School Horses


Our school horses are the foundation of our riding school. Without them, many children that have passed through our doors would not have learned their beginning riding skills in such a relaxed, friendly environment. We have a wide variety of school horses, from the 13 hh pony up to our 16 hh thoroughbreds. Each serves a purpose and helps kids learn how to ride and deal with school horse quirks.

Bunny Hop, a great beginner pony! Bunny Hop
"Bunny"

Bunny Hop is the favorite pony of many riders here at Evergreen Equestrian Center.  She is a wonderful beginner pony that helps kids learn all about riding from their first lesson all the way through teaching them how to canter with confidence.  Bunny used to show all around the local circuit and was very successful.  We are very lucky to have such a great pony here at Evergreen.

"Derby"

Derby is an older ex-dressage horse that has been at Evergreen for many years.  He is a great horse that anyone can ride, walk-trotters up through people learning how to jump.  He has a bouncy trot and a rocking horse canter that many of our riders really enjoy, as well as a cute jump.

"Nitro"

Nitro is a 14.3h Arab that came to us through a former instructor many years ago and in his first few years at the barn when he wasn’t a school horse, he was jumping up to 3’6”.  He can be quite spunky and many people really enjoy riding him.  With his bouncy trot, smooth canter and frisky personality, Nitro is a great addition to the school horse herd here at Evergreen and proves to be a challenging, yet rewarding mount for all who ride him.

"Ladd"

Ladd is an ex-racehorse that in his older years has proven to be a fantastic school horse.  He loves to jump and is the perfect horse for students to ride over their first jumps.  Ladd goes to all of the schooling shows at the park and almost always brings home the champion ribbon for whatever division he is in and is a great horse to go to your first show on.  With his steady personality, Ladd is the perfect horse for many of our riders, children and adults alike.

Wall Street
"Wally"

Wally is another Arab that we have here and is one of the greatest beginner horses in the barn.  He is another horse that we can call on for any level of rider, beginner walk-trot all the way through advanced jumping students.  In his earlier years, Wally used to do the 4’ jumpers with a previous owner.  He doesn’t jump that big anymore, but he still loves his job and is wonderful for all who ride him.
