Trainers
Katrine Nielsen
Katrine focuses her training programs on finding a balanced relationship between horse and rider. She has successfully shown her own horses in 3-day Eventing through training level, yet her competition record does not reflect the extent of her riding experience. Her five years as a working student and groom for Olympian Amy Tryon gave her an abundance of experience schooling preliminary and intermediate level work on several horses, and helps to drive her goals to this day. A large part of her riding love comes from restarting and shaping the future of OTTB’s and other young horses which she has been doing since 1998.
Equine Talent
Secret Command
Secret (lovingly nicknamed "Monster") is a 2010 OTTB originally sourced by Laurie Canty from Leigh Gray's Thoroughbred Rehab Center Inc. Secret ran his last race in 2016 and arrived in Laurie's barn October of that same year where he started his slow winter transition. In March of 2017 after taking a ride on Secret I decided to purchase the little superstar as my next prospect. So far Secret has proven to be willing and brave with a love for cross country. I have high expectations for Secrect and he continues to meet all of them.
Northwest Vintage SE (Dakota)
Dakota is a 2013 progeny from SE Farm’s flagship stallion Clair de Lune. This young lady is maturing nicely after giving her a quiet and slow start into her show career. There are high hopes for this spice cake as she grows into her talent and starts to really show us what she can do.
Prince (Infinite Loop)
It took a couple years for Prince to grow into being on the show string, but he finally did it. He still has his awkward and quirky moments, but so far he has pleasantly surprised us in the show setting. We look forward to what kind of growth he shows us in the future.
