Meet the horses of Heavenwood Farm!
We take pride in the quality of horses available to learn on here at our farm. We have spent a great deal of time searching for nice horses that compliment our lesson program and help our students learn and grow in their riding. We hope you will fall in love with them just as we have!
Cosmo is a 11 y/o Pintaloosa who is fairly new to our teaching program. He had no riding experience when he came to us, but has become a real solid citizen and is quite the gentleman. He is now working happily teaching intermediate/advanced riders and competing at Training level!
Mello joined our crew right after Marshall's passing. He is a timid little guy so we are spending some time really letting him get to know and be comfortable with all of us. He absolutely adores kids though!
Ridge is a 19 y/o Thoroughbred who is co-owned by Heavenwood and Diane Wilkison. He is a nice all around horse who we use for intermediate and advanced riders. He was trained for steeplechase racing so his favorite activity is jumping. He is the ham of the barn!
High quality and safe horses are our top priority.
Scoop
Scoop is a 23 y/o Quarter Horse who is actually a retired racehorse. We've fallen in love with this gentle soul and his sweet face! He is part of our beginner and intermediate program because of his patient and gentle nature and his slow way of going. Although he may be a little lazy, he is quite the fancy mover!
"You're the One" - Bash
Bash is a 23 y/o Thoroughbred who we bought in February 2015. He is a gentle soul and has true talent for jumping and is a true pleasure to trail ride. He is forgiving, but also sensitive and he loves attention and treats. He has been a wonderful addition to our program!
"Quite A Charmer" - Chance
Chance is a 17 y/o Thoroughbred who we are leasing for our lesson program. He is a sweet guy who is brave and sensitive. At 15.2 hands, he is a great size for many of our smaller riders.
"Lucky Bandit" - Lucky
Lucky is an 8 y/o Miniature Horse who joined Marshall after our move to the new facility. We bought him unbroke and have worked hard to give him the education he needed to teach kids to ride. He is a sweet little guy who has shown us that he really enjoys the attention he gets from his young riders. He loves playing mounted games!
Miller is a 10 y/o Thoroughbred owned by Heavenwood Farm. He acts like a big puppy and loves attention. Miller has been off of the track since October 2019 and is currently Steph's primary competition horse and also used for some select lessons. He is very easy going, but can also have a little get up and go. Steph affectionately calls him Baby Shark!
"Millers Cave" - Miller
"Magic Twist" - Newt
Newt is a 22 y/o Thoroughbred owned by Heavenwood Farm. He is over 17 hands and is truly a gentle giant. Newt is happy to teach all levels of riders, but has shown us that his favorite activity is jumping.
"Taste the Rainbow" - Skittles
Skittles is a 27 y/o POA pony owned by Heavenwood Farm. He is about 14.1 hands and is a friendly old guy. Skittles is still quite happy to tote around our smaller beginner/intermediate riders. His favorite thing to teach riders is steering!
"Stuck on You" - Echo
Echo is Steph's 4 y/o Thoroughbred that she acquired as a 2 y/o. He has been spending a lot of time growing up and is finally ready to start doing some training. His fun and loveable personality is contagious. He will eventually be Steph's primary mount.
