Flashy 14.1 1/2hh chesnut pony mare. Aspen is currently showing her first year of pony hunter and is always in the ribbons. She recently won the first pony medal class she ever went in!

Horses in Unexpected Places
Need to redecorate? Leather, Stone, & Wood... it's a new paint collection by Laurentide/National. And on the cover, a close-up of a hunt-seat rider's boot, leg and horse. The photo shows a glimpse of saddle and rein as well. If you need a new color for your tack room - or living room - perhaps you'll find it there!
