Welcome to Dreams Come True Farm's 2024 Horse Show Results

    DCTF's Sjaantje & her 6 YO son, Hamilton DCTF 
   In his third year of training with Suzy Stafford, Solstice Farm, Hamilton is again wintering in Ocala, continuing his driven dressage and pleasure driving show careers, this season upgrading his vehicle to his mama's antique butter yellow Studebaker carriage.  Still a bit immature physically, he continues in preliminary driven dressage with the goal of moving up to Intermediate this summer. A new event for all of us, yes, I rode along, was the CAA's D'Attelage Sporting Day of Traditional Driving, where there is stationary turnout judging, cross country driving difficulties (obstacles) judging, and a round of cones. We nailed it in turnout, earning the best score of the day!
  

Below is a listing of their 2024 End of Year honors and 2024 event results along with commemorative photos.
