Current Team
Nairobi
2018, Bay, KWPN Mare. "Nairobi" will be the one to beat in the Junior/Amateur 1m-1.25m. She is a quick, compact, sportscar-like type that wants to jump clear and win. Nairobi is very brave and game but also a cool customer in the ring. She was imported in Fall 2024 and already has a long list of wins in the US. Her accolades include winning both 1.10m classes in the International Stadium at Tryon Fall, Champion in the 1.10m at Atlanta Fall I, winning the 1.15m Mini Prix at GHJA Finals and winning the Open 1.20m Classic at Aiken December II. She always takes a great picture, is soft in the bridle and has miles with an amateur. She has the best brain and will trail ride quietly by herself, play in the water at a creek or pond, and jump under the lights in a costume. Nairobi is ready for a kid or adult looking to win in the jumper ring!
