Leased

Once in a Blue Moon (a.k.a "Blue")

Foal Date: 1/1/2012

Low 5 Figures Lease / Mid-Five Figures Purchase

Once in a Blue Moon (“Blue”) is sadly for sale as his owner has outgrown him.

He has taken his kid from the Short Stirrup to the Large Green Pony Division in less than two years where he qualified for Pony Finals in the Large Green Division his first time out and the Equitation Medal.

He was used in two IEA competitions (regular season and regionals) this year where he did a fabulous job. He brought many of his riders to the top ribbons (including 1 Zone qualifying round).

Blue has also been used to teach a beginner (kid’s mom) starting with lead-line walking lessons through walk-trot-canter.

He has his lead changes and jumps a 10 every time! He knows his job, is easy, honest, brave, and great to have around the barn. He is the same pony at home or away and does not peek at jumps. He has good ground manners and loads and stands well.
​
He is currently ranked 4th in the Zone 7 Large Green Division.

USEF# 5657178

Can be seen at Southwest Showdown at Great Southwest Equestrian Center Sept. 19-25th.

When you continue to raise the next generation of When you continue to raise the next generation of horsemen/horsewomen in the industry, you can't help but sit back and be in awe. The amount of collegiate level riders (NCEA and IHSA), trainers, and industry professionals that have come out of our program is astounding. Someone has to create the important individuals in our sport, not just the horses, and I'm happy to be a part of so many of their stories! Ava is a senior in high school and now beginning to braid. Braiders are the unsung heros in this industry and frankly a dying art. We are so proud of you @avablankenship42 !!
