2011

-
Hollywood Hot Spot's first foal crop is on the ground.  He had three handsome colts:  a bay few spot leopard out of a brown few spot mare, a dun snowcap colt out of a dun snowcap mare and a bay leopard colt out of a bay leopard mare (not owned by ASH).  All three are demonstrating that fantastic Woody personality that make him a barn favorite everywhere he goes.

- Kryptic has begun his competition career and is focusing on dressage at this time. 
On February 19, 2011 and with only 10 weeks under saddle young Kryptic attended his first dressage show (schooling) at Poplar Place in Hamilton, GA.  He showed Training Level, Test 1 with a good score and excellent comments from the judges including "incredible", "brilliant", "lovely" and "talented."  No doubt about it, Kryptic has a super competition career ahead of him.  You can see his dressage test video and four shorter videos from the following day when he was introduced to the cross country course and water complex.  See
Kryptic's page.

-Janine Lee has joined ASH as full time trainer.  She will be starting our youngstock under saddle and competing our stallions and other performance horses in the dressage ring in 2011.  See our current show schedule.
