Midas achieves his first hall of fame on his 3rd birthday~

[lyn_j]

I want to thank Bruce Abbott from Dawns Chase Farm for training my beautiful boy Clarion The Gold Standard so well and so completely! His 3rd birthday was July 5th and that day he completed his points for his Roadster under Hall of Fame! He then went on to win three more stakes the 7th at Lennie Bertrands show. He won the Stake classes all three days that we drove him. Sunday we gave him off. He has nearly 90 points and 19 stake wins and 3 reserves. His first qualifying show was the NYS Breeders show in May. He will be starting on his Pleasure HOF after the World show in Ohio. Many thanks to all the judges who saw his talent.

Midas, we are so proud to own you and thank Judie Evans of Clarion Collies for allowing us to have you.

Watch for him in Roadster and Pleasure at nationals.

Thanks for letting me share this young horse with you all.

Thanks everyone. I wish I had had him as a yearling and earlier in his two year old year. I didnt get him unting the Area 1 show last year. He has lots of halter points, lots of Sr Champion wins but only a couple grands... seems the younger horses are always getting the grands this year. He would probably be done with that also if he showed earlier as a finer horse. Now that he is mature he has more bone that the youngsters that are winning the grands. He did get one again this weekend, Thanks forum Judge, you know who you are.

We will also keep putting him in halter to get that done.... I ought to be able to find 2 somewhere next season if he doesnt get them this year. My goal for him is HOF in Halter, Roadster and Pleasure. I dont do the other classes like hunter and jumper and liberty or obstacle anymore. I do know a young lady though with VERY long legs who may take him in some of those once his driving deals are done. He is just such an athlete and loves to work!

He IS Lisa!!!! I drove him this past weekend, not in classes, but all around Lennies field. He is like riding a rocket! but you can control him very easily.
