Team RMF would like to announce a few new horse and rider combinations that you are sure to see in the Winner's Circle soon:
 Isabelle Henriquez on the purchase of the Champion Medium Pony, Trenton from Madeline Dillabough. This up and coming pair were recently champion in the Short Stirrup at the Woodside Spring Classic, and we just know that this duo will be leaving their mark on Pony rings everywhere.
Madeline Dillabough on the purchase of the wonderful Small Junior Hunter/Equitation horse Gameboy from Jessica Tali. What a great way to make the transition from pony to horse! Watch for them as rising stars in a Hunter ring near you.
We are thrilled to be keeping both of these lovely animals in the Team RMF program, and are sure they will continue in their winning ways. Congratulations!
Congratulations to Carrie Cella of Estancia Equestrian on the lease of the fabulous Equitation Horse, Bradley. You have always been one of our favorite competitors, and know that the two of you are going to be superstars!
We would also like to welcome Catherine Harvey and Rhys Farms, LLC's newest imports Amber Van Spieveld and Loriot. 'Amber' is a 10 year old Belgian warmblood mare that had most recently been competing with Hanno Ellerman of Estonia as his Nation's Cup mount. With a strong start in Northern California and a Canadian Summer tour ahead of them, Nicole and Amber hope to be making their World Cup Debut this fall. 'Loriot' is an 8 year old Westphalen stallion by Lancer III and will be campaigned in the Hunter, Jumper and Equitation rings. His amazing temperament and athletic jumping style are sure to make him a judge, rider, and breeder's favorite.
