Belles Are Blooming This Spring

Nicole and Isabella White and Mia Green had a great time in Wellington these past few weekends at the Equestrian Sport Production’s 2015 Spring Series. 

Mia Green was Circuit Champion on her new medium pony Brighton My Day in the children’s division, and got a first and second in the small pony division on Flower Girl and Crystal Acres Twinkle Toes.  She loves these ponies! 

Mia’s least favorite part of the show is the Handy.   She says “my brain can’t quite get it right yet even though Stefanie tries to make me memorize it a million times!” 

Mia wore her favorite good luck Belle and Bow hair bows, these are great bows that show our support for Danny and Ron’s rescue, since a portion of each sale go to helping dogs at the charity.  We have several of these bows left for sale!  Email Stefanie at Stefanie@ForgetMeNotFarmFL.com and we can get you some. 

Nicole White moved up from short stirrups to the small pony division this weekend, and Mia is thrilled to have her buddy with her in the same class.  She loves riding her new small pony, State of the Art.  Her favorite part of the show was getting great ribbons her very first time in the small division, and being able to show with Mia.  Nicole seems to enjoy jumping over fences herself as well as on her ponies! 

Isabella White moved up from the cross rail class to short stirrups and was reserve champion!  She loves riding Miss Australia, and her new pony Boyfriend.  The girls love riding with their trainer Stefanie Mazer, who is in their words is “really fun and nice.” 

These Belles are finally enjoying riding at their new barn, Forget Me Not Farm in Wellington, Florida  where we moved in this January.  It is on 10 acres and has plenty of room for lots of new animals.   We welcomed Rusty and Rose two pot bellied pigs, two ducks named Rocco and Honey, and a great little puppy named Lily (nickname Silly Lily) from Danny and Ron’s Rescue. 

Libbie Gordon had a great Winter Circuit In Ocala

Telyanu Ballerina and Libbie

This year I got to spend the winter down in Ocala! I got the chance to ride some really nice ponies, like Gametime, Her Highness, Saddle Sold Separately, Wooland’s Polar Bear, Costal Sunset, and Magic Word. I also got the chance to model and hack Devil Mint, Peterpotamus, and R Cinderella Man. I was really nervous about riding other peoples ponies but was a lot fun in the end. My ponies, Baby Blue, Tiffany Blue and Bieber, were also a lot of fun to! I had to work on a lot of things like shortening and lengthening but it all work out in the end because in ended up circuit champion in the smalls on Baby Blue and Reserve Circuit Champion on Tiffany Blue in the mediums. I was really excited because there were a lot of great competition.

This season at HITS i got to bring back one of my first small ponies, Telyanu Ballerina, back from injury. It was a long two years, but I finally got to shoer in the children's ponies at the end of circuit.  
In Ocala, I got the chance to spend time with my friends on and off of the show ground. I also got to meet a lot of new as well. It was a little frustrating going to the tutor Monday thru Thursday but it all worked out in the end because l was all caught up with school at the end of the circuit. 

Tiffany Blue and Libbie

The best part about the circuit was probably riding my first green pony, Glenhaven’s Astoria. This was the most fun part about Ocala because not only were the owners so supportive, but I qualified her for Pony Finals! Thank You to everybody for making this Hits so special. I can’t wait for Devon! 

See you at the shows!

Belles are on a roll in Wellington!

Mia and Stefanie

 It was a great weekend for the Belles of Forget Me Not Farm!  Mia Green won the Small Pony Hunter Classic on Miss Australia with a second round score of 85!  This was Mia’s first weekend moving up to the small pony division and she was up against some of the most talented small ponies and small pony riders at the ESP A show in Wellington.  Mia said “I can’t believe I won I thought I was going to do so badly!”

Miss Australia

Nicole White swept the short stirrup with a champion and reserve championship in the short stirrup hunters, and Isabella White received a championship in the cross rail division.  Nicole said “I loved jogging my pony Flower even though he sometimes doesn’t want to and I always love jumping Deja Blue!”   

True Colors

 Bella achieved another milestone this weekend too, she had her first fall, luckily she got right back on and wasn’t hurt at all!  She said “I love Deja Blue and my trainer Stefanie said if I fall off nine more times I will be an expert rider!”  Let’s hope that doesn’t happen . . . .

Summer Fun! By Belle Maggie J

This Blog comes to us from one of our Belle's Maggie J. She is having a great summer and we can't wait to see her in the medium pony hunters at Pony Finals next week. Good Luck Maggie! We will be cheering you on.

Summer Fun!

Hi everyone! My pony, Foxlair Fantasia, "Fancy" and I have been taking it kind of easy since Devon. We train at home and have been trail riding a lot too. We have fields with hills that we can ride in. It's beautiful and great for the ponies to be out of the ring. Here Fancy and I are practicing for the "Rainbow Pony Model Class!" I love how her tail turned out!

Bye for now....

From Devon To Norfolk Hunt a historical weekend

This weekend is home to some of the oldest horse shows in the Country. The very famous Devon Horse Show started in 1896 in Devon, PA and The Norfolk Hunt Horse show in Medfield, MA celebrated its 104^th year. Both of these shows have earned the designation of a USEF Heritage Competition which is reserved for those competitions that have been in existence for a quarter century or more, promoted and grown equestrian sport, and made a contribution to the community outside the gates of the horse show by achieving, maintaining and promoting the equestrian ideals of sportsmanship and competition. We were lucky enough to have riders wearing our beautiful bows and representing us in both of these prestigious shows.

We want to send out a big congratulations to Small Pony Hunter champion Zayna Rizvi and her pony Rollingwoods Knee Deep. She rode beautifully and took home the coveted small pony championship. Zayna also rode her other pony Rolling Stone in the small ponies and received great ribbons. Zayna was wearing a set of Lavender custom printed show bows made just for Devon with both of her ponies names on them. But Devon wasn’t all serious for this little rider, she also participated in the Pony Hunt teams and dressed up as a minon.

Also riding in the small ponies at Devon was our Belle, Maggie Junkin and her pony Foxlair Fantasia. They had great rides and got ribbons over fences and in the pony hunt teams. Maggie wore custom bows in Devon blue and looked fantastic. She also had a set of custom bows to match her shadbelly.  She was dressed up as a snowman from the Movie Frozen with her hunt team. They placed 2^nd! Foxlair Fantasia “Fancy” also competed in the leadline class with a little friend and placed 2^nd out of a very large crowd. Fun was had by all in this team.

Caroline Ellis and her pony Pride Rock did an amazing job showing in the medium pony hunters at Devon placing very respectably in her over fence classes. Caroline was wearing a set of custom shorty bows that she and her mother designed themselves. She looked like a pro with perfect braids and was spotted on the Chronicle of the Horse’s website with her chic look.

From Leadline to the small pony hunters our bows were spotted all over Devon! 

At The Norfolk Hunt show there were bows everywhere. It was a nice day on the grass hunting fields and everyone had a great day. The pet pony winner Nina Wordell and her pony Summer sported some Belle Bows with our signature pony on them. Looking fabulous! We were there to catch the action.

What a great weekend of shows and bows! If you want to be a part of our winning team please contact us. We are looking for more pony riders to join us.
