Westlord (Milo) – This big, black sweetheart is the barn caretaker and an outstanding Schoolmaster. An Irish Thoroughbred, his 17.1 hands look a bit intimidating, but at 21 years old, he knows how to take care of his riders, never giving more than what you ask. Bombproof to a T, even the beginners can’t help but have fun on his back. If he feels his rider become unstable, his default is to slow down. His talents at half passes and flying changes keep more advanced riders focused as well. He has a distinguished history and has travelled the world doing CDI**** 3-day events. He is privately owned and is used in Shanderhof’s lesson program.

Griffin – This 16.2 hand bay Dutch Warmblood thinks he’s actually a dog. If you let him, he’d crawl into your lap and demand that you rub his belly. He’s been described as noble, curious, affectionate but also incredibly talented. At 21 years old, he acts like he’s 15. He’s not for the very beginners, but is used in many lessons, from novice to advanced riders. He’s also a Schoolmaster, and has taught many riders the amazing feeling of riding a horse from the back to the front, becoming light in the hand. You don’t forget a ride on Griffin very easily!
