Cairn O'Mount Stables

Spring has been a busy time at Radnor Hunt Stables. Since our official move in March, we have been busy filling the barn and adding many new clients, staff, and horses in addition to showing and eventing.

Devon update:

Congratulations to all those who competed at Devon!!! We had four riders make their Devon debut. Avery and Grace both made a picture perfect presentation during their lead line class. This was followed by a great ride by Hannah, Lisa, and Morgan who teamed up for Hunt Teams taking 5^th in a big class. Not, of course, to be outdone by Susie, Gillian, and Doug whose last ride won the Hunt Teams Class. Right back into the ring for Amanda and Susie for the Parent Child class and another win! Quite a nice day for Radnor Hunt Stables...

Special Recognition:

Congratulations to Gillian King who moved up to Intermediate this spring with Isabella at Plantation. They not only completed, but finished second in a competitive division.

Gillian King & Rhapsody won their division at Plantation in May.

Lisa Adams & Preston won their division at Fair Hill in May.

Amanda Clement & Wonder also won their division at Fair Hill in May.

Grace Opperman and Avery Cascarino both won classes in lead-line at Valley Hill, finishing Champion and Reserve Champion in their practice show for Devon. Avery also had a very special spring with the arrival of her new pony Puff!
