Another Blue baby claims a World title! Dynamic Promises, 2009 buttermilk dun
colt by Dynamic In Blue and out of
Christi Schuckman's world-champion-producing
mare Pleasure Time Promis, won the Reserve World Champion title in Yearling
Longe Line at the American Buckskin Registry Assoication's World Show in Tulsa,
OK. This outstanding colt has been bred, raised, trained and shown by his
Amateur owner and won his first-time-out World level event against 14
of the
best in the Unityed States and Canada, many of which had professional big-name
trainers on the other end of the
line! What an exciting accomplishment! There's
nothing like the World Show level of competition to get the best out of
everyone, and we here at Stone Anvil Farm: Larry, Sunny, and of course,
Blue--congratulate Christi and Griffin on their achievement today at the ABRA
World Show in Tulsa. We're expecting win pictures any minute and will post them
up
as soon as they come through.
Dynamic Blue Cruiser and new owner Kassie Norton, aged 15, of Owasso, MI,
started their new show career together
with a real bang, winning top ten and top
five placings in several very tough classes. It was their first time together
for
most of these ABRA Congress events, and in spite of some unexpected
obstacles, they held it all together and came out with very respectable
placings. We are so proud of both of them, "Hank," being shown for the first
time by a new young equestrienne, and Kassie, who proved that she'd got what it
takes to go for the gusto! Congratulations!

Dynamic Blue Chip: "Dynamic Blue Chip, aka "Coco" was the darling of the 2009 Ohio State Buckskin Futurity, winning Reserve Champion Weanling Halter Mares as well as Reserve Champion Dun Factor!" This outstanding filly by
Dynamic In Blue and out of Scott and Tracy Flick's pleasure mare, Chiptease, (Zips Chocolate Chip), continues to show
the judges her awesome conformation, color, and charisma, and Blue wishes her and her owners the best of luck in the
2010 show season. "We can't wait to watch her go Longe Line!"
Dynamic Breeze, 2007 grulla colt by Dynamic In Blue, out of Ava
Gardner-Tillinghast's outstanding Dun Factor mare,
LD Show Breeze Lady,
captured, in August 2008, the prize most coveted by his breeder in her
twenty-five-years-plus of breeding and showing Dun Factor horses: The
International Buckskin Horse Association's World Champion title. "Beezer" earned
all but 3 of the points required for his Superior award as a yearling (no mean
feat in an all-ages, all genders event like DF!), as well as an ROM inn Yearling
Longe Line. He has also won several Grands at Stallion Halter, and is now in
training with Robin Murphy for his debut in Wester Pleasure. Congratulations to
Ava, Mike, and to Beezer's handlers,
Ben and Tamie Grandstaff, on an exciting
show campaign with this fine Blue youngster!
Congratulations to Kassie Norton and Dynamic Blue Cruiser, aka "Hank," on an
awesome weekend at the BHAM shows
last weekend (May 15-16). Stone Anvil Farm
just received word from Kassie's mom, Sherrie, that Kassie and Hank won
firsts
in Youth Hunter under Saddle, Youth Western Pleasure, and THREE--count 'em,
THREE firsts in Jr. Western
Pleasure, in classes of TWELVE horses, against the
trainers, the grownups, and all that! Showing the versatility of the Dynamic In
Blue genetics, Hank also carried his partner to several excellent placings in
Youth Hunt Seat Equitation,
Youth Horsemanship, and Jr. Hunter under Saddle!
Nothing like practically locking up your Register of Merit in one weekend, huh?!
Sherrie promises to send pictures asap, too!
Sure, we shouldn't brag, but this really demonstrates the
great good-mindedness
and trainability of Blue's get. When a kid, Novice, Amateur, or Select rider
gets together
with one of these youngsters and is willing to work at it, they
can have so much fun and fulfillment in showing,
competing, and achieving their
goals!
Way to go, Kassie!
Sally Creger Ghist reports on her Dynamic In Blue baby, Dynamic Story Kid, aka
"Cisco" (or "Moe" as he was known as a weanling around Stone Anvil Farm.)
Cisco/Moe made his big-boy national-points debut last weekend in Michigan
and
really showed 'em how much "Pretty" these Blue babies have! Congratulations to
Sally and Jim on this exciting introduction to the show pen! We know even more
excitement is to come when Ken gets him into the WP show pen, too!
Dynamic In Blue's yearling (2009) baby, "Dynamic Promis", out of the World
Champion-producing mare, "Pleasure Time Promis" owned and shown by Christi
Schuckman, Sun Prairie, Wisconsin. The video shows this fine buttermilk dun
yearling showing them how to get it "DUN" at the prestigious Tom Powers
Futurity, June, 2010. This was one of "Griffin's" first big shows in Yearling
Longe Line, and even with a little bobble he managed to get placed quite nicely
against some of the top yearlings, and some of the niggest names in the
so-called "Amateur" or "Non-Pro" owner-exhibitors in the United States!
Congratulations, Christi and Griffin!!!!
Dynamic Dun Blue, that gorgeous grulla yearling gelding by Dynamic In Blue out
of Valerie and Ted Morgan's super chestnut mare "This Lady's A Leaguer" just
swept another batch of four shows at Brookville, Ohio, on June 12 and 13th, with
NINE (count 'em, 9) First Place wins and SEVEN Reserves, including Amateur
Geldings,
Dun Factor, and Yearling Longe Line: There goes that famous Blue
"Color w/Halter w/Pleasure-Performance" thing again!
Valerie is an excellent Amateur owner/breeder/exhibitor who shows her own stock,
sometime with hubby Ted carrying the grooming bucket, and other times, not so
much, and she can testify to the beauty of that sweet, obedient, good-minded
disposition that Blue puts on his babies. "Ringo" just takes it all in, does
what she asks him to do, and looks absolutely gorgeous whether posing for the
Halter judges or showing off his smooth, fluid way of moving in Longe Line. What
more could any competitive pleasure horse exhibitor ever want?! Congratulations
again, Valerie and Ringo, on another winning weekend!
Watch for updated pictures of "Ringo" coming soon! This one is from before he
was even weaned!!!!
