What a Week – Happy Sales, Successful Shows, Educational Clinics & Major Milestones
Posted
We realize we’ve just posted a blog a week ago but so much has happened in the past week that it actually warrants an unplanned quick entry. Horses Sold – Bandini and Roadie Bandini Ace is one of those extraordinary young horses that we could see excelling in just about any discipline. Brave enough to event, quiet...
A Time of Transition at Tebogo
Posted
This week here in Virginia we swung from winter (23 degrees and howling winds) to summer (record breaking 91 degrees) and back to spring (of course including lovely April showers). All in the course of a week. It was enough to keep any concerned horseman on their toes as we always worry about our delicate charges in times of...
The 2013 Season Starts to Take Shape
Posted
As a horseman one is supposed to, at the very least, set some goals and make a plan. Horses will do what they will to those plans (go along peacefully and cooperatively or tear them asunder) but without them you’re lost. So every year around this time we sit down with the omnibus and a pile of prizelists , take a look...
Surviving Winter Tebogo Style
Posted
Winter is fun if you’re a skier. If you ride horses, not so much. It can be bleak. It can be downright painful when the temperature drops below freezing and the winds kick up into the double digit speeds. It can be lonely when it seems everyone you know is packing up their trailer and heading to warmer climates. It can,...
We are Grateful at Tebogo Sport Horses
Posted
If you follow us on Facebook, you’ve probably already seen our Thanksgiving Day post about the meaning of “Tebogo.” As we explained, “Tebogo” is a name popular in southern Africa, which means “we are grateful.” We chose it for many reasons, but in short, we liked the sound of it, and...
Comings, Goings, Waredaca, HITS Constitution Classic and More!

So much for our big promises not to let so much time go by between posts that writing anything meaningful or coherent becomes impossible. And so much for our apparently outrageous assurances that we would take new pictures to post. It’s nearly hopeless. The only way for us to get through this together…Bullet...
HITS Culpeper Showday National Recap
Posted
Blog posts about horse shows without pictures or videos are troubling (and boring), but Crumpet and Seattle both insist that their four-year old exploits and accomplishments be written about at once, not weeks later when the old-school photographer gets around to sending the hard copies in the snail mail. So a quick recap at...
“Good boooooyyy”: The soundtrack to our lives
Posted
This week was another series of firsts. First time cross country schooling for Eduardo and Pele. First time competing at a recognized horse trial for Stanley. And like little children going off on their first day of school, the boys marched forward, eyes wide, slightly nervous on the inside perhaps, but oh so brave and...
Upperville Proves Pitch Perfect
Posted
It’s the oldest horse show in the United States. It’s setting in the foothills of the Blue Ridge make for unparalleled beauty. It’s our very favorite horse show to spectate. But until this year, Tebogo has never had a horse compete there. We made up for lost time by taking five horses this year. And what fun...
Three Eventful Weeks
Posted
Before I get into the long list of what “the boys” have been up to, let me lead by updating on our singular mare- Pandora. Pandora’s First Avatar, a 6 year old OTTB, does not actually belong to Tebogo, but as Katie Adam’s main horse. She arrived here with Katie as a weedy, somewhat insecure 4 year old...
