all events .

Thomas has a short attention span and needs to be focused to deliver. Standing at 15.3 hands high, he is all legs--and he tends to trip over these legs quite often. He is the colt that never quite grew into his body, and acts just as awkward until you remind him how to act. It can take quite a bit of effort on the rider's part, but he has no other real vices. Take care when jumping him; you need to remind him when to jump or else he'll get too close and be unable to make it over, forcing him to refuse or run out.

Main Rider: None
Secondary Rider: None

Mama Bear ,

"mama" .

ten , welsh cob cross , mare , eventing/jumpers/dressage/hunter.

Just like her sister Anna, Mama will jump just about anything. She is larger, however, standing at just over 15 hands high. As her name suggests, she is a true maternal figure; even when being naughty, if she feels you begin to fall she will try her hardest to keep you on her back. When not under saddle, however, she's quite aggressive and a pain to tack up.

Main Rider: Bluet Magnolia Brier
Secondary Rider: None

Treble Clef ,

"clef" .

four , hanoverian , gelding , hunter/pleasure/dressage .

Clef has only just recently matured to be a small horse at 15 hands. He is young, yet very willing to learn. He definitely knows his job is in the ring. Still, he only just began this job and often gets confused with different riders. Larger fences make him quite nervous, and he will often chicken out and refuse the jump. His rider simply has to be patient with him and be tenacious. Luckily for most riders, he hasn't learned any nasty tricks yet. Just be prepared for him to think that the fly spray is going to kill him, or that the hose is really a giant snake.

Main Rider: Alexandra Desmino
Secondary Rider: None
