Looks like Riverside and Grafton Ridge are moving to Coker.
Glad to know it sounds like they’re planning to keep Coker as a horse farm. Yay.
My voice to text initially wrote that as Kocher, which gave me a bad flashback to the day some years back when there was a little confusion about whether I was shipping a pony to Kocher Farm or Coker Farm.
Luckily, the mixup came to light before I had driven very far. Lol.
I recommend McIntyre Show Stable in Long Island. Amazing facility and wonderful boutique hunter jumper show barn. If in Manhattan you shouldn’t get hit with any tolls.
Hi! I am an adult and ride with my twins at Stony Lane. We recently moved into Old Salem Farm, so location wise it’s great in that it’s off the main highway and has a lot of home show opportunities. It’s a small group of adults and juniors, and we do all the big venues. We have a mix of hunters, jumpers and equitation riders. I do the AAs but would love to do the AOs someday. She has helped me bring along my hunter and also my daughter’s horses.
The last two years we have gone to Ocala, but in the past the barn went to WEF for years. It’s really based on what the clients want and Lisa is always open to trying new venues or switching things up.
Grafton Ridge is great too; they just moved to Coker Farm! They have an adult who does the AOs and goes to Devon, etc. Riverside /Brooke Baldwin is also there and has a lot of hunter experience.
I wholeheartedly second this! 2nd & 3rd generation horsemen. Hannah Isop is perfection in the irons, and Susie and Tracy Freels handle all the training and day to day care of the horses in North Salem NY and WEF in the winter. The horses always come first.
