Alaskan Crown is for sale.

Hi Elizabeth,

I just wanted to write to you and tell you that Crown is back to work. Her foot is completely healed and she has front shoes on again. We have started doing just dressage with her, but she will start jumping again next week. We have new pictures of her on her 2nd page. She has really filled out since last year and looks great! I hope to get her to her first schooling horse trial in January and maybe her first recognized event in February.

We also wanted to let you know that she is for sale. Since we are no longer breeding for greys, she really doesn’t fit our breeding program any more-so if you know of someone who may be interested in her let us know.

Talk to you later!

Hi Elizabeth and Barry,

We took Alaskan Crown (Linnea) and Amber (me) cross country schooling today - 100 miles away on a farm in Tallahassee. Today, was a schooling day for a show next weekend.

Crown had been out cubbing but basically I didn't jump her except over a few logs and ditches. Today, she jumped everything. She tends to be lazy if allowed, but the larger jumps get her attention (jumped several 2.6 to 2.9) today. She lifts great and snaps her legs up - doesn't quit anything.

I took her into the arena and jumped every wildly painted jump in the place after jumping cross country. I was very impressed. I figured we would do everything mild at two foot. The neat thing is she flags her tail over every fence as you can see in the pix. She will do well during the winter with more work and getting fitter. Pix are on our web site on Crown's page two.

This has been a big weekend for me. I haven't spent four hours on a horse for many years- then off again today. Things are good.

Talk to you soon.

Hi Elizabeth,

We just wanted to give you an update on Crown. We took her to a hunter pace on April 17th at Misty Morning Hounds in Gainesville, FL along with my Anglo-Arab gelding Foster. She was a perfect lady and did great, even jumping some small logs.

We found out last week that she actually placed third in two rounds and got her first ribbons. In the first round, my mom rode the walk-trot class and I was her outrider. We did a working trot pace the whole mile and Crown led the way with no issues. The only thing she looked at was the water complex because it had a fountain in it.

We are going to start doing more jump work with her in the arena now. She has really matured and is wonderful to ride. I have attached a couple of pictures (they are terrible quality because they were pulled off my video camera). I also attached a picture of our two babies from this year. Our colt, who is chestnut turning grey, is HUGE. His withers are taller than my chest. The filly is small, but she is definitely going to be a racehorse. She likes to gallop.

Several of our smaller mares are for sale now (a couple of them in foal to a 17.1 grey TB, Expensive Hobby; go to www.wintonfarm.com to see this guy) as well as our three 2004 fillies to make room for other eventing prospects. Information is available on our Web site at: www.FoxHavenFarmInc.com

We are getting our business going and are listed on the Horse Motel site now (www.horsemotel.com/Florida.html). We also are about to order a 4 horse head-to-head trailer with a living quarters so that we can do transport. The farm is really starting to come together. I have several cross-country jumps built in one pasture and we have an arena with jumps that is currently grass, but we are going to finish it in sand and add lights.

Hope things are going well there. We’ll talk to you again soon,
