Paradox Westerly

Paradox Westerly spent the summer of 2018 at Round Robin Farm  in VT with Bekki Read starting her under saddle and hacking up hill and down.  During the winter months we went back to Kim Meyer at Starlit Hollow Farm in Brentwood NH for groundwork.

In the spring of 2019 Westerly is really greying out. Meagan Morrell has agreed to ride her at 4.0 Farm in Stratham NH for me this summer.

Paradox Westerly has developed into a tall, sweet, elegant filly who is a quick-study. She spent 2017 learning from Kim Meir of Starlit Hollow Farm, and from Emily Shields at Dry Brook Farm Connemaras in Harwinton, CT. 

She did in-hand work and long-lining with Emily.

Westerly then went to the 2017 ACPS Region 1 Show with Emily and won the in-hand trail class with " lots of support from the handler."

In August she spent a couple of weeks working on her lunging skills with Meagan Morrell at 4.0 Farm in Stratham NH. Good girl Westie.

She is home for the winter and plans to be bred in 2018 and then go to Round Robin Farm in Tunbridge VT to be backed by Bekki Read in the summer of 2018 and promoted to riding pony.
