Marley is Nicole's horse. She has been in the sport forever, but after serious injuries, she stays on the safe side. She can jump high heights, I've seen her do it. But She CHOOSES not to, so it's rare to see her doing this stuff with Marley. He has some leadership issues & tends to throw his weight around, but has come a long way.
As for Dart, he won 3 1st place ribbons & 2 2nds at his 1st show this weekend.
Best time 36.43 over 8 2'6" oxers. Now he gets he should do it right the 1st time!

Hey Guys! This is Brittany. for those who don't know me, I'm the one riding Dart... the spastic Arab. I actually started training him in the summer. At that time, he literally didnt think it was possible to canter with me on his back. He learned otherwise obviously.
We started jumping him in August or September.... where he earned his ring name, "Spaz N' Dart". He would refuse the jump, and when he finally went over it, he would knock it over and then.... well, you know the name...

Marley used to be known as Kaffee when he was owned by Melissa. I forget who his new owner is but he seems to be coming along nicely.

Awesome! This looked like it was tons of fun! I'm really sorry to hear about Jessie's knee; that completely sucks. Who is Marley? That's a new one for me...

Great job ladies! It's awesome to see your progress--it's awesome that you're brave enough to put up your "learning moments." :)
I hope Jessie is okay!! I enjoyed this video. It seems like everyone was in that ring except me! :-P Of course, I especially enjoyed seeing you on Charm. You guys did a nice job! How come Alison wasn't in the beginning of the video? Timmy probably didn't make mistakes! Hehe! I have to say, those Arabians are spastic jumpers! Hopefully I will see everyone and ride this summer.

I'm happy you enjoyed the video! Sorry it was so long.
Fisrt off is an update on Jessie...she tore her ACL and could have further damages to her knee...not so good.
Timmy and Alison jumped before but I didn't have my camera up and ready in time! They're too fast! But they did do well, lol.I can't wait to see you when you come visit!
