The Farm; Roiville Run

Included in these amenities are, large fully matted stalls with front and back doors for great ventilation and allowing the horses good visibility when they are in. A large outdoor and indoor arena both with synthetic footing. XC schooling field. 3/8 mile turf gallop track. 75' round pen, and a six horse walker. We offer plenty of hacking space, high quality feed and hay, as well as knowledgeable onsite staff.
COMPETITION HORSES
SUNNY SIDE UP
Sunny Side Up "Sunny" is a privately owned 10 year old Irish/TB cross. Purchased in January 2025. Sunny got his start to eventing with Emily King over in the UK. We are currently competing Preliminary and focused on building a long term partnership. Goals for 2026 include AEC as well as Area CH.
IVANKA Z
Ivanka Z "Ivanka" is an 8 year old Zangersheide mare. Ivanka got her start in the jumpers and then switched to eventing last her. She is a very thoughtful, careful mare but has truly grown to love cross country. Currently competing Training level. She is a female version of Cooper, which is as equally as exciting as terrifying. If you know you know.
HASHTAG VERIFIED
Hashtag Verified "Tag" is a nine year old Holsteiner/Irish cross. Tag was started as an event horse and even though he has competed through Modified, he has shown to prefer the dressage which has been the focus for the past year. Goals for 2026 would be his first FEI dressage class. It's always been a dream of mine to earn my Gold Medal on a horse I trained and he may be the one to make that a reality

QUARISMAH
Category A
SOLD : I can't say enough good things about this mare. Qarismah WS is a nine year old Hanoverian Measuring 16hh. She is currently showing second level and schooling third. She also has experience jumping. She has been thoughtfully produced by an AA. She is perfect for an AA Jr or YR who has a busy lifestyle and can't commit to riding 5-6 days a week. Kori is the same horse if ridden everyday or after a few days off. She has lived the amateur horse like style on all accounts. No old injuries, vices, or special shoeing. She is the type of horse everyone wants to have join their family. Five star home is a must. We would love to receive updates from her next person.
Sired by Quite Easy she has the typical great temperament and trainability his off spring are known for having. She went through the AHS/ARS inspection tour in 2019 receiving high marks and was accepted into both the American Hanoverian Society breeding program as well as the American Rhineland Studbook.
SHANNONDALE MAGNUM
Category A
SOLD: Shannondale Magnum "Elliot" is a 14 year old Irish Sport Horse. Elliot has competed successfully through the 3* level. Elliot is a cross country machine and is best suited at this point in his career to teach a Jr/AA the love of the sport and bring them up the levels through Modified. Very sound, great feet and low maintenance makes him a great addition to any program

SOLD: Calling all fox hunters. I have two experienced hunt horses for sale in Georgetown KY. Both were imported in 2020 for an AA. Life plans have changed leaving us motivated to find great homes for these two lovely geldings.
