LESSON HORSE OF THE MONTH Festival Bossanova "Boss" |
|
|
Boss is a barn favorite by riders and trainers alike. He is 19 years old and started his career at Miller Equestrian when he was a coming 2 year old. He left the barn for several years and then his owner came back to ride about 4 years ago. Ann asked her how Boss was doing and she said that he was out at pasture up in Oregon. |
|
Ann suggested she bring him down and that was the beginning of what has become a wonderful partnership! Betsy had the chance to bond with Boss while she was in Missouri this year and she is in love with this gelding. And it doesn't hurt that Boss is the son of Ann's all time favorite horse, Fannie. |
