Our Philosophies
At Pair of Aces Stables, we believe strongly in three things; first that no single training strategy works for every horse and rider. With each horse, and each rider, training strategies are going to change to best suit their needs. Horse training is not a science, it is an art, and a flexible strategy and a fresh approach to each new horse, rider and problem allows us to custom-tailor a program that will produce the best results, without using short-cuts and overly stressful or harsh techniques. Second, we believe that starting with a quality product creates the best chance of success. Not just in training horses, where the best training program will produce the best performance, but also in breeding. When breeding sport horses the quality of the dam is just as important as that of the sire, which is why we have used a mare that has proven herself in the show ring to found our breeding program. Third, that horses and riders of every size, type and background can excell-we do not discriminate in our training program, and welcome people and horses from all backgrounds!
