2010 -
I loved the idea of a blog. But time and our reality has shown me I'm not near disciplined enough to keep up with a blog.
So this page will be called "Updates" from now on. It sounds more liberal and forgiving if I don't get to it as
often as I should.
2009 was a great year for Sheridan Oaks Stable. Lots of big wins, lots of new horses and an influx of really great new
people. We are so proud of these riders who put in such great effort and survive the overtime lessons with good humor. All
three of our youth exhibitors qualified for the Affiliate Finals in North Carolina and then advanced on to Oklahoma City.
Tres Moore won a very tough 14-18 class in NC and made us very proud. Javi Melo went on to be Reserve Champion in the 13 &
under class in Oklahoma City and Danielle Cohen was 6th in the same class. We couldn't have been happier for them. Heath Gunnison, our very capable assistant qualified in and won the Rookie Professional
Class on Helen Frame's Izzy Whizzy at the Affiliate Finals.
Nu Doc's Cash and Dave won three Derby classes in 2009 and started 2010 by winning the Intermediate Open Derby
at the Florida Classic. Javi Melo will start showing this great horse in some Rookie Classes this year. Watch for Javi's interview
on Inside Reining after he won the 13 & under Youth Saddle at the Hard Rock Classic. JP Stewart and Enterprise Rooster had an incredible year in the Rookie Classes at the FRHA shows
piling up numerous wins. We will miss him as he takes this year off from showing, but he promises to be back in 2011!! Congratulations to George Webster, Maryln Kaufman, Ed Frawley, and Brianna Leavy
on their new horses. We expect great things from all of you!

ED Frawley on winning the Green Reiner class on Saturday and then coming back and scoring his highest score to date on Sunday.

be second in the Novice Horse Open with a 145. Tres Moore qualified to go to the Finals in OKC with a 140.5 in the 14-18
Youth. Congratulations to Kevin Jewell for
winning the FRHA Futurity in Ocala this month on Wimpy's Little Diamond. (There is no greater sense of security
for a reining trainer than getting to travel with his super talented farrier. Thank you ,Kevin for all you do for the team!!! Big congratulations to Linda Brewer on the purchase of a great new reiner.
We are all so excited for you! Pictures to follow. The
Short Stirrup Reining Class in NC was adorable and we came home pysched to get our little peanuts ready for 2011!! Watch for
